1. Tuition and Registration Fees: each student pays a set fee which pays for curriculum, certain classroom supplies, and payroll.  While tuition and fees are a major portion of the budgeted income it does not cover all our expenses.

2. Partnerships with churches and other organizations: our partnership with Ridgewood Church is immeasurable.  Without this partnership tuition and registration fees would more than double.  We are constantly seeking ways in which we can partner with other churches and organizations.  If you have ideas or suggestions please feel free to contact us.

3. Fund raisers: we have two major fund raisers (bike-a-thon & live auction) and two or three smaller fund raisers each year (spirit shirt, t-shirt design competition & Braided Bread sale).  Our goal each year for the fund raisers is to cover utilities, maintenance and general expenses.

4. You: gifts and charitable contributions help us balance the budget and plan for the future.  RCS is a 501 (c) 3 non-profit charitable organization and as such any gift or contribution is tax deductible.  Currently our financial stability is "fair."  That simply means that we are surviving but as our enrollment increases and the facilities age we must look to future repairs and improvements.  Please prayerfully consider a one-time, annual or monthly tax deductible contribution.  Any amount given will be greatly appreciated.
