Today we’re celebrating the success of one of our own. Roanoke Rapids Early College High School History instructor Ryan Stowinsky is in the process of releasing another book in a few weeks. The New Jersey native came to RRGSD four years ago. His latest book is called, Abandoned or Forgotten: Overlooked corners of South Jersey. We wish him continued success on his books and are proud of the work he is doing in and out of the classroom. #CelebrateSuccess #KidsAreOurCustomers

Sports Update: Due to an NCHSAA rule dealing with football players missing 5 or more consecutive school days of practice and needing 3 practices to be able to play in a game, we will not be playing Vance County in football (JV or Varsity) this week. Vance County fits into this rule.
We will host Vance County for a Varsity Football game on Monday 9/24 at 7pm. The JV game is indefinitely postponed at this time.
Thanks for your support. Go Jackets!
