Happy National Trail Mix Day!

Our wonderful RHMS PTA did it again!

Today, they treated our staff to an assortment of nuts in celebration of National Trail Mix Day, a perfect little pick-me-up to keep us going!

We are so thankful for a PTA that continues to find thoughtful and creative ways to show our staff just how much they are appreciated.

Thank you, RHMS PTA, for always showing our Rams some love!

Congratulations to Rogers-Herr Middle School seventh grader Charlie Torrione on an incredible showing at the 2026 National Junior Championships in West Virginia this summer!

Charlie brought home GOLD in the Boys’ C 3-Meter Springboard competition, earning the title of National Champion! He also earned a silver medal in the 1-Meter Springboard and placed fourth in Platform.

This isn’t Charlie’s first time at the top—he also earned first place in the Boys’ 3-Meter competition at the 2024 National Championships.

Way to represent Rogers-Herr and Durham Public Schools on the national stage, Charlie!
