Awesome school I graduated from here in 1982 and love the building the air conditioning it has as well as the Planetarium which is now room 303 at RBHS. I am glad to be an RBHS Bruin. I still love this school today and do my best to support it and the athletics there as well as attending public star shows in the RBHS planetarium.
