HRCCS is as good as it gets! This small public charter school feels like a private school in that every student gets individualized attention...without the price of private school tuition! There is a tiny nod to homeschooling as Fridays are independent study days with optional enrichment classes on campus. The faculty and staff are amazing (all of their kids attend HRCCS) and the setting is delightful. HRCCS offers the school experience every parent wants for their child but is so hard to come by. Get on the waiting list NOW!

This is the Best little school around. Some of the best qualities include the small class size, the caring teachers/ staff, and the parent involvement.
