Behind the Flag

Few symbols bring about a sense of national pride like the display of flags.

In an effort to highlight and celebrate the diversity of the students and staff, every nationality that is represented at Rock Hill High School (RHHS) is recognized through the display of their national flag.

RHHS Senior, Grant Johnson, loves “the flags surrounding the commons areas upstairs. Each student nationality is represented as a flag that reminds students where they came from and how diverse our school body is. It is also really cool that Hill Top News highlights a student each week in their segment Faces Behind the Flags so students can see the face that that flag represents.”

There are currently 48 flags representing the diversity that is RHHS! Rock Hill Principal, Dustin Toth, is “proud of the sense of inclusion and family that the flags have come to represent. When they see the respect and appreciation for each heritage that makes up the Rock Hill Family so visibly on display, students and staff lean more easily into a culture of acceptance that is crucial to being the Rock Hill Family!”
