Niche User: I am a product of the Douglas County School system and I am currently teaching in the system...I love Douglas County. When I started my teaching career I was teaching in another county; however, I love DCSS so much that once I became I mom I made sure I was teaching in this county prior to my own children starting school. My children are now wrapping up their own school career and I couldn't be more happier with my decision to bring them to Douglas County. This county continues to grow and change with the times to stay current and to ensure they are providing EVERY opportunity for their students to be successful in life. Thank you Douglas County for putting the next generation a priority!... Read 280 reviews

Parent: The Admissions department made the application process seamless. They were easy to reach; gladly returned phone calls and inquiries; and, assisted with the application process during each step. Compared to other independent college prep institutions, RMA is a small school. However, we were thoroughly impressed with the diversity that we saw during the summer camp program; We were pleased to see that it carried over to the academic year. The curriculum is rigorous. The staff is caring. There are a variety of extracurricular activities that are day and boarding inclusive. Any family "on the fence" about RMA should definitely consider a second look, or reach out to staff. You'll be glad you did!... Read 162 reviews
