Message from Mr. Jeff: Welcome back to the Library!

  • Summer Reading BINGO forms (for returning students who participated) are due COMPLETED to me by Fri Sep. 6 so there's plenty of time (Bingo print out is attached).
  • I'm also looking for some volunteers to help out with my weekly library classes.  Unlike some other volunteering opportunities I'm looking for folks who can make a weekly commitment or every other week commitment though we do have some need for one-time special events as well.  Please complete this Volunteer Google Form if interested (or join the Kontsella Library Committee). 
  • If you're new to our school and have any questions concerning the library please reach out.
March with RHS @ Oakland Pride, September 8 
Save the date! September 8 from 10-1. Come roll, scoot, bike or walk with the LGBTQ Affinity group in the Oakland Pride parade! All students and families are welcomed and encouraged to show their RHS Pride! This year, we’ll be marching with other OUSD schools. If you’d like to join the LGBTQ affinity group for Pride or for future events please reach out to Kristan Cassady and/or join the LGBTQ Konstella committee.
