Well, the sun came out and dried up all the wintry yuck.
And when the sun comes out, it’s always been a rite of passage for RFHers to get outside. No, we’re not talking about cutting class. We’re just saying that when the sun calls after a stretch of yuck, RFH students have always answered with at least a trip to the front, side, or back of the high school — or Piping Rock Park … or the old Campus Luncheonette.

A reprise originally posted on, no fooling, April 1, 2021, because on a dreary day, sometimes an RFHer just has to get up and dance. Cheers to the leader, the iconic George Giffin …
“OK, pick your dance partners,” RFH’s iconic George Giffin said at a 70s ballroom dance class.
The cool guys scurried to get the most popular girls as the tune countdown ticked away. I was the last girl left. Left footed, Lainey. Yep. Giff chuckled a little, looked at the two boys left as they backed into the wall like frightened wallflower turtles.
A reprise to warm hearts as the sun comes out and spring is on the horizon …
Spring is coming, folks. The weather is warming up. Sort of. People are shedding coats for sweaters and getting out and about a little more each day.
The sun has been peering brightly, albeit with a sting in the air. Call it classic spring fever. Thoughts of sunny, warm, spring-is-almost-in-the-air antics are racing through minds, especially those of high schoolers.
With the first hint of spring in the air today, you could say that these RFH guys caught the spring bug — and soaked it and its sunny vibe right up!
A slam dunk of a reprise to honor the RFH Boys Basketball season … Go Bulldogs!
Yes, it’s basketball season. And there’s some championship kind of playing going on with the RFH Boys Basketball team, as usual.
And while some things never change, including family names still involved in the sport at RFH, there are also many changes — like uniforms and, of course, the audience.
These courts are made for basketball — and jokesters. Maybe not. But, a couple of Rumson’s Forrestdale guys somehow stole center court, or stage, at a basketball game in the 1970s.
Cheers to the great ’80s! Yes, there’s nothing much better than a gaggle of RFH girlfriends and a little pre-party, or after-party, TGIF festivity.
There’s nothing more groovy than six cool RFH girls chillin’ on a couch in the 70s.
To go along with the second snowfall and snow day by default for R-FH area schools on MLK Day … A snowy reprise and musing about snow days at RFH …
Well, they’re calling it a snow day. It seems like these days it doesn’t take much of the fluffy white stuff to blow the snow day whistle — broadcast it on social media is more like it nowadays.
Back in the day, some RFH students preferred to literally chill outside the Senior Commons rather than inside.
To them, those cool dudes, it was the perfect setting for a little pow-wow. Maybe the discussion was heated, though, right? Looks like it could have been. It is the season of reorganizations, after all. And with that dusting of snow, what better time than to chill and get that cool dudes’ hierarchy settled. Ahem …
A reprise from December of 2023, just because as a new year comes, remembering lifelong friendships and continuing to celebrate them, even when untimely loss hits, is true auld lang syne … Cheers!
Auld Lang Syne. The lyrics of the song are all about friendship — forever friends raising a glass and toasting to the good times, adventures and misadventures they’ve shared.
New Year cheers to good friends!
These RFH guys … If there’s something to celebrate, they’re commandeering the toast — and peppering it with a little mayhem. Or a lot.
