One of our core values at RAUC that is especially important as we start the school year is unity. To be in unity, we need to have strong relationships and shared expectations. Check out some photos from the first week of school of how we're building this unity!

Last Friday, our students visited Harvard University as part of the Harvard Project Teach program. During their visit, students heard from Harvard undergraduate students about their experience getting to and attending Harvard and other college options, toured Harvard Yard, had lunch in the freshman-only dining hall, and participated in a class of their choice. We're grateful for this partnership!
