For 20 years, Redding Christian School has been providing exceptional education to students. Our mission forms the foundation for the high quality education we offer. But it is only the beginning. Here at Redding Christian School we believe that effective education involves more than teaching the state standards. We believe in a holistic approach to education with high academic expectations balanced with social, fine arts, and extra-curricular activities. This includes Spanish and French, fine arts, music/band, P.E. and computer keyboarding. This allows us to offer multiple options so that we are able to offer a wide variety of activities to assist children in discovering the gifts they have been given. This gives them a strong sense of their strengths and interests as they grow and mature. We strive to maintain a classroom atmosphere where students feel safe to be themselves and are stimulated to learn and grow to their fullest potential.

    Parent Involvement 

    At RCS, we depend heavily on parental involvement to fill the many needs which arise. Parents are a vital part of school life. It is our school, so we need to make it work. There are many ways for parents and grandparents to become involved. We do expect every family to volunteer in at least one area. Contact Mrs. Piper for how you can become involved in school life.
