WE BECOME ONE AT REDONDO UNION:
No matter where our RBUSD students begin their educational journeys, their paths always lead to
Redondo Union High School. Let’s showcase our unity and support our current and future Sea Hawks, by helping upgrade the outdated and malfunctioning RUHS digital marquee on N. PCH. Our goal is to raise $50,000, and if every RBUSD family could donate at least $6 per enrolled student, we could
easily reach this goal. To help upgrade the RUHS marquee, Text RUHSMAR to 44-321 Website: https://rbef.org/ruhsmar

Congratulations to our top scoring students on the American Mathematics Competitions, the AMC 12 & AMC 10 contests:
On the AMC 12, our school winner was Nick Cutsail, with Akash Pulinthanathu & Ethan Poladian tied for second. Ben Ringel was 4th, and Malina Au was 5th.
On the AMC 10, our school winner was Theo Danial, with Alexandria Lopresto in second. Garrett Moser was 3rd, Connor Robertson was 4th, and Isabella Langa was 5th.
Nick Cutsail and Theo Danial earned scores high enough to garner them an invitation to participate in the very prestigious American Invitational Mathematics Examination. Good luck!
