The last couple of months of school are so busy for everyone, but especially seniors.  After running an ad for people to nominate a deserving RFHS senior and receiving some great nominees, Mr D (along with Miss A) was selected as one of the winners.  He is a very kind and talented young man.  Lots of smiles and laughs! We had a great photo shoot.  Enjoy not only his pictures but a bit of Q and A.
