2025 Senior Spotlight Student, Bobby Huffman is known for being dependable and has an impactful presence at Reidsville High School.
If you’ve spent any time at Reidsville High School, there’s a good chance you’ve met or at least benefited from his work. He is always answering phones in the front office, organizing inventory in the library, or helping a fellow student troubleshoot a tech issue. Throughout his time at RHS, Bobby has been a standout in his CTE courses, especially in Technology and Engineering Design, Adobe Digital Design, Digital Design & Animation, and Video Design. His passion for hands-on learning and problem-solving is clear to every teacher lucky enough to work with him. One of his proudest academic moments came as a SparkNC scholar, where he was among the first students to fully dive into the program and even created a weather app from scratch. His work was featured in a district-wide newsletter, a testament to both his technical talent and his creative curiosity. While still in middle school he was offered an internship in the Paxton Patterson lab where he discovered his ability to lead others and help them find their own confidence with technology. That kind of growth is what his time at RHS has been all about: quiet strength, steady effort, and a willingness to rise to the challenge. Bobby has been more than a student, he’s been a behind-the-scenes MVP being a Media Assistant and Office Assistant. Bobby even repairs staff members’ personal tech usually asking only to keep the tools in return. He works so hard people ask, “Wait… he’s a student?” One teacher was overheard saying, “This school couldn’t run without you, Bobby.” Bobby’s bright, humble personality and strong work ethic have made him a valued part of the RHS family. Bobby plans to attend RCC and hopes to pursue a career in IT or office administration, though some of us are already lobbying RCS to keep him around. Thank you, Bobby Huffman, for everything you've done for Reidsville High School. You may have started out shy and reserved but you’re graduating as a leader, a helper, and a standout human being. We can't wait to see where your talents take you next!
2025 Morehead High School Spotlight Student, Megan Rosas-Wuotto is a “Scholar Athlete”. She has been a member of the MHS Swim Team, Indoor and Outdoor Track and Field Team, Cross-Country Team, and the Soccer team. Megan juggled a year-round sports schedule while also maintaining quite an impressive GPA. However, being active in so many different things wasn’t always what Megan did. At the beginning of her high school career she was a little more reserved. However, her junior year completely changed everything when she decided to go out on a limb and step outside of her comfort zone, which she noted “was like an escape” for her. In addition to sports, Megan branched out and became active in many extracurricular organizations and clubs, including Band, National Honor Society, Key Club, Interact Club, Beta Club which she was the president of her senior year, as well as being a MHS Student Ambassador and the Student Body Vice-President. Outside of school, Megan is also active in her community. One of her proudest moments was doing hurricane relief in 2024 in Western, NC with her church, Osborne Baptist. Megan’s accomplishments include being a Junior Marshall, Highest GPA Scholar Athlete Award, Mighty Panther Award, Team Captain of the Swim team, the Track team, and the MHS Band. After high school Megan is planning to attend The University of North Carolina at Charlotte where she plans to double major in Criminal Justice and Psychology. She has hopes of becoming an FBI Agent and a Detective. Best Wishes, Megan!
2025 Graduate Spotlight Student, Favor Addo states harmony and hardship have shaped her journey at Rockingham County High School. Favor moved to Rockingham County as a sophomore and she worried about fitting into a new community. She says the warmth of her classmates and teachers quickly eased those fears as she found her way in RCHS. Joining the Concert Choir became a turning point. Last year, Favor earned a spot at the All-West Honors Choir singing alongside hundreds of other talented students from across the state. That moment reminded her of how far she has come. High school has presented struggles as well, during her junior year she had a relentless workload and procrastination often left her scrambling to meet deadlines. Through trial and error, Favor learned to break tasks into smaller steps, ask for help, and prioritize self-compassion over perfection. This fall she will take those lessons to the University she chooses to study criminology. Favor has a goal to advocate for justice and equity, inspired by the same community that taught her the power of lifting others up. Much success to Favor!
2025 RECHS Graduation Spotlight Student, Kennidy Kirby transferred to Rockingham Early College her junior year from Northern Guilford High School. She is a senior and a member of the National Honor Society, Varsity softball team, and the women’s golf team. She plans to attend Averett University and will major in biology and continue to play softball.
The small size of RECHS allowed Kennidy to form closer relationships with her teachers and classmates. She says her principal always greets her with a smile and asks how she is doing. She takes college classes and has earned college credits which is a huge opportunity and will help with her for my future endeavors especially as a first generation college student. The RECHS staff is proud of Kennidy.

2025 Rockingham County High School Graduation Spotlight Student, Kaylie Ratcliffe is dual-enrolled at Rockingham County High School and Rockingham Community College. She is working to complete both her high school diploma and Associate in Arts. Kaylie decided to begin incorporating college coursework into her schedule during her freshman year. She witnessed her older sister accomplish the same opportunity. For the past few years, balancing high school and college classes meant spending lots of time both in and out of the classroom working on assignments for college classes. Kaylie's knowledge has been put to the test and there have been many times when she found herself struggling to keep up however, she pushed to keep up with the standards held by her college professors and high school teachers. Kaylie will graduate with both her Associate in Arts and high school diploma. She is grateful that she pushed herself academically to achieve her goals. She also credits the support of her parents and sister. She will proudly and honorably attend the United States Naval Academy to study Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering. We are proud of Kaylie!
