Ms. Teague, Mrs. Durand, Mrs. Meek, and Mr. Cook were proud to attend the Indiana Academic All-Star Banquet to recognize 2026 Senior, Conner DeWitt. Each school nominates a student and Conner was selected for recognition as a Regional All Star! Conner is one of the Top 90 students in the state! This is a HUGE honor and Conner is going to do amazing things after graduation. Congratulations, Conner! We are so proud of you! #LionsLeaveItBetter

What a great performance by our Academic Superbowl members! All teams placed second in their respective categories. We will know the results later on if they qualify for state, but we are so proud of these students!

Congratulations to our latest Lions SHARE winners!

We had our Academic Excellence Banquet a few weeks ago! Thank you to the Rushville Rotary for this event. A special thank you to Zuzana Smith for being the guest speaker! RCHS has been phasing in recognizing students with the Latin Honor system. Seniors still had the traditional top ten while the other grades had students with above a 4.0 recognized. Congratulations to all students!

Who says Math can't be fun?! See the following message from Ms. Adams: "I tried a new project this year with Algebra 2 students and I think they did really well!! Students created a Mario level using piecewise functions and background using quadratic and/or absolute value transformations. They then had to analyze the functions they created."

Congratulations to Kate Sexton! She is our next early RCHS graduate! The special visitor for her photo was her daughter and she helped Kate ring the graduation bell! Congratulations!

Happy Early Graduation to Colton Bates! Great job, Colton!

We want to make you aware that our front triangle parking lot will be closed Friday 4/17 due to a helicopter landing! You heard that right! Mr. Orme brings in different occupations to have Lunch and Learn with students as well as highlighting those professions on Career Corner. Tomorrow, his guest will be Zak Montgomery from the Indiana National Guard. He will be landing a helicopter in our front parking lot. There is not an emergency, so we wanted to let you know that yes- there will be a helicopter landing and taking off in front of our school! He will arrive mid morning and leave before the end of the school day. Thank you!

Again, congratulations to our staff and students of the month! We posted the videos celebrating these individuals on our facebook page, so if you are interested, please check those out to see why they were selected! Congratulations Jentri, Jake, and Curt! #LionsLeaveItBetter

KFC (kids for careers) recently presented RIASEC to 6th grade students at RES.   Students completed the assessment, and learned more about careers that match their personality and interests.

Mrs. Meek hung out with the Ag Power students today! Wyatt taught Mrs. Meek about stick welding (which she says is VERY difficult). Kids are getting great experiences at RCHS! #lionsleaveitbetter

A group of RCHS students recently toured Ball State University. "Exploring futures, one campus at a time." Thank you, Mr. Orme, for organizing these field trips!
