August 24, 2016 was a full day of Freshman Orientation. Student leaders volunteered as Demon Delegates to help the new students acclimate to being a part of the Demon Family. Freshman homeroom teachers helped the students learn about RJR traditions and expectations. There were student meetings, performances, scavenger hunts, an ice cream social, parent meetings, school tours, a mock schedule, and get to know you activities. The clubs held a Club Fair outdoors at the end of the day while the parents participated in a PTSA meeting and learned about being a Demon Parent. Thanks to a NC Arts Council Artist in Residency Grant, students created ceramic tiles of their shoe prints. Each one stamped the number of miles Reynolds is from their place of birth. These tiles will be used in an installation outdoors by the Gfeller Stage later this Fall as part of our focus on ACCESS. We hope that the Class of 2020 will "make this place their home".
