RCPS News: Deadline extended for filling high school principal position left vacant by Puryear’s resignation
Rappahannock County Public School newsletter from Superintendent Robert Chappell:
Deadline Extended for Filling RCHS Principal Position:
Upon receiving the resignation of RCHS Principal Robyn Puryear on June 10, we immediately posted the position with a June 25 application deadline. Although over ten applications have been received so far, the deadline has been extended to provide adequate time for the selection process. After getting input June 24 on qualities the public would like to see in the new principal, Assistant Superintendent Dr. Becky Greer will meet with a faculty team to get further input and start the selection process. The School Board is expected to appoint the new principal on or about July 8.

2008 Football Team Holds June Practices:
Playing an independent football schedule enables the RCHS football program to practice in the off-season. Head Football Coach Bob Czekaj and his staff are holding preliminary football team drills in June.
Although the winter season coaches will not be appointed until later this summer or early fall, Bob Czekaj - the 2007 Head Basketball Coach (boys) – is taking 18 prospective players to the Basketball Camp at Juniata College in PA June 27-29.
