FAQs
Does RCS follow a Common Core Curriculum?
At Rochester Christian School, we don't shy away from National Standards, but we aren't handcuffed by them either. So when it comes to Common Core, we take the best and leave the rest. That means a big "yes" to higher standards, challenging curriculum, and deeper learning. What we don't believe in is a one-size-fits-all approach, limiting teacher creativity, or an over-reliance on standardized testing.
Our teachers have the flexibility and responsibility to do what's best for their students. The result is a dynamic, Christ-centered education that equips students to develop their God-given abilities and use them to their fullest potential for His glory.
