Welcome to Rosehill Christian High School. As the principal, it is my desire that together we cultivate a community in which spiritual growth and academic learning are the focus. We are a covenant school with a mission of excellence to challenge students to reach their highest potential and to make a difference in their community thorough service to others. Our focus is one of "rigor, relevance and relationships." With a challenging college prep curriculum, a Biblical focus, and student community service, our students are receiving an education that prepares them for college and is relevant to equip them to influence their culture. We seek to teach our students the importance of the "Knowing Christ and Making HIM Known."
Beginning in the eighth grade, students may begin receiving college preparatory courses. Our dual-credit courses offer junior and senior students the ability to take courses for college credit right here on campus, taught by RCS teachers and credited through Lone Star College.
Our staff is focused this year on the integration of technology into teaching and learning. With the addition of Apple computers for each teacher, developing our technology infrastructure, and continued staff development, we are working towards the implementation of Apple laptops for high school students as well as 8th grade students taking high school courses. Our students will need to purchase a specified Apple laptop for the 2009-2010 school year. We are also busy developing our online school for initial implementation in the 2009-2010 school year.
Our students are encouraged to become involved in both the visual and performing arts. Our new Performing Arts and Art classrooms provide the place for students to use their talents in this area.
A diverse athletic program is available with competition in basketball, 6-man football, girls soccer, softball, baseball and others. The varsity football team, as well as the girls and boys basketball participated in post district play during the 07-08 school year.
Our weekly Chapel time encourages student leadership along with a time of praise and worship for students.
All of our faculty are committed to providing a quality CHRISTIAN education to the students we serve. Come and check us out.
In HIS Service,
Marshall Priest
