Changes were made at RHS, but the campus still held the same meaning for us. The Main and Humanities buildings each got a new coat of paint, and the Shop building had a new roof. But es- sentially the campus was the same. We still complained about going from the Vo-Tech to the Humanities or climbing to the top of the Commons in a five- minute passing period. And, we all complained about how cold the build- ings were in the winter. Despite the complaints, there was an underlying sense of security about the old place. Many of our parents were graduated from here and have been taking us to games since we were toddlers. No matter how much repair work is done, how much the curriculum changes, or how many people pass through its halls, the campus will always add a touch of tradition to its current students and to the community. ◄ Opposite page: Finlay Field is quiet and serene for a moment. ◄ The Main stands stately overlooking the quad. ◄ Trees between the field and Band room tower majesti- cally. ▼ The Commons mural was the work of severed art classes. ▼ Humanities looks out at the parking lot and highway.

What we have learned Is like a handful of earth. While what we have yet to learn Is like the whole world. — Avvaiyar, Indian poet
