You're in the right place.
Your student is more than just a number here. With smaller classes than most traditional public schools, we provide a personalized experience.

We are proud to be a tuition-free, accredited charter school for grades 7 through 12.
Community matters. We have an amazing team of supportive teachers, families, and students working together to achieve great things. High expectations of our students, a supportive school team, and a collaborative partnership with our families empower students to achieve more than they ever imagined!
Great school. Teacher to student ratio is great and it really prepared me for college! The independent study program is great for teaching time management and independence.
RVCS became my safe haven after moving around schools. The teachers and staff are caring and passionate about what they teach, the schoolwork is challenging but do-able, and the students are exceptionally nice.
This school will help you avoid bullying and to learn. Their teachers are very motivated to help you. And they manage to mix some fun with learning.

Study School
Our curriculum prepares students for college and inspires them to become self-motivated, competent, lifelong learners. All RVCS core high school classes have been designed as college preparatory courses and have been approved by the University of California to meet its A to G requirements.
RVCS students can choose on-campus learning or independent study through our Dual Track Program. The Hybrid Track allows for two days on-campus and the remainder of the week in independent study. The Independent Study Track is 100% online study from home.
Our students can graduate with a high school diploma plus an associate degree. The early college program allows students to dive deeper into what is interesting to them and follow their passions as they get a taste of the rigors of academics at community college.
We would be happy to show you the exciting things happening on campus, share a brochure, and answer all your questions about RVCS. Enrollment is open throughout the year, and we are currently accepting new students for the 2022-2023 school year.
