Mrs. Westerhof's Biology students were studying survivorship curves and comparing the results of parenting vs. non-parenting. They blew bubbles to create "children" and then timed how long they stayed intact both with and without student help. Later, they graphed results and compared their curves to other species.
Today our Leadership Class welcome our newest Rockets with a breakfast and information on how to get involved at RPHS. 🚀Welcome to RPHS! 🚀

Some of the members of our theater arts program had the opportunity to attend the Michigan Thespian Festival this weekend and had a great time! The students were able to experience up to 8 different workshops, watch two mainstage shows and a student showcase, and receive information about college fine arts programs.
Charles Jones received superior ratings for his performance of "Diva's Lament" from the musical, Spamalot. Avery Luna received superior ratings for her contrasting monologues "Beauty and Perfection" and "Ice Queen" from Flowers in the Desert. All students represented the Reeths-Puffer community well.
