Rising Tide Charter Public School Reviews
Rating 3.97 out of 5 86 reviews
Overall, my experience with the Rising Tide High School has been very decent. The vast majority of the teachers here are very respectful and flexible with those who have been assigned IEPs such as myself. However, the school could promote more diversity of thought, as a disproportionate amount of students have been absorbed into radical pop culture, and a lot of them seem very exclusive to individuals who possess different interests.
I really love the teachers here. They all really encourage your learning and make you actually want to be in school. But most of all, they are relatable and know how to connect with me. While the administration is difficult to deal with at times and they definitely dictate a lot of the decisions at the school that the student body does not approve of (we can’t wear any t-shirts for example with any logo or writing on it), I think they are what made me stay here for my high school years!
I attended Rising Tide from grade 5-12, and I graduated in 2019. Rising Tide is a small school with a very tight-knit environment. This benefited me in many ways; I stayed close with friends, I formed close relationships with teachers (who I still keep in touch with), and was able to get a lot more 1 on 1 learning because class sizes are kept small. I even took a class with just my teacher and I my junior year, and it was my favorite experience there. The teachers here are extremely invested in their students' academic status as well as emotional well being.
The drawback that comes with the excellent classroom instruction and teachers is the administration. They were known to have bias against certain teachers, which resulted in a lack of support and funding to their dept.. This affected mainly the English and Arts departments.
I would recommend RTCS for any high-achieving young person, especially one who thrives in a small environment.
