RCS COMMUNITY

Riverside Christian Schools has a proud history of educating young people for time and eternity since 1958. I am honored to become part of this great tradition as your new superintendent. My goal is to build upon the solid foundation laid by so many devoted and gifted followers of Christ over the years.
 
The strength of RCS is its people, From the facilities staff to the principals, from the preschool through the high school, it is the people that make this a loving, supportive, and productive place to grow. The most important thing anyone can learn here is how to develop and strengthen a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. That involves loving God, and loving your neighbor as yourself (Luke 10:27). We integrate this Christian focus into every aspect of our schools. Note that we accept Christians and non-Christians, and we love them all the same way.
 
In addition to spiritual growth, we focus on the intellectual, creative, physical, and social growth of our students. We view each student as an individual with his or her own special talents and callings from God. That belief inspires our approach to fostering individuality, while encouraging community values at the same time. The result is an innovative, transformative, and creative learning environment. We seek more than a transfer of knowledge, we seek to build understanding, wisdom, and application. The vvorld doesn't need more memorizers, we need forward thinking learners, who can respond to an increasingly complex and competitive global society.
 
The nature, character, and works of God are excellent, so we believe we should reflect excellence in all we do. I am confident that we can move from "Good to Great" as a school system, and I am marshalling all our assets toward that end. Thank YOU for joining us on this journey of growth and significance for every student. I challenge each of you to ask the Lord how you may contribute to this bold endeavor. Wonderful things are already happening, but I firmly believe the best is yet to come!
 
 
 
Respectfully yours,
