R.J. Reynolds is proud to be one of 21 "magnet" schools in the WS/FCS system, and the premier high school for students interested in focusing on the Arts.
Students wishing to gain admission to Reynolds via the Arts Magnet program must apply during the applications window, which runs from December 15, 2019 to January 10, 2020. If there are more applications than openings, a lottery will be held in January.
For more information on the Magnet Schools application process, see this web page.
Senior Parents: There is not much space remaining for senior/baby ads for the 2020 Black and Gold. While we can purchase additional pages for these, we need to let our publisher know about any additional page purchases prior to December 20. If you would like to purchase one for your senior, please contact the yearbook staff at rjryearbook@gmail.com.
