Did you know the Rush City Education Foundation (RCEF) has given $26,607 to support education in the Rush City School District over the past four years?  $12,000 was used for scholarships to 16 students.  $14,607 was used to fund 14 grants that impacted 1077 students.   At a cost of less than $14 per student (those who were impacted by grant money), this is a great return on investment!  Money raised from the All-School Reunion will be used for scholarships given to Rush City High School seniors and grants awarded to teachers for innovative and creative learning projects.  Attending the reunion is a way to give back to Rush City, and we hope to see you in Rush City for the reunion!  See the list of events below for details.
