A few parents, students and faculty travelled to South Boston, VA to get a truck full of desks, donated by the old Halifax County High School! We received enough desks to outfit and replace old desks in 4 of our classrooms! Our teachers are thrilled to have these desks and to be able to replace aging ones in their classrooms! Thank you to everyone who us load and unload the desks and to the old Halifax County High School for donating them!

Congratulations to the RCS Outstanding Teenagers of 2026, Elizabeth Ess, Caroline Cates, Karrie Obie, and Madeline Watson, and the RCS Outstanding Young Educators of 2026, Alecia Knaub and Alex Porter!

Karrie Obie was presented with a scholarship from the Lewis "Eddie" Winstead Memorial Fund yesterday afternoon. The scholarship is given in memory of Eddie Winstead. Each year, the scholarship committee chooses to award the scholarship to students who excel academically and athletically and would have benefited from Eddie's training, guidance, teaching, and mentorship.
Obie is a strong student and an incredible multisport athlete, playing basketball and softball. She will be attending UNC-Greensboro in the fall to play softball. We have been so lucky to have her talents at RCS for many years and are so proud of her and all of her accomplishments! Thank you to the Winstead family for coming in each year to present this scholarship!

We finally got to recognize and celebrate Alexis Vander Poppen today! Back in September, Vander Poppen was named the Distinguished Young Woman of Roxboro! Then, in January she was named the Distinguished Young Woman of North Carolina!
Alexis' mom (and dad who was there virtually) joined our high school students and staff as they gathered around the atrium to celebrate these amazing accomplishments!! We are so #BulldogProud of Alexis!
