Just a little Rumson entertainment thing to know: Forrestdale School Drama Club kids are getting set for a curtain up on Seussical Jr., the youngsters’ version of Seussical the Musical.
Of course, the show is all about the works of famed children’s book author, Dr. Seuss. And the cast is dressed, going into final dress rehearsal and ready to open on Thursday night.
They are the champions! In case you didn’t hear or see the hoopla —as in beeping, siren-blaring, light-flashing from a fire company- and police-escorted parade — the RFH Girls Indoor Track & Field team won the 2024-25 NJSIAA Group 2 state championship.
Rumson-Fair Haven Regional High School (RFH) has earned the College Board AP® Computer Science Female Diversity Award for achieving high female representation in AP Computer Science A (CSA).
Sixteen Rumson-Fair Haven (RFH) student-athletes made their college choices official by signing Letters of Intent committing to their academic and athletic careers at colleges and universities across the country.
It’s that time. Time for Rumson-Fair Haven Regional High School’s homecoming game and festivities. It’s also prime time for raising funds to turn back time to the days when the signature RFH Tower clock worked.
That time, for all that tradition, albeit altered a lot over the years, is tonight.
After a week of what has been dubbed “spirit days” and “battle of the classes,” there was a homecoming festival on Thursday at the Dawg House replete with rides, dunk tank, treats and the battle of the classes events with prizes. This newer tradition started in 2012, doing away with the usual homecoming dance at RFH and earlier tossing aside the Thanksgiving Day game against Red Bank Catholic tradition before dinner on Turkey Day.
Staff, in 2012, said no one was showing for the dance and it was too cold and inconvenient to have the homecoming game on Thanksgiving. Though, decades ago, Borden Stadium or RBC was packed with alum and present students at these games. The dance? It was always a draw for RFH alum coming home from college for the first time and present seniors.
But we digress … The homecoming culmination tonight is the game and the final halftime homecoming court festivities. There’s also that RFH Tower clock fundraiser.
Here’s how it will play out …
Each class decorated its own homecoming float with a theme of choice. The floats will be paraded, chauffeuring the homecoming court, at tonight’s homecoming game, which is set for a 7 p.m. start against Donovan Catholic High School. Floats will be voted on by audience members for best design.
And in the middle of it all, the RFH PTO will be raising funds to have that RFH Tower clock, on which time has stopped for decades, wind up and tell time once again.
Tonight, people can pose with the classic DeLorean Time Machine from 5 to 9 p.m. in the RFH Football Lot.

There is a season … and this fall was one for the reuniting of two Rumson-Fair Haven Regional High School (RFH) Tower Player alumni for theatrical arts’ sake.
