Raleigh Charter High School is a free, independent public school chartered by the State Board of Education of North Carolina. At RCHS we believe that a college-preparatory education requires several key elements:
Highly motivated students and actively involved parents
Well-educated faculty who are kind, caring, strong teachers
An advanced curriculum that allows placement of students in the course-level that is appropriate for their learning needs
 
RCHS named the 2008 Outstanding Volunteer Group
Awards
On May 1, Raleigh Charter High School was honored by the City of Raleigh's Parks and Recreation Department as the 2008 Outstanding Volunteer Group. The prestigious Fred Fletcher Outstanding Volunteer Awards were videographed and can be seen on the RTN cable channel in the near future. Each year our students are involved in 27 different citizenship service activities. The 45 students who work for Raleigh Parks install walkways and steps, build fences, plant flowers and trees, among many other projects to enhance the aesthetics, functionality, and usability of park facilities. Since 2005, we have been contributing at about 12 different sites. Teachers Mike Rios, John Kleinhenz, and Lindsey Scherer work with our students under the guidance of Carolyn Jackson. We also acknowledge the cooperative and friendly spirit of the Parks and Recreation staff, particularly Cindy Trumbower.
