    March Madness!

    March Madness!
    Mrs. Pendleton

    During March, the annual NCAA college basketball tournament takes place, and it is most widely known as March Madness. Here at RHS we try to bring this event to life by involving both staff members and students. 

    When approaching the end of the third quarter it’s important to bring something fun to the table, especially when almost every staff member and student is struggling to make it to spring break. 

    As a school we have been participating in March Madness for about 3-4 years. All thanks to Mrs. Pendleton and Mr. Wright for working as a team to give the school something to look forward to every March. 

    This year’s free throw shooter is Mrs. Vasche. With all the votes in, all of the participants are betting on how many free throws Mrs. Vasche can make.

    On March 18, the first bracket was posted, revealing all of the guesses, betting against Mrs. Vasche and her ability to make some baskets.

    Superfan will continue to update us of the upcoming March Madness brackets as the week continues. 

    Let’s hear from Mrs. Vasche, Vice Principal, and this year’s free throw shooter, “I’m really happy that they chose me to do it because it was a lot of fun, and it’s exciting to see what people guess and to interact with them.”

    As the month continues, we will soon find out if Mrs. Vasche can prove all the participants wrong.
