Congratulations to the RCS Middle School Student-Athletes of the Month for September!
This initiative recognizes student-athletes who exemplify excellence not only in athletics, but also in the classroom and through their character and leadership. Each month, schools have the opportunity to nominate a student-athlete who serves as a positive representative of their team, school, and Rutherford County Schools.
Selected student-athletes will be featured on the Rutherford County Schools - Athletics webpage under their middle school sport, providing an opportunity to celebrate their accomplishments with our community.
We look forward to highlighting the outstanding accomplishments of our student-athletes throughout the school year. Thank you for helping us celebrate the students who make a positive impact both on and off the field.
