John R. Rogers High School

It's always great to run into our Pirate family. Mr. Wayne Wright graduated with the class of 1947 and is a former teacher at Salk Middle School. At 96 years of age, he is still going strong. Mr. Wright's daughter, Wendy Davis, is a teacher at Regal Elementary ❤️

What a week of celebrating Seniors! The Senior Signing Con was a recognition of students choosing post-secondary options - Military, Apprenticeship, Trade School, 2 year college or year universities. We were pleased to welcome Mayor Lisa Brown as our keynote speaker and acknowledge these students as they take the next steps forward.

This was followed by the Evening of Excellence where over 120 seniors were awarded honor cords for their academic successes and multiple scholarships were awarded. Students earned scholarships ranging from $500 to $22,500 each. We are proud of these students who have worked hard throughout their high school career.

Come to the Rogers auditorium for some beautiful music! Our choir will perform on May 26th at 7pm and the band and orchestra will have their concert on June 2nd at 7pm. All are welcome!

Reminder, there is no school on Friday, May 22nd for an unused weather make up day and on Monday, May 25th in honor of Memorial Day. Enjoy the long weekend.

The John R Rogers JROTC Group represented well at the Armed Forces Torchlight Parade last Saturday. Cadets demonstrated the Pirate spirit and represented well. Great job, Cadets!
