Ritenhour Huskies

Early Release Thursdays ONLY – ATHLETIC Study Hall

PLEASE NOTE THIS IS DIFFERENT THAN ACADEMIC SUPPORT 2.0 GPA.

For IN-SEASON ATHLETES ONLY…

Ritenour High School will have Early Release Thursdays on weeks in which school is held Monday-Friday.

This IN-SEASON Athletic Study Hall will take place in the RHS Cafeteria from 1:40pm-2:50pm.

This time after school is mandatory for in-season athletes, and the expectation is that they bring chromebooks to work on academics at every session.

Athletic Study Hall is during EARLY RELEASE ONLY.

Our goal as a athletic department is to “Raise the Bar” when it comes to performance in the classroom and on the field.
