Governor John R. Rogers High School has just completed a $26M remodel/addition. This state-of-the-art high school is situated on a 43-acre site with a majestic view of Mount Rainier. RHS has graduated over 13,000 students in thirty years. The college campus atmosphere and strong programs in Academics, Athletics, Activities and the Arts are a source of pride in the Rogers community.

RHS is proud to continue a nearly decade-long partnership with The Boeing Company. Through the years, many students have participated in the Engineering and Manufacturing Tech Prep Programs. Several teachers have worked with student interns as Tech Prep class advisors. Additionally, teams of staff members have completed special projects as Educator Interns. The benefits of this partnership have penetrated throughout the curriculum.
