Call the school to find out if you have questions for this school year.

Should be part of the BIO or something you can easily look up.


Where does one look it up?? AP position advertised. So AP for school year 2023-2024 is out or was promoted?


An opening for AP (Assistant Principal)? A new AP started in 2023-2024. Or is the position advertised for an additional AP?


It wouldn't be an additional AP. Last year's AP must be leaving.

Don’t move thinking that living nearby gets your child into immersion- it’s a full countywide lottery.


I thought some seats are reserved for native speakers in the catchment area.

RCF is neither Focus nor Title I, so no reduced class sizes.


It used to be a Focus school. My DD had 12 kids in her class through second grade. This was about 10 years ago


May have lost focus status. Don't think it was ever Title 1.
