RO-HAWK POSTERS 2017 - 2019

Here are the posters designed by Mike Scott and Gloria Campbell Gallagher that we have had framed and presented to the administration and staff of Randolph High School.  These posters are meant to educate the present students about the birth of the Ro-Hawk; the original words to the school song; the person Randolph AFB was named after; and a little bit of humor and nostalgia.  Enjoy

AUCTION SALE OF THE OLD SCHOOL BUILDING FURNITURE/FIXTURES/EQUIPMENT - June 1, 2019

May 18, 2019

Ro-Hawks! This is the first email coming to you regarding the demolition of the last of the old buildings and the removal and re-placement of the Ro-Hawk Mosaic which was the Class of 1964's Gift to the School.  The auction is explained below - unfortunately, you must be present to purchase items AND the auction is OPEN TO THE PUBLIC.  Good luck! 

(By the way and as a form of bringing it full circle, Derick Bird, the son Gary Bird - Class of '64, is on the demolition team).

Also we are hoping to save some of the bricks from the old building and have them for sale for keeping for yourself OR having them engraved with your name and class and repurposing them at the school in a walkway or patio.  This hasn't been firmed up as of today.

Regarding the demolition of our high school building. The original cafeteria will remain and be remodeled and repurposed into to a technical center and conference room. Our original gym and the original administration offices remain, however there is a second new gym and cafeteria which look great. Superintendent Johnson, RFISD, has replaced or upgraded almost all the buildings for the present and future students. Come see the campus if you haven’t seen it already to see the many improvements. 

Everything will also be posted in my BLOG which you can access here:

The iconic Ro-Hawk Mosaic that has been hanging in the front hall of the original high school building since 1964 will be moved to the new high school building sometime after June 10, 2019, which is the proposed date for demolition of the last of the old school buildings.
