Attention RFCSC Parents,
The Athletics and Extra-Curricular guidelines have been updated on our Return to Learn plan. The plan now states:
"Students participating in extracurricular must be aware of guidelines afforded by IHSAA regarding eligibility requirements as they relate to the minimum number of periods students must attend class in-person to remain eligible for sanctioned participation when the schools are open. Meaning all students, whether students choose option A (attend class at school) or option B (attend eLearning/remote class) may participate in extra-curricular if they have completed a release form, meet IHSAA requirements of attendance in eLearning/remote class or in person class, and maintain eligibility. "
To view the complete plan please visit: www.rfcsc.k12.in.us
Tonight's HS Graduation will be live streamed at 6:30pm on the HS Athletics Page via Facebook Live. Updated start time 6:30pm

Happy 4th of July Ingots!

Happy Father’s Day Ingots!

Congratulations to Ms. Kristina Ralston, River Forest School Corporation's Teacher of the Year!
Dr. Pitcock shared these remarks about this exemplary teacher: "Kristina has been in the River Forest Community School District for 11 years as a teacher of Science. She currently also serves as Department Chair for her department. She is a student-centered educator with a tireless work ethic. Students have come to expect quality lessons and full utilization of instructional minutes. She is an advocate for students, parents, and colleagues. Kristina Ralston is one of the educators at River Forest High School setting the pace for student success."
Our 8th grade farewell is just around the corner. On Tuesday, June 2 from 4-6:30 the staff at RFMS will say goodbye to the class of 2024. The drive around "reverse parade" will take place between the hours of 4 and 6:30. Don't worry, it is not a 2 and a half hour ceremony. Families are encouraged to come any time between those hours.
The parade circle will be located in the RF Football parking lot. Students will receive any awards from their academic teachers, winter sports awards from Mr. Wielgus, and receive their official Certificate of Completion from Mr. Horka and Mr. Milenkoff at the end.
In practicing social distancing, students and families must stay in their vehicles and staff will only be able to take pictures with students next to their cars.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the main office.
Attention any student who borrowed a chromebook from the middle or high school or needs to return school related items:
There will be two dates , Friday, May 29 and Monday, June 1. Both days the times for drop off will be from 9am to 1:30pm and will be at the middle school entrance by the MPR (closest to the river.)
If you borrowed a chromebook please make sure to return the chromebook and the charger.
Any high school student who is enrolled in summer school may keep their chromebook to use throughout the summer session.
The high school will be offering summer school this year and it begins Monday, June 8 and runs until Friday, July 10. HS summer school will be online using our A+ software, the same system we use for credit recovery. Summer school is open to any high school student who has failed a previous class and is looking to regain a credit.
Email up to two choices to Mr. Moore at jmoore@rfcsc.k12. in.us or Mr. Horka at rhorka@rfcsc.k12.in.us

Happy Mother’s Day Ingots!
Middle School Families,
The RF custodial staff has carefully removed the contents of each locker and placed those contents into bags for easy pickup. On Wednesday, May 13 from 9 to 2, parents can pickup their student's belongings in front of the middle school entrance (by the river) near the MPR/Middle School Gym. This is for all 6th, 7th, and 8th grade students. HS students will go to the front office section of the building by the Ingot.
Only legal guardians can pickup locker bags unless a signed note from a parent/guardian expresses otherwise. No exceptions can be made.
In an effort to remain contactless, students/families will not be allowed into the building. As each car arrives, a staff member will place the locker bag on a table for pickup.
If you have any questions, please email me at rhorka@rfcsc.k12.in.us
Thank you,
Mr. Horka, RFMS Principal
