overall, just bad. I'm a current student there and the school just gets worse. In 5th trade I had a teacher who would break down crying ever minute (she also had major anger issues). This affected us greatly. Half of the teachers there seem to be off. One let a white student say the n word and then the teacher says "it's not being used in a derogatory way so he can say it" like what? That doesn't matter. After all the history us black people have had, no one should be able to say it but us (I'm black). Plus, the students are just as bad. Not once, but TWICE did students have sex in the restrooms. Then a student smothered they're poop on the wall when I was in elementary. Overall the school is bad/mid.

Richmond Christian School has been a great fit for me. It's a small private school where everyone knows each other. I enjoy going to this school and have loved meeting the people here.

I went to RCS for many years, and I loved my time there. As cliché as it sounds, my favorite part was always the people. From the amazing office ladies to the understanding teachers to the close friends, I enjoyed coming to school everyday.

School doesn’t take safety concerns seriously. Doesn’t take bullying or threats seriously. Very behind in curriculum, almost all teachers expect students to know everything about the curriculum. I personally know 3-6 people who have got jumped during school hours. Dress code isn’t clear and needs up...

I believe this school is good, because their priority is to get a decent Christian education. This school allows you to feel comfortable and really gives you a home away from home feel in some ways. I honestly enjoy my school because it’s cozy!

This school shelters students way to much. Only a wrong Christian school. When I went to public highschool I realized I was way behind on math and science. They disregarded so much and teach you way to biased things like the earth is only 5,000 years old and that dinosaurs never existed.. it closed...
