Rock Port High School currently works with the University of Missouri-Kansas City, Missouri West-ern State University, Northwest Missouri State and North Central Missouri College. We also have access to dual credit through Missouri State, Missouri Valley and Central Methodist. Many of the classes require a minimum GPA and/or an ACT for our students to enroll. The student then registers to take the class at a lesser expense. The world of high school dual credit is an ever changing and ever growing world. RPHS looks forward to offering a larger list of dual credit classes every year.Submitted by Shauna Farmer, RPHS Guidance Counselor

Cadet Teachers.A much-anticipat-ed activity for many Rock Port students is cadet teaching. Once seniors, stu-dents can sign up to cadet teach with a staff member in the building, which the students - the se-niors and the under-classmen - enjoy at least as much as the teachers they are helping. Here, se-nior Alex Lawrence listens in on second grader Dakota Paris’ secret. Photo by Jade Lemmon.

The band and auxiliary has been working very hard for all their perfor-mances this year and are anticipating Mis-souri Days with excitement. It is Saturday, October 17. Photo by Hannah Miller.
