Student Goals
Followers of Jesus - An RSW student has an active relationship with Jesus Christ, is led by the Holy Spirit, and is anchored in His Word. Their life is a visible display of the goodness of God. (Eph 2:7)
Effective Readers and Communicators - An RSW student is able to comprehend content and clearly present information in written, verbal and creative, non-verbal forms. They have the mind of Christ and display the brilliance of the kindgom.
World Changers and Leaders - An RSW student understands they have been given a measure of influence. They steward this responsibility with highest regard. They use self-control to become successful, life-long, disciplined learners and leaders. They freely use their spiritual gifts at home, school, in their community, and abroad to reveal the Father to the world around them.
Parental Responsibilities
Disciplining Children - Scripture clearly communicates that parents are responsible to teach and train their children in the way they should go in order to fulfill their God-given assignments in the earth (Prov. 22:6; Deut. 6:4–9). We seek to partner with parents in providing a Christian learning environment to reinforce biblical truths and develop the whole student: mind, body, and spirit.
Curriculum and Supplies - A full curriculum list will be provided by our director. Additionally, classroom and school supply lists will be distributed by teachers. Both will be sent with ample time to shop, order, and receive all supplies and curriculum before the school year begins. It is the responsibility of the parent to obtain all supplies and curriculum accurately. Failure to partner in your student’s education and provide necessary curriculum and supplies could result in dismissal from RSW.
Weekly Syllabus - A syllabus is sent home weekly with the students detailing what work is to be completed on Fridays and Mondays. Parents are considered partners in the education process and are responsible to teach and oversee the assigned work at home. The parent must sign and return the syllabus weekly, indicating the student comprehended and completed all the assigned work. This is our only way to measure accountability in order to meet state standards in attendance and compliance with our category four status as a “church-related school.” Failure to partner in your student’s education and return the syllabus could result in dismissal from RSW.
Night of Worship Participation - At the end of each semester, the students will put on a night of worship for family and friends to attend. This showcase allows students to present what they have been working toward in their elective classes, restricted nations classes, or even in the academic classroom. Participation is required and also earns the student a grade in designated classes according to what is being presented.
For each grade and subject, we choose curriculum based on state requirements and our previous experience. We have used many different textbooks over the years and continue to reevaluate each year to ensure we are making the best choice for your student's comprehension and success! Full curriculum lists will be provided during your tour.
Daily Schedule
We are a university model school, meaning that our schedule looks different each day! We incorporate a variety of electives, extra curricular classes, and creative worship based activities into every on-campus day. Students will participate in primary academic classes in the morning, while shifting gears to more elective classes and the arts in the afternoon. We believe every minute they are on campus shoud be filled with purpose!
