What’s great about RCSS… School Board members who take the time to visit a school and present a STAR3 student award in person because the student was too sick to attend the board meeting.
Her teacher shared this quote with me: "She kept the award on her desk all day and asked me a ton of questions about it—'Can you hang it? What’s it made of?'
Thank you RCSS Board members for putting Students First in All YOU Do!
