Opening Week 2023-24
Welcome back, Wildcats! It was a joyous week at RCDS, as students, faculty, and staff arrived on campus to start the 2023-24 school year.
On Tuesday, all Upper Schoolers returned to campus and were greeted by the Peer Leaders with blue and gold spirit.
The Upper School Club Fair took place on Wednesday and was an energetic showcase of the various interested and activities students can explore at RCDS.
The joy of learning and community continued on Thursday with the arrival or Lower and Middle Schoolers.
The week concluded with our first Fun Friday of the year! Parent/guardian volunteers and students greeted arriving community members with festive signs and cheer.
It was a great week of seeing those Wildcat smiles!
