Supported Education
A system that brings support services into regular classes for special education students instead of teaching separate, special classes that isolate students from their peers.
Involvement
PAL (Parent Advisory Link)
PAL's primary focus is on academic issues at RCHS. It is an opportunity for high school parents to have a direct line into their child's classroom.
MUSIC BOOSTERS
Music Boosters organize and host events and raise funds for Reed-Custer's several performing groups. Meetings are held monthly inviting all parents of students involved in the music program to participate.
ATHLETIC BOOSTERS
The goal of the Athletic Boosters each year is to assist with and support the various sporting activities at the high school. A scholarship fund for deserving senior athletes has been established by the organization. |
