Memories

Great classmates — many still close friends. Interesting and challenging teachers; close to beach and suf; did not want to graduate. For many years, I thought my four years at RUHS were what all high school students experienced. Now I am convinced that we students od RUHS were most fortunate. Our teachers and coaches were all personable and encouraged us to enjoy and excel in math and science. All of my closest friends went on to universities and have had successful careers because of our schooling at RUHS. I am proud to have graduated from RUHS and those four years were some of my most enjoyable years. Thank you RUHS.
