I love this school have been there practically my whole life still there but graduating this year from 8th grade

Like many schools, RCS does not offer a strong gifted program : It is a pull-out class once a week where they do word puzzles. The fifth and sixth grade teachers received complaints about their preferential treatment of the girls.

The teacher to student ratio is excellent. You will not find low numbers in the public school system. There are a number of extra activities for students like track, football, baseball, basketball, cheerleading, singing/acting, and music. Parents are very involved in the school. There was a huge turnout to open house night and everyone of them cares about their child and his/her education. Parents are a key part in the childs education at this school, especially since they pay for the tuition. The children are very well mannered and respectful. There is also extra work for students who are advanced as well as on-site special ed resources. I also like that the kids are not taught to the stupid state test! They are getting a well rounded quality education!

Academic programs at RCS are acceptable, probably better than local public schools, but not as challenging as I was expecting from a private school. Most of the teachers are excellent, but are not given the tools needed to challenge the students to do their best. There tends to be a heavy focus on working with kids with disabilities, but not pushing the kids academically who excel. There is an adequate availability of extracurricular activites. Parents are always welcome on-campus and they tend to be willing to be involved, which is great considering that most of the parents have to work to afford the tuition.
