Meet your child's teachers, tour the building, ask questions! We love involved parents and so does your son/daughter! It's important!

Our "After School Homework" program begins on Tuesday, September 7th! Parents will receive a phone call (if these were your wishes on the form you signed) to inform you if your son/daughter was assigned. Students assigned will report to Mrs. Abke's Room 208 at 2:45. They must stay in her room until 3:30! Bring additional work to complete or a book to read once your finish your late work. Remember.... this is a positive program! A second chance to get homework assignments completed and get a grade instead of a zero!

Student Council
Attention All Students! Would you like to be more involved at RJHS? Student Council may be the answer for you! Our Student Council last year was in charge of many activities such as spirit days, dances, pep assemblies, canned food drives, OAA spirit week and our end of the year dodge ball tournament. If you have great ideas and want to see them implemented at school, check out the Student Council link on the JH website page. There's information on how to be involved with Student Council!

NEW OHIO IMMUNIZATION LAW FOR IN-COMING 7TH GRADERS!
Required for admission in the 2010/2011 school year are:
Tdap or Td booster shots for 7th graders!
Of the two, Tdap (tetanus, diphtheria and pertussis) is preferred because it provides vital protection against pertussis (also known as the whooping cough). www.odh.gov
Proof of this immunization must be presented/submitted at 7th grade orientation!
