When life gives you something that makes you feel afraid that’s when life gives you a chance to be BRAVE.
Welcome to Reedsport Community Charter School!
Located along the south central Oregon coast, RCCS serves students in grades seven through twelve with a strong focus on community connections, personalized education, and student opportunity.
About RCCS
Located in a rural area along the south central Oregon coast, we serve over 250 students in grades seven through twelve. In February of 2010 we became a public charter school with an emphasis on community connections, personalized education, and state-of-the-art technology and teaching.
Our beautifully remodeled school building is a testimony to the dedication of our community to making its schools the very best they can be. A full 100% of our core classes are taught by highly qualified teachers, while our charter status allows community members to teach electives as registered teachers in their areas of expertise.
Reedsport Community Charter School’s dedicated and professional staff members continue to be very involved with our students, teaching multiple subjects as well as coaching and advising co-curricular activities.
“We are an inclusive community, with heart, empowering all who enter our doors.”
