A special day for Roaring Fork High School each spring is Ram’s Day. This year, the graduating seniors did community service projects in the morning followed by lunch and activities at Triangle Park. Crews could be found at North Face Park doing weed mitigation, at the fire station cleaning trucks, working at the community gardens by The Orchard, engaging with second and third graders at Crystal River Elementary School and doing other random acts of kindness. After lunch, the whole school came together to pose for the annual all-school photo and then to the practice field to compete in games planned and run by Student Council. A little rain did not put a damper on this wonderful rite of spring and celebration of the end of the school year.
Roaring Fork High School’s graduation ceremony is this Saturday, May 27, from 10am to noon. Bridges High School celebrates on Friday, May 26, from 5 to 7pm. And Colorado Rocky Mountain School grads walk on June 3.
