RFH science teachers of the 1970s Photo/RFH Yearbook
A reprise from 2022, because it’s Teacher Appreciation Week and not enough people read it the first time …
Science! It was truly poetry in motion at RFH, just like the 1980s song by Thomas Dolby. And, no, no teacher blinded anyone with science at RFH, more like made the students see the subject — and more clearly.
That’s just what these RFH boys of the 1970s did, and with frequency. There was no major organization or uniforms involved in their free time ball games. It was just a few RFH guys, a ball, some mitts, bats, topsiders and Adidas instead of cleats, some groovin’ 70s clothes and a lot of fun.

In thinking about the game these days — baseball game, that is — it’s only fitting that we take a gander back at little league in Fair Haven back in the late 60s.
Two of these kids are not like the others. But, who would know when a Fair Haven neighborhood in the 1960s was pretty much a family affair anyway, right?

Look … up in the sky … It’s a bird. It’s a flying saucer. It’s a shot put. It’s a discus. And it’s RFH’s Tom Campbell giving it a good airborne throw on the RFH field of RFH Boys Track & Field of the late 1970s.

This baseball season at RFH promises to be a home run hit, as bases are loaded with team cheer all about playing the field again. It’s spring and high school baseball season is officially in swing.
It’s a date! The RFH Tower Players never really had to make a date to play. But they have always needed to make a date for a production — like the fall show or spring musical.
