Thank you to Suzy Thompson for this picture of the RBHS Marching Band at the Morton Pumpkin Festival.

8th Grade students are being certified in CPR this week in Mr. Hunter's Health class.

Although Sowers 4th grade students weren't alive to experience the tragic events of 9/11, we want them to understand the impact it had on the world. Through video, newspaper articles, and television clips, 4th grade students learn about 9/11 and how it forever changed our country.

Thank you to Suzy Thompson for a great picture of the RBHS marching band.

RBJHS Baseball game vs. Flanagan scheduled for Saturday has been cancelled.
The soccer match scheduled for tonight again East Peoria has been moved to the Eastside Centre. There will only be a Varsity match. Start time is 6:30 PM. The match was moved due to the extreme heat conditions that are forecasted for this afternoon.
