The mission of Rachel Carson High School is to provide every student with a student-centered and rigorous curriculum that fosters critical thinking. We seek to ensure that each student displays grit, perseverance and empathy, is prepared for college or the world of work and has a post-graduation plan, is able to productively collaborate with peers, is open to new experiences, and is environmentally conscious. We expect that when students graduate from our school that they go out into the world as analytical, compassionate, thoughtful, and productive citizens who advocate for themselves and those in need.
