After the completion of the 11th grade Writing SOL on March 7 and 8, a field test was conducted by the Virginia Department of Education, which was administered to junior students. This field test resembled the SOL that the students had just taken; however, both parts were administered to students on the same day. The goal of this field test was to determine if both parts of the test could be administered to future students on the same day, and still receive the same scores.
The theater department will be presenting its version of the musical “Chicago: Teen Edition” from March 23 through the 25 in the RCHS auditorium. Each show will begin at 7 p.m., and tickets will be $8 at the door and children 5 and under enter for free.
The RCHS Student Art Show is currently being held at Earth, Fire, and Spirit Gallery in downtown Lexington. The show will be open until the end of March. At the end of March, a separate art show will be held in the RCHS commons for student artwork to be displayed.
