More Halloween fun at RRTC!
RRTC had some interesting characters at school today!
RRTC had 37 students and 3 advisors attend SkillsUSA Fall Leadership Conference in Chickasha this week. Several students received their Statesman award. The SkillsUSA Statesman Award is presented to members who demonstrate SkillsUSA knowledge and civic awareness, along with an understanding of the SkillsUSA Framework and how to articulate their personal experience in career and technical education. Fall Leadership Conferences support the SkillsUSA mission by educating and engaging members with SkillsUSA knowledge, activities and breakout sessions that support continued growth in the 17 Essential Elements, and providing students and advisors the opportunity to engage with other members.
RRTC's Biomedical Science Academy students volunteered at The Pathways Coalition's annual 4th grade safety event on October 15, 2025 at the Stephens County Fair Grounds. Our students served as group tour guides and presented information on Halloween safety to over 350 area fourth graders.
RRTC students attended HOSA, Future Health Professionals, Fall Leadership conference in Norman. Students were able to meet fellow HOSA members, decide the next state officer team, attend informative breakout sessions, and learn about new HOSA updates.

Future Scientists at Work! Our Biomedical Science Academy seniors at RRTC are diving into the microscopic world—viewing their own healthy cheek and skin cells under the microscope and comparing them to cancerous cells. This hands-on lab experience brings science to life, helping students explore the real cellular differences between normal and cancerous tissue. The future of biomedical research is in great hands!

RRTC’s Biomedical Science Academy afternoon seniors just broke down hydrogen peroxide (yeah, the bubbly stuff) and figured out how much energy it gives off when it decomposes. Spoiler: it’s a lot — about 98 kJ per mole! They used real lab data + some chemistry magic to calculate the enthalpy change and see just how exothermic this reaction really is.
This week, we had the pleasure of welcoming Dr. Shane Hunt, the new President of Cameron University, along with Kyle Jarman Interim Director from the Cameron-Duncan campus, for a tour of the RRTC campus.
They expressed great interest in learning more about our programs and exploring opportunities for future collaboration. We’re excited about the potential for partnership and look forward to working together to create new pathways for student success!

Big News from RRTC HVAC!
Our students just installed their FIRST A2L refrigerant air conditioner— a huge step toward the future of HVAC technology! A2L systems are more environmentally friendly and are becoming the new industry standard — not all schools have A2L equipment to work on. Proud to say RRTC is ahead of the curve.
