Bulldogs Care -- Even During Break
Members of the RCS eighth grade team today delivered items donated by RCS eighth grade students, Cub Scout Pack 260 and Girl Scout Troop 674 to the Ronald McDonald House (RMH) in Durham. After delivering the donated items, teachers Sara Morrow, Charissa Denny, and Kara Roberts, along with members of their families, baked treats for those staying at the RMH. The RCS teachers said it was a sobering experience to hear about the experiences of the families who are spending this special time of year at the Ronald McDonald House. We are incredibly #bulldogproud of this group's efforts to make the holidays a little brighter for others.
