Rachel Green was presented with a scholarship from the Lewis "Eddie" Winstead Memorial Fund today. The scholarship is given in memory of Eddie Winstead. Each year the scholarship committee chooses to award the scholarship to students who excel academically and athletically and would have benefited from Eddie's training, guidance, teaching, and mentorship.
Green is an excellent student who plays tennis and soccer at RCS. She plans to attend UNC-Chapel Hill in the fall. We are proud of her! Thank you to the Winstead family for coming each year to share their mission and present this scholarship to our students.
The middle school soccer and softball scrimmage games scheduled for today against Orange Middle School have been canceled.

Tomorrow is $2 jeans day for high school students. ONLY high school students are allowed to wear jeans. No middle school students should be wearing jeans.
