RCHS GATE Student Leaders spent the day yesterday with Mount Vernon Elementary School 3rd graders for Environmental Day at Maywood Nature Reserve. MVES 3rd graders had a great day of learning environmental lessons, playing predator-prey games, inspecting insects, and collecting creek critters!

The rain may have kept MVES 2nd graders from going to Maywood yesterday. However, the rain couldn’t keep RCHS GATE student leaders from bringing Maywood to them!!

Congratulations to these FFA seniors as they pursue higher education in agriculture-related fields! 🎉 Wishing you all the best on this exciting journey ahead! #rocketlearnerstorocketleaders
