We love it, the principal's awesome, breakfast and lunch are free (so no having to pack!), and there are tons of amazing teachers who give 100% to engage the kids. Check out the school's Instagram and the PTA's Instagram to get more of a feel for what's going on around school. And above all, contact the office to schedule a tour. Walking around a school yourself is worth much more than anything you'll read online.

On a broader note, here's a long comment I wrote about RPS about two years ago, and I still stand by it. There are problems, absolutely. But there were problems in my Chesterfield County schools growing up too, and I grew up happy (what matters, imo) and what the world would consider "successful" too. Come be a part of the families in RPS who're showing up, supporting our schools, and helping to improve them for everyone.
