We regret to inform you that the Ark Valley Showcase has been cancelled. We apologize for any disappointment this may cause both participants and spectators. We look forward to seeing you all next year!
The RF PK-12 campus has undergone many changes over the past couple of years. One major change involves the south side of the building, which previously served as the service road for access to the old football field. This area now features extensive landscaping, including a large lawn for students to enjoy. As a result, the service road has been narrowed and is designated for staff and service vehicles only. Important Reminder: Students, parents, and the general public are not permitted to use the service road unless specific permission has been granted. Thank you for helping us maintain safety and ensure the proper use of campus facilities!
