Today's Announcements
- RBHS Parents! We are looking for parent chaperones for the upcoming Court Warming Dance on Saturday, February 16th. If you have some time to share, please signup using the link below. Thank you so much for your support of our students and our school!
- RBHS Families: The Debate Team needs your help! This weekend, 2/8-2/9, we are hosting the annual Rock Bridge Invitational in which high schools from around the state will compete against one another in speech and debate events. You can help us by signing up to volunteer any amount of time to judge these awesome kids. Many people signed up last year as a result of our open call in the Info Bruin, and I think they would tell you they enjoyed their time. By going to this link www.tinyurl.com/y7gcjwvc,you will see the time slots where we are still in need of judges. If you are willing and able, the team would be appreciative of your time. No judging experience is required. As a thank you, there is a lovely hospitality lounge with food and drink. If you see a time slot(s) that you could judge, please contact Ben Niewoehner (Speech and Debate Coach) at bniewoehner@cpsk12.org to express interest. Thanks!
