It wasn't until we visited RCLS that we felt confident in our decision. We quickly learned how beneficial it was to have fewer students in each classroom compared to the public schools we visited. Our daughter ended up needing a bit more help with attention/focus and adjusting to the classroom setting. Her teacher poured her heart and energy into helping her succeed. She has since had 4 wonderful teachers who have helped tremendously! Our son started in the early education program and is now in Kindergarten. We have nothing but wonderful things to say about this school, the staff & the community!

Tip: The signage here is sorely lacking, which is why I couldn't find the paved bike trail, and ended up totally on the wrong side of the park :-( Once I discovered that I was almost hopelessly lost, I wandered aimless in the woods for close to 40 minutes before I found a trail sign that set me back on the right path.
