The power has been restored! Thank you for your patience!
Power Update: Per Duke Energy, we should have power back within the hour. We will update you if that changes.
We are currently experiencing a power outage. Duke Power is aware and is currently troubleshooting the problem. We will update you within the hour about the operation of school for the remainder of the day.
Our Jazz Band performed in the Jim Ketch Jazz Festival on Saturday, May 10th at the North Carolina School of Science and Math. They represented RCS well and were able to get helpful comments from professional jazz musicians. They were also able to listen to other school jazz bands in our region. They did a great job! #BulldogProud

Happy National School Nurse Day!
Today we celebrate the incredible Nurse Christie Perkins!
Whether it’s managing daily health needs, responding to emergencies, or simply offering a calm presence, Nurse Perkins is a steady, compassionate force who helps keep our students safe and supported every day.
Her dedication to the health and well-being of every student doesn't go unnoticed, and we are beyond lucky to have her on our team.
We are excited to host our Bulldog 5K this Saturday, May 10th at 9:00 a.m. Early registration has ended but you can still participate in the event, but shirts will be limited and not guaranteed.
In addition to the race, there will be snacks, 50/50 raffle, and a local coffee truck. Unfortunately, the community yard sale is postponed to a later date but we will still have lots of fun! This will be a fun event for the whole family!
