Why do students have to write essays when artificial intelligence models can do it faster and better? Why do my kids have to learn to do math when they will always have a calculator available? More generally, why should a human do it, if AI can do it “better?”

Come Work With Us!

Have you ever thought about substitute teaching?


Now is the perfect time to get involved! Subbing is a rewarding way to make a difference in the lives of our students while spending time in the school with your own child, experiencing the classroom environment firsthand, and building meaningful relationships with our incredible teachers and staff. Even serving a few days can make a BIG difference!


Not able to sub yourself?


You can still help by spreading the word to friends, family members, or anyone who might be interested in joining our substitute team.

RSU Marble Madness Recap

Congratulations to Jack Doering, Evan Long, Kason Miles, and Miles Peck, who earned 2nd place out of 17 teams!


We are also proud of Sufira Blasi, Isaiah Davis, Abel Kirkendall, Easton Nottingham, Hudson Adamek, Carson Doering, Ashlyn Sauer, and Megan Smith for representing Rejoice so well.

Red Ribbon Week – October 26–30

The purpose of Red Ribbon Week is to promote drug, tobacco, and violence prevention through awareness campaigns held every October in the United States. At Rejoice Christian School, we spend the week focusing on God’s plan for our lives. We want to love and serve Him, keep a healthy body to do what He has called us to do, be ourselves and proud of the differences we all have, think on things pleasing to the Lord, and choose to be a teammate!

RCS to Host Annual
Veterans Day Program

This year’s program artwork was created by RCS students Emma Arthur and Elli Gatewood.

Rejoice Christian School will host its annual Veterans Day Program on Friday, November 6, at 10:00 am in the RCS auditorium. Doors open at 9:30 am. Guests should enter through the middle school entrance.


For more than 30 years, Rejoice Christian School has continued this meaningful tradition, with fourth-grade students leading a heartfelt tribute to the brave men and women who have served our country. The program honors the courage, sacrifice, and dedication of our veterans and reminds students of the freedoms made possible through their service.


Rejoice Christian School is grateful for the opportunity to honor those who have served and to teach the next generation the importance of gratitude, remembrance, and service. Thank you to our veterans!
