families
RHP parents contribute in a variety of ways to our school's growth and vitality. From answering calls for assistance to supplying creative ideas for projects, our families play a significant role in making RHP what it is – a dynamic, engaged community that relishes watching young minds develop. Throughout the year, we invite families to visit our classrooms, join us at evening and weekend community events, and take on various volunteer roles. Each family's involvement is unique, but the goal is always to build a strong home-school partnership and support our young learners by building a caring school community for all.
