About
At Rockaway Collegiate High School (RCHS), our students are engaged in enriched college preparatory and early college access programs. Each aspect of our school emphasizes the four pillars of success at Rockaway Collegiate (Rigor, Character, Higher-Order Thinking, Success in College and Career). We offer a collaborative educational experience in which talented students are challenged by our nurturing staff to develop our students academically, socially, and emotionally. Rockaway Collegiate High School is now a FutureReadyNYC school. Beginning with the 2023-2024 school year, our students will explore the healthcare field, specifically the area of Medical Diagnostics, as we continue our goal of ensuring our students’ success in college and beyond. Students will develop meaningful employment-related skills through work-based learning opportunities. They will be provided with opportunities to earn early college credits and healthcare-related credentials. Additionally, our partnership with Computer Science for All allows students to study the capabilities and limitations of computers in addition to developing computational literacy, the ability to understand how computer science can be applied in all walks of life. Computer Science for All provides the opportunity for exploring the following areas: working together to solve problems, writing code and adapting existing code to their own projects, working with teachers and peers to troubleshoot code, and building physical prototypes as part of the design process.
