CAMPUS BUZZER (Visitor Access, Health & Attendance Office Pick Up)

We are very excited to implement the new campus security enhancement to RUHS front office.

 

Visitors-please ring the doorbell (blue button) to the right of the front double doors and gray pillar that are facing our small visitor parking lot on Sea Hawk Way. Our office staff will verify your visit and upon verification you will be granted access. You must use the door on the right-hand side and pull to open. This is the only door that you may use for access to the lobby. As a reminder please be sure to always have a valid ID for your visit. Office hours are 8am-4pm.

 

Health Office Pick Up-please have a valid ID to show our health clerk.  Upon entry to the lobby our staff will buzz you through the second door entrance to our admin building. The health office will be straight down the hallway, first office on the left-hand side.

 

Attendance Office Pick Up-please have a valid ID to show our attendance office. Upon entry to the lobby our staff will buzz you through the second door entrance to our admin building. The attendance window will be straight down the hallway, last window on the left before the two gray double doors (inside the building). Please note you will be asked to wait outside, or in your car for your student. ALL students must check in with the attendance office to receive their yellow off grounds slip before leaving campus. For your convenience, you may also call (310) 798-8665 x 4018 to have a student called out.

 

ASB Finance Office- Upon entry to the lobby our staff will buzz you through the second door entrance to our admin building. The ASB finance office will be straight down the hallway, last window on the right-hand side before the gray double doors (inside the building). Office hours are M-F 8am-4pm closed for lunch from 11:30am-12:30pm. Please note during school snack and lunch hours ASB will need to help students first and wait times may occur.

 

Thank you for helping make RUHS safe!  

 

ADVERTISING (Yearbook)

Senior Families,

There are a few Yearbook deadlines you should be aware of, please carefully read the information below:

 

Portraits

Treasured Moments Photography is still scheduling senior portraits until October 1st. If you have not yet scheduled a portrait sitting, you may do so by following this LINK and joining the waitlist. If you have already taken your portrait, please choose which you'd like to appear in the yearbook by following this LINK. The password is your student's ID #. If you do not choose a photo, one will be chosen for you. 

 

The RUHS Yearbook only uses portraits taken by Treasured Moments in the senior portrait section of the yearbook, and no other photos are allowed. If your family has demonstrated financial need, please email [email protected] to arrange a fee waiver. 

 

Senior Ads

Senior Ads for the Yearbook are on sale until December 7th. These are optional, personalized well-wishes with photos that parents/families create to honor their grads, and the ads appear in the back of the yearbook. If you choose to purchase a senior ad, you will create the ad yourself using the Varsity website, (code: 6724) following the directions on the website. You must complete your ad before purchasing. If you have questions, please contact Varsity directly, since the school yearbook staff doesn’t handle senior ads.

If the student editors deem an ad inappropriate, you will be contacted and asked to change it. If you choose not to do so, the ad will not be published, nor will you be reimbursed by Varsity or Redondo Union.

 

Thank you!

CSF

The CSF honor roll registration window has been moved by one day and will now be open through Thursday, October 1st because Ms. V. will NOT be available to stamp on Tuesday, 9/29. You have three more days to apply: Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday. 

 

Students in grades 10-12 who qualify and want to join should bring their completed application and their June report card to room 706 at lunch (no transcripts allowed, as they don't have citizenship marks; Ms. Valentekovich can do a grade check if you absolutely can't find your report card, but that takes longer, so please bring the report card if you have it). The stamped form and $5 (check, credit card, or cash) are due no later than 9/30. You may submit this at the ASB finance office or, if you have exact change and don't need a receipt, to Ms. V. in room 706. No late applications will not be accepted, and registration is not retroactive. 

Freshmen already have their CJSF status from the June report card and should not apply this semester. Please wait until you have a RUHS report card from semester one to be eligible for CSF. 

 

Applications are available in room 706 or on the RUHS website (under Programs and Activities).

National PTA Art Contest: REFLECTIONS

Calling all creatives! The RUHS PTSA Reflections Committee is excited to invite you to participate in this year's program by submitting original work in these areas:


- Dance Choreography
- Literature
- Photography
- Film Production
- Music Composition
- Visual Arts

 

The theme this year is, "What My Culture Means to Me." Culture is a broad subject with tons of room for interpretation (just like art!) so run with it and think outside the box! If it seems too broad, maybe start by asking yourself: What culture(s) do I exist within? Have I helped start or shape a microculture? How has macroculture shaped me? 

 

This program is open to all students. The Accessible Arts Division was created to ensure that all students, including those with disabilities, have an opportunity to share their voice through the arts. All students with IEP's or 504's (under IDEA or ADA), are invited to enter the Accessible Art division, from pre-k to 12th grade.

 

Entries will be accepted until mid-October, please submit your work and your application through THIS LINK. Email questions to: [email protected].

 

 

JOIN RUHS PTSA and support our mission to positively impact all students and families!

Stay Connected!

 

STUDENT DROP OFF ITEMS
