A variety of organizations such as Forensics, DECA, and Drama help students choose continuing education and career choices. Sports activities allow students to excel at their physical talents and achieve realistic goals. The music department is known for its excellent ability to bring out the best in each talented student. Rice Lake High School students ranked in the top 10% nationwide of ACT scores.
