Roy C. Ketcham High School is a 9th-12th grade school located in Wappingers Falls, New York. It is in Dutchess County and is part of the Wappingers Central School District. There are about 2,000 students currently enrolled in RCK.

The RCK mascot is the controversial Indian. The school colors are red and blue. Athletic clubs include a wide range of sports, including some incredible teams that brought the school prestige, such as Boy's Baseball Team (2005 New York State Class AA Champions).

Ketcham as a whole is known for its passionate and supportive students, commonly dubbed the "Ketcham Krazies." The krazies love all their sports teams and cheer from the start of the game until the last buzzer. A few of their well known chants include "The Aussie" and "I Believe." More well-known in the area, however, are Roy C. Ketcham's music and theatre programs, the Masque and Mime, and the numerous choirs, including Chamber Choir, a group of elite performers that had gone to Europe (Eurotour06), singing in the Vatican for the Pope, and the additional local performances, which draw hundreds of people for each performance. In addition to this, RCK has been ranked in the top 1% of high schools in America, a great achievement.

Roy C. Ketcham's current senior president is Jimmy Cao and the vice president is Matt Glienke. Roy C. Ketcham's current principal is Mrs. Sherill Murray-Lazarus, and has been since about 2002.
