The class of 2026 has been fed pancakes, had a chance to play in the bouncy house, and had a run through of graduation for tomorrow. The parents have decorated awesomely for the party (no pictures allowed!). Now all that's left is pomp & circumstance and the handing out of those diplomas.




Mr. Frutiger is an icon and will be this year's faculty graduation speaker

We celebrated our students and some incredible partnerships at our end-of-semester Internship Celebration!
The Century Internship Program was created to connect classroom learning with real-world, career-connected opportunities that help prepare students for their future career paths. Watching our students grow through these experiences has been incredibly rewarding.
Of course, none of this would be possible without our outstanding business partners. Creating meaningful experiences takes a great deal of time, coordination, and commitment, and we are truly grateful for your support of our students.
A special thank you to Tiffany Strande – Limb Lab; Dr. Hector Cajigas & Dr. Erin DeMartino – Mayo Clinic; Carrie Forsyth – Northern Valley Animal Clinic; Courtney Hilmanowski – Active PT; and Martha Riad – Lincoln K-8 Schools for partnering with us this semester. Your willingness to mentor, guide, and invest in our students is deeply appreciated.

The Mayo, John Marshall, and Century High School varsity robotics team, Inconceivable Robotics, had a successful trip to the MSHSL State Tournament last weekend. This incredible achievement caps off a phenomenal season for the team, who not only qualified for the World Championship but also took home the prestigious Dunwoody Award for design innovation. Congratulations to all the students and mentors on a great season of innovation and hard work

Congratulations to our Fastpitch Softball team in their defeat over Lakeville South to advance to the section quarterfinals. They play Farmington Tuesday in Austin at 4 p.m.

As seniors gear up for graduation, they take part in a longstanding RPS tradition, walking through the halls that made them who they are today. This tradition of a senior walk allows students to close a chapter of their lives while also thanking teachers and staff who helped them along the way. It also inspires our other students to see what they are working towards throughout their education and helps them learn to celebrate and uplift others.
Congratulations, Seniors! We can't wait to watch you walk across the stage!

Our Science Bound Scholars mentorship group recently gathered at Mayo Clinic for an engaging panel discussion with physicians, giving students the opportunity to ask thoughtful questions about college, career pathways, and the realities of working in medicine. Students asked about motivation, skill-building, internships, and the challenges physicians face today. The panelists shared powerful insights—emphasizing continuous learning, staying people-centered in your work, finding meaning in what you do, building strong habits, and focusing on growth beyond just building a résumé. A huge thank you to Dr. Sumera Ahmad, Dr. Alexander Niven, Dr. Ashokakumar Patel, Dr. Erin DeMartino, and Dr. Hector Cajigas for investing their time and wisdom into our students. We are grateful for your partnership and impact!
