To give thanks to our Lord by returning a portion of that with which he has blessed us. We can fulfill our responsibility as Christian stewards by:
- Giving to the Rosehill Charitable Foundation to help build a strong Christian base for the future leaders of our churches, community, nation and world.
- Taking advantage of our state and federal tax laws which encourage charitable giving while providing considerable financial advantages to you and also to your estate if these gifts are made while you are alive.
- Promoting Christ-centered education over other alternatives and thereby continue its influence over society.
Tuition does not cover the complete operating costs of educating each student at RCS? This is common among private schools that quote anywhere from 80% to 90% is covered by tuition. Private schools use annual giving funds like The RCS Annual Fund to help offset the difference. Annual funds also fund small projects that can be completed over a one year time period.
Thank you for your support of this year's
Golf-A-Thon!
This year's golf-a-thon was a great success and we thank our RCS Families and community friends for their overwhelming support and participation. We look forward to next year's golf-a-thon! Save the date, Monday, November 12th 2012.

They have done this by awarding bonus incentives to teachers selected on the basis of merit by RCS administrators. This effect of this program has been to invigorate the faculty, as well as the educational environment, at RCS.
