Texting while driving takes your eyes off the road for 5 seconds on the average. At 55 mph, that's like traveling the length of a football field blindfolded.

“Nothing is of greater importance than the conservation of human life.” – Calvin Coolidge

More than half of teens killed in crashes were not wearing seat belts.

Drive as if every child on the street were your own.

Of the 4000 teens who die and the 400,000 who are seriously injured annually – 50% are passengers!

Updates from the RT5 Committee, September 24, 2024

We have completed the memorial – it was finished in time for the first day of school! Thanks to Muse Concrete for their great work and all our community supporters!
Our annual RT5 Golf Tournament is this Saturday, September 28 at Gold Hills. Let us know if you’d like to play or contribute an item for the silent auction. Sunday we will dedicate the memorial at EHS starting at 5:30 p.m. All are welcome!
Phase 2 of our project will be the landscaping in the memorial area, and will include bricks and shrubbery. We encourage you to order a memorial brick in support of the project. We are marketing them to all seniors at EHS this year. We will have order forms at the dedication, which you can mail to us, or they are available on the website. It’s a great way to be part of the project.

We are especially grateful for the role each girl’s family and the school administration has played in this entire process. They have been remarkably supportive of our efforts. We invite all our classmates and friends to share written memories of high school, especially about each of the five. Our plan is to archive friend and family memories and post them on the web page. We have already received some great submissions and look forward to more.It has been a project which has required much patience and perseverance, with lots of challenges and amazing support from throughout our community. We are grateful to those of you who have contributed!
