![On Oct. 30, 24 Eco Club members took a tour of the school’s solar panels on the roof. They were guided and taught by an employee from E Light Electric, the company that maintains the school’s solar panels, and learned about how the panels are maintained and cared for. “I was definitely very excited about being on the roof in general,” Eco Club member Olivia Fang ‘26 said. “[It was exciting to] learn more about solar panels and how they work and how they supply energy to our school.”](https://rockmediaonline.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/RCH_2632-1200x800.jpg)

During snowstorms, drivers have poor visibility, and frozen roads make it difficult to stay in control. “Driving home from Denver [on Friday], the neighborhoods weren’t plowed. By the time we got back they were only plowing highways. We spun out, nearly got stuck and fishtailed a few different times,” Connor Pugh ‘26 said.](https://rockmediaonline.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/Untitled_Artwork-e1732045465987.jpg)

During Senior Night, seniors were given flowers and the opportunity to walk out and take pictures with their family as their future plans and favorite memories were announced over the speakers. The Jags tied 0-0, losing the Continental League Championship. “We were obviously the stronger team but just couldn’t find a way to score, but otherwise our connection and our intensity was really high so I’m proud of that. We just have to find the net,” defense midfielder Clara Geuzaine ‘24 said. “[Losing League] wasn’t the best. It’s better than last year and like, I know our team and we are doing really good. I don’t want to jinx it but like hopefully [we’ll do] good [in playoffs].”](https://rockmediaonline.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Copy-of-DSC_4277-1-1200x868.jpg)

Homecoming?
“I liked them first!”
September 19, 2016
Tis the season for posters full of puns, people walking the halls with flowers plus teddy bears in hand, and Instagrams of cute couples smiling ear to ear. In case you don’t get the point, it’s the time to ask a lucky guy or gal to homecoming! With this year’s homecoming theme of Dr.Seuss, it’s bound that you’ll find your “who in whoville” to dance the night away. Now, the nerves might kick in which, yes, is normal, but when you ask that lucky person, it’ll all be worth it.
Now… How the heck do you ask someone? You can write a big poster, draw on their car, decorate their garage in lights, buy them food (the way to anyones heart), or really anything that’ll put a smile on their face. You can make it PUNny, cute, romantic, cheesy, full of love or jokes, no matter what anyone will appreciate the effort. Need some ideas?…
- Homecoming would be SUPER, I just need a MAN?
- On a scale of one to America, how free are you for homecoming?
- Roses are red, tiaras are stunning, be my princesses at this year’s homecoming?
I took a poll on twitter as well as walking around the school and out of 100 students, 27% voted for Romantic while the other 73% voted for cheesy. Most girls said Romantic while most guys said cheesy; don’t worry ladies some of them said romantic, so we’ll either see some punny posters or chocolates and roses in one’s hands. Goodluck Jags.
Have fun at homecoming!
