CONGRATULATIONS to our Rome High School AP STEM teachers! RHS is once again being awarded for its outstanding participation in AP STEM courses.
For this to happen, RHS must have a strong number of students who each take 4+ AP STEM courses in a school year. That means half their schedule for the school year is spent in these very rigorous courses.
Thank you to Mr. Stafford, Ms. McKenzie, Ms. Goldin, Mr. Santa Maria, Ms. Ehrler, and Ms. Branson for all your hard work encouraging students to participate in this program. Your hard work makes a difference. We are so happy to have you in the Wolfpack!
