The RHS tennis team held its first annual Mick Guess Invitationals, in honor of longtime Rusk tennis coach, Mick Guess. The event brought together Rusk tennis players and members of the community for a day of friendly matches, teamwork, and charitable giving. The event raised a total of $626.00 through generous donations from participants and spectators. All proceeds will go to the American Cancer Society to support breast cancer research.
Some of our SOAR students had a blast last night at the Dallas Stars hockey game! This exciting incentive field trip was a reward for students who consistently show Self-discipline, Ownership, a positive Attitude, and Respect in the classroom. We’re so proud of these outstanding students for leading by example every day.
Parents, please mark your calendars for our upcoming STAAR/EOC testing dates at Rusk High School! We will be a closed campus on all testing dates!
