Two RHS Students Get out in Front

of the Micro Credential Game

RJSHS Technology Teacher Lisa Rose continues to lead the way in innovative learning through technology for the district. Recently, an emphasis of “micro-credentials” has become a prevalent topic in education. This focuses on online learning for students in which they are able to obtain certificates that are reflective of mastery of essential skills and topics, earned through industry developed curriculum. Recently, Bryant Garcia and Dixie Hopkins passed the Microsoft Office Specialist (MOS) Excel 2016 exam, earning micro credentials that certifies that they have a proficient mastery of this program.

Keep Those Bottle Tops!

The RJSHS Family Resource Center needs your help! They are asking that you please save your bottle caps from all Coke products and turn them in to Mrs. Debbie Browder at RHS. These will go a long way in helping with what appear to be deep budget cuts to the FRYSC by the most recently proposed state budget. Tops may be dropped off at the front office.
