Hey, RPS high schoolers! Did you know you could make $15/hour and get elective credit toward graduation by working with our School Aged Child Care (SACC) program for the 2024-2025 school year?

JM competed at Farmington yesterday and it was truly a testament to how hard these amazing students are working! But also…our novices have been on fire all season! I’m in awe of everything they’ve accomplished thus far. JM took 1st in team sweeps and had multiple placements! Go, Fight, Speak!!!! 🚀❤️
