There’s a lot of different and new classes that help you learn different things in life, how to accomplish them, and work harder.

RCCBA is a very special place and I feel that each time I walk in the door. There is an atmosphere of respect, care and compassion by and for everyone in the building. This is one of the reasons I continue to volunteer even though my kids have been out of the school for years. I have seen kids helping teachers and staff, teachers and staff going the extra mile for kids, countless huge smiles, lots of collaboration, creative problem solving, school spirit and even some top-notch dancing all while learning is taking place. It truly is a special gem on the NW side of Cedar Rapids and I count myself as very lucky to be a part of the Roughrider community!

We pour our passion, care, knowledge, and support into our students while also challenging them to reach their full potential because we know they are capable of great things. No matter the obstacles we face, we do not give up. We continue to grow, improve, and advocate for what our students deserve because we believe they are far more than any number, statistic, or circumstance. Our students are the future, and they are worth our very best."
