Overview Paragraph

Rockaway Collegiate High School (RCHS) provides an enriched college preparatory program. We offer a collaborative educational experience in which talented students are challenged to expand their intellect and develop the habits of inquiry, expression, critical thinking, problem solving, research, and presentation. We ensure this with the development of consistent structures, additional time, and support when needed. Personalization is valued at RCHS where each student is known well by at least one adult through an individualized student success plan which outlines the steps each student needs to take, informed by precise data, to be academically successful. Every student is expected to complete portfolios and pass Regents exams.
