Roy C. Ketcham High School, more informally Ketcham or RCK, is a public secondary school under jurisdiction of the Wappingers Central School District. Located in Wappingers Falls, New York, United States, the school serves approximately two thousand students in grades nine through twelve residing in the southwest of Dutchess County.
As a result of the considerable population growth in Dutchess County during the 1940s and 1950s, a new senior high school was built and opened to students in the fall of 1962. It was named in honor of Roy C. Ketcham, who had been a prominent member of the town's board of education for a quarter of a century.
The music department occasionally hosts regional events at the school, such as NYSSMA competitions, Area All State Festivals, and All County Jazz Festivals. Roy C. Ketcham's current principal is David Seipp. The assistant principals for the 2016-2017 school year are Megan D'Alessandro, Adam Panzer, David Maffei, and Chante Brooks.
