Raiders Connecting Raiders (RCR)
RCR (Raiders Connecting Raiders) is an Advisor Class in which all students will be randomly placed with a Teacher Advisor in a group of approximately 15 students all from the same grade. The purpose of RCR is to foster school spirit and participation, model and value citizenship and responsibility, build community, encourage leadership, and have everyone be a part of the Family of Raiders. It is the goal of RCR to help change the culture and climate of the YHRS to promote a caring and respectful school.
We will meet approximately 30 times, at different times throughout the school day and year and for varying lengths of time dependent upon the activity assigned to that specific RCR day. There will be an altered timetable to accommodate our Raider Connecting Raider sessions. On these days, a seventh period will be added to the timetable whereby the usual six periods in a day will be shortened. These schedules will be posted on our TV screens as well as posted throughout the hallways to alert you of the special times. They are usually posted a day in advance.
RCR requires mandatory attendance. The attendance policy applies for this scheduled class as any other class. We recommend that students take a picture of the revised schedule when they are posted using their electronic devices to ensure they are on time coming back from lunch breaks or spares.
