Here is the quarterly letter from the Alumni Association President, Teresa Gemignani '71
Happy End of Summer!
I hope everyone has survived the extraordinary heat of this summer! I know that I did not tolerate it very well. I swear it was never this hot growing up! Somehow, we all played outside and rode our bikes no matter what the day was as long as it didn't rain. I hope the Fall brings us cooler weather and a bit more rain. Our water resources are good, but more rain wouldn't hurt our lawns and gardens.
August brings the beginning of another school year - our 113th! We look forward to seeing more changes at the High School on the Hill. Many of you saw that the Old Gym was demolished due to age and structure soundness. There will be a new 2 story classroom located there. It will cover that location and the swimming pool. This spring is when the pool will be demolished, but a new pool is being built and new tennis courts. The tennis team will be able to stay on campus to practice and compete! We can look forward to many changes, which we hope will be for the improvement of the school.
The Association is looking forward to a new year! We are in the process of getting requests for The Teachers’ Wish List. Those will be reviewed by the Treasurer and a committee. Then the awards will go out quickly to the teachers. We appreciate all your donations to our wish list that come in with your membership renewals.
We have two events each year: The Winter Luncheon in February; and the Summer BBQ in June. This year we will be changing the time on the event because of the weather. Too darn hot! Please watch for the new date. Also, we have had a suggestion for an additional event. We will look into having a fun event. We will have more on this coming in the future.
Lastly, you might see some flyers included with the newsletter for the RHS Band. The Band Boosters have asked to have their events published and distributed to our membership. This will give you the opportunity to support and listen to our excellent Band and Band Teacher.
Have a great Fall and New School Year!
