Vision Statement and Core Values

Vision Statement: Changing Expectations to Change Achievement.

We see quality education as the best path for our children to grow and mature into responsible adults with heart, soul, judgment and wisdom. Each member of our educational family fosters respect, support, and encouragement. We promote increased parent involvement and participation. As a result, we anticipate that parents will join with staff and students to share in the responsibility of their child’s education this will ensure that students meet or exceed New York State performance standards. As each member of our educational community sets high expectations for our students, we must also build each child’s confidence and self-esteem, support individualized thinking, encourage critical thinking, and foster a love of learning. We believe that children learn best when they have this broad base of support and accountability. RCA will, with the parents and community involvement, mold successful leaders for our global society as we strive to empower students, parents, and staff to reach their potential and become active participants in the life-long process of learning.

Core Values: To meet the educational needs of our families, RCA has a very strong set of core values governing all areas of the school. Supported by instructional staff members and parents, our students will be competitive with other educational institutions and meet or exceed NYS educational standards. Our Core Values are:
