This week we would like to recognize Qing Chen and Jensen Burg. Congratulations!

The RCHS Principles of Fire & Rescue completed their practical skills evaluation for the Indiana Department of Homeland Security Hazardous Materials Awareness and Operations certification on Friday.
These two certifications represent that the students are trained to a competency level that prepares them to respond to and assist in the mitigation process of a hazardous materials emergency. Each student had to identify that a hazardous material situation was present, determine what resources they needed to contain, confine and prevent the incident from getting worse, create a plan of action, implement that action plan, and ultimately mitigate the emergency. We hope that certifications like this will assist students on their career paths after high school!
Happy Veterans Day!
