On Tuesday May 1, 2007, the RULH Anatomy Class performed community service projects around Front Street in Ripley. They were joined by village employees who helped clean up and mow the park area in front of Co-Hearts Riverhouse. The students worked weeding flower beds, sculpting beds with Ohio River rocks they found on the riverbank, and planting annuals and perennials. Learn and Serve America provided the funds for the transportation for this project. The main goal of Learn and Serve America is to provide funding for integrating service learning into regular classroom curriculum. The RULH High School is a “Model School” for Learn and Serve Ohio.
