What parents can expect from RJCS
- RJCS provides an environment where students can receive a Christian education and are encouraged to receive Jesus as Lord and learn more about Him, in addition to their academic studies. Besides giving a clear plan for teaching the scriptures, our Christian based curriculum gives the teacher plans for teaching scripturally sound principles throughout the day. In addition, students are given personal opportunities to minister to other people. They will also be able to participate in missions projects as the program is developed at the school.
- Academic excellence is of paramount importance at RJCS. For most of our elementary and middle school subject areas, we use an excellent Christian-based curriculum, the ‘A Beka Book’ series, to ensure high quality instructional materials for our students. It is based on sound scholarship, common sense and the Word of God. For middle school writing and grammar, we use another Christian based curriculum called BJU Press. These curricula have been selected for their quality by our staff to ensure children will be engaged in the learning process.
We offer age-appropriate art and music classes to students. In addition, students perform during school events such as our convalescent outreach, as well as our Graduation ceremony.
- The RJCS school calendar includes a wide variety of cultural and educational outings. We schedule field trips to various sites, including museums, theaters and other educational attractions. One major class trip is generally scheduled at the close of the school year.
