RCHS Athletics: Seniors Liam Gurley and Clayton Chase received IBCA Academic Allstate Honorable Mention for Boys Basketball! Congratulations!
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

Thanks to a grant from the Rush County Community Foundation to purchase a refrigerated drink dispenser, students in Dr. Meek’s Advanced Physical Conditioning classes and various sports teams are able to have protein shakes after their workouts. This allows for the protein to be premade and served cold on site immediately after workouts to help support athletic development. This wouldn't have been possible without the RCCF and the generous donors who support the Rush County Youth Athletic Fund. Thank you!
RCHS has inducted 28 students into National Honor Society tonight. We had some fantastic speeches from Senior members Olivia Cooper, Jasmine Cooper, Sam Pavey, Eli Pavey, and Cate Neuman. Congratulations to all students! Thank you Mrs. Tillison for sponsoring NHS!

Students who are eligible for the ISTAR award are able to nominate one teacher that has made a lasting impact on their education. Many times, the students select a teacher from high school. This year, Mr. Cook and Mrs. Meek were excited to make a trip to Rushville Elementary School to deliver a letter! The letter was written by the student to explain how Mrs. Wallace has been the most influential teacher in this student's ENTIRE school experience! Keep being amazing, Mrs. Wallace! Our students are so grateful to have you!

Each year, many college-bound students from Rush County are recipients of scholarships from the Ora T. Lower and Dessie H. Lower Memorial Scholarship Fund as well as the William S. Coleman and Lillian R. Coleman Memorial Scholarship Fund. Mr. and Mrs. Lower were prominent members of the farming community and distinguished leaders of Homer. Dr. and Mrs. Coleman were distinguished community leaders in Carthage and Rush County. The separate Lower and Coleman wills provided significant funds for the education of Rush County Youth.
Since the first awards were made for the 1968-1969 school year, scholarships totaling over $6,792,318 have been awarded to Rush County students seeking higher education. In accordance with the intent established in the wills, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. administers both scholarship funds, with local persons serving on the selection committees. The Scholarship Committees meet annually to review all the applications received before April 1. Scholarships are then distributed on or before December 31 each year.
Any students of Rush County who are pursuing higher education and training beyond high school are eligible to apply. Scholarships are available only to undergraduates. All students, including former recipients, must reapply each year for consideration.

Big things are happening at RCHS!
Last April, our Early College team completed a rigorous interview process with CELL at the University of Indianapolis. Rushville Consolidated High School was then selected as one of just 15 schools out of more than 100 applicants to join the Rural Early College Network (RECN 2.0), a grant-funded initiative supporting our journey toward earning the Early College Endorsement.
Next year’s freshman class — the Class of 2030 — will be the first cohort of Rushville University! Stay tuned for more information about dual credits, the Indiana College Core, and the opportunities our current and incoming students have!
