We've made it to the end of another year! To celebrate, we wanted to put together a special edition of The Bite to talk about just SOME of the highlights of this amazing year! This really only scratches the surface of all the amazing things that happened at RCS this year, but if we had mentioned every single team, student, and teacher who did incredible things this year, we would have been talking for hours! We are so thankful for everyone who has made this year so special! Happy Summer!
