The community is asking for your help to get a crosswalk put in near the Love Community Center! It can take up to five years for a stoplight to be installed, so the community is now working towards a safe crosswalk option. Please read the article below to learn how you can help keep Rushville safe!

29 RCHS Students participated in Rushville Manufacturing Day featuring TRANE, Corteva, INTAT, and Copeland. Many career opportunities are available at each of these facilities.

RCHS has the motto "Lions Leave it Better". No one embodies this more than our custodians. Our custodial staff at RCHS are exceptional. When asked what they like most about working at RCHS, they all mentioned helping our staff and students. Curt and Haley worked in the heat this summer to make sure the gym was ready to go in August. There were some HOT days in the gym and outside, but they were all in every day! We are excited that Erin has joined the Memorial Gym staff this year! We are so thankful to these three who take such pride in our facilities. Mike is our head custodian at the main building and if there is every a question on ANYTHING- we radio Mike because he will know what to do. Our school is left SPARKLING each and every day. Katina, Andre, Bob, Steve, and Medina take such care in their section of the building and we are so thankful for them. Please join us in expressing our gratitude to all of our custodial staff. They do more than we will ever realize. Thank you for all you do each and every day!

To the Rush County Schools Community,

We’re pleased to share that power has been fully restored to all of our buildings. We want to sincerely thank our students, teachers, and staff for their patience and cooperation during the outage.

Our Food Service Department is working diligently to prepare lunches and ensure all students are served as quickly as possible. We appreciate everyone’s understanding and flexibility as we return to our normal routine.

Thank you for your continued support.

We are aware of a power outage that is impacting only those schools in the town of Rushville. Currently, we are collecting information to make an educated decision about today. We will keep everyone posted.

Picture retake day at RCHS is Tuesday, October 7th. Please talk to Mrs. Tillison if you have any questions!
