GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I graduated from this school and I am so proud that my children will graduate as well from here. The teachers go above and beyond to be sure that your child is taught, and if they are in need of assistance they are right there to help

I like the gym of the school. The floors and walls are falling apart more and more everyday. The school is technologically extremely poor compared to other schools. The teachers and staff is also very hit or miss.

Our school has many diverse classes and clubs. Most people tend to be very welcoming. Our main focuses, in relation to sports, is football and band. But there is always a place for everyone to find where they fit in best.

As a current parent and former student I feel confident in saying Dr. McGriff has changed this school. RCHS is an average school with average experiences and average expectations.
