A great opportunity for current 7th and 8th grade students! Tennessee Tech is hosting a GEARUP Summer Camp from June 8th-10th. Free admission for all of our 7th and 8th grade students 💜💛

You may have noticed a few extra students around RES lately! At the beginning of the year, Rickman Ruff to Fluff officially opened for business.
In Mrs. Todd’s ISM class, students are gaining valuable hands-on experience grooming a variety of dog breeds. When they aren’t grooming dogs, they’re working with puppies on basic obedience training and learning the fundamentals of small animal care.
This exciting opportunity allows students to develop real-world skills while building confidence, responsibility, and a strong work ethic.
