Week of: 4/8 – 4/14
Welcome Back!
Spring
Break ended in the most KY Spring of ways…with snow! That said, the snow melted
quickly and it looks like a busy and nice week ahead. We have some important
dates in the coming weeks. We have seven weeks left of school; a total of 33
school days.

** HS Prom Note **
Due to the Lady Panther Softball
Team’s win in the All A Regional Championship and advancement to the All A
State Championship Tournament which falls on the same date as Prom, several
options are being explored for an alternate date. Prom will not be scheduled at
a date before April 28th and may remain on that date if a better
overall date is not available. A final date will be made known to all students
by Wednesday 4/11.
Band Travels to Disney for Spring
Break
RHS Band
Director Brian Brown and Assistant
Band Director Trevor Cardwell, along
with a host of parents, took the RHS Band to Disney World this Spring Break
where the highly decorated Panther Marching Band performed in a parade at Epcot
Center in the Magic Kingdom. The performance capped off a marching band season
that saw the Panthers advance to state as well as earning honors upon honors
for individual performances. Band numbers at RHS and RMS are at all-time highs
and the addition of Mr. Cardwell to the Stevenson staff as a 5th
grade band director has over 40 students participating, a staggering number
when one considers that that means that one of every two future 6th
graders is in the band program.
