Our Yoga class took a field trip to Breathe and Believe Fitness today to practice yoga outside of the classroom! 🧘‍♀️

Our Health Education classes partnered with the STATS program to learn about the health risks and side effects of nicotine, marijuana, and alcohol through hands on activities.

The Spring Band Concert did not disappoint. The show was a beautiful display of excellence. Talent, hard work, passion, and connection came together to create an amazing experience. Great job Jazz Band, Symphony Band, and Wind Ensemble!

Wow! Our students were amazing in the Pops Concert tonight. There was so much talent, skill, and bravery. What a performance!

5 RPHS students competed in the Annual Muskegon County Law Day Speech Competition, all making Reeths-Puffer proud. They spoke on the topic of the Rule of Law and the American Dream. Keeley Cole placed 3rd in the Senior division. Way to go Rockets!

In addition to building an ROV, our Robotics Team also has to write a nine page technical document, and create a poster to show a real-world application of their ROV! Students have poured many hours and a lot of creativity their competition poster, and now they need a boost from our community.

If you’re willing, please take a moment to vote for their poster using the link below. Students gain points by the number of votes that they can receive.

Here is the link: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/spc26-real-world

Voters would select 404HS as the team to review, and there are sliders to work with under the list of links of posters.

Your support means more to them than you know.

Happy Earth Day!

Today, our biology classes traded in their desks for gloves and trash bags as they worked together to clean up our school campus. It was amazing to see their teamwork and dedication to making a difference right here in our own community!

Trash doesn’t just “go away.” When litter is left behind, it can:
• Harm wildlife who may ingest or get tangled in it
• Pollute our soil and water systems
• Break down into microplastics that enter the food chain
• Take years, or even centuries. to decompose

By taking action today, our students are learning that even small efforts can have a big impact on protecting our environment.

We are so proud of these students for stepping up, getting their hands dirty, and showing what it means to care for the planet we all share. 🌱💚

(Check out the photos to see their hard work in action!)
