School Goals

Proficiency-based learning is the framework for RPA. Flexibility and creative approaches to reach every student are central to RPA’s middle- and high-school program. While standards and credits at RPA are rigorous and aligned to state expectations, students have multiple options and flexible timelines to demonstrate proficiency of those standards. Every aspect of the school is differentiated to meet the students where they are, whether they need extra help or extra challenges or both.

State Goals

The Oregon Department of Education is partnering with school districts and local communities to ensure a 90% ontime, four year graduation rate by 2025. To progress toward this goal, the state will prioritize efforts to improve attendance, provide a well-rounded education, invest in implementing culturally responsive practices, and promote continuous improvement to close opportunity and achievement gaps for historically and currently underserved students.

Safe & Welcoming Environment

RPA has a very diverse student population coming from all over Central Oregon. Recognizing this, staff and students prioritize modeling respect, inclusion, and acceptance. RPA works with all students to embody the tagline "I Am RPA, We Are One" by teaching students to appreciate their value and the value of others. RPA students celebrate "We Are One" activities to enrich school unity and embrace the seven habits of dependability, optimism, respect, curiosity, zest, gratitude, and grit.
