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.

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!

In my opinion, the quality of the programs is dependant on teacher. Some are quite good and dedicated to the students.

RCS is a great place to learn. The school is now PreK through grade 8 (not K-9). There are two sections of each grade. Parent/school communication is superb! Go to the Holland Festival for a good taste of the level of parent involvement.
