Raleigh Charter Curriculum
Raleigh Charter High School teaches students in an active, social, and creative model of learning that involves inquiry,
discovery, and integrating disciplines. The school offers courses at many ability levels: Standard, Advanced, Enriched
Advanced, Academically Gifted, and Advanced Placement. The curriculum at Raleigh Charter High School is based on the
North Carolina Standard Course of Study, and we offer students many opportunities for increased pace, in-depth study, and enrichment.

The majority of our courses are Advanced, Enriched Advanced, Academically Gifted, and Advanced Placement. Students who
have solid study habits will find this level of curriculum to be appropriate. Since we assign homework every evening
(30 minutes per night in most courses and 30-60 minutes per night in Advanced Placement courses), students who possess
the discipline to complete homework every evening and to arrive prepared for each class the following day will do well at RCHS.
Ninth-grade applicants must be ready to take Algebra I or a higher mathematics course, Advanced Biology,
and Advanced English. Applicants for other grades must meet the graduation requirements for the State of North Carolina and for
Raleigh Charter High School.
A minimum of two years of one foreign language is recommended and required for
admission to a university in the UNC system.
Languages
Our goal is to develop students' awareness of the many environments in which they live, from the local
to the global. We offer Spanish, French, German, and Latin from the introductory levels (first-year) to Advanced Placement.
Electives
RCHS offers electives and special programs in chorus, string ensemble, concert band, visual arts and
theater. Honors Women's Ensemble, Honors Mixed Chorus, and General Chorus are available.
Auditions are required for the honors choral groups. Students may also elect to take a second
language, a second math, or history for their elective.
