School Board Goals

The board has set goals as follows:

"Brain research indicates there is a window of opportunity, birth through nine, during which students must acquire a mastery of literacy capabilities essential for reading; thus promoting student success in school, society, and the workplace. We, therefore, pledge intense determination to ensure that all students read before age ten. Further we pledge that:

• RCS students will experience appropriate, research based instruction.
• Each student's potential, abilities, and interests will be enhanced by their learning experiences.
• All Students will graduate understanding the value of education, learning, and personal responsibility.
• Students will be prepared to be successful in college or the workforce.
• The curriculum will be aligned to Indiana academic standards.
• All students will experience ongoing appropriate literacy instruction through their school careers."
