OUR FOUNDATION

Vision

Technical crew members on the stage of Little Shop of Horrors.

RCHS Productions is a creative learning community where students discover who they are, explore what's possible, and collaborate to create meaningful stories that positively impact their communities and the world.

Mission

Two students discuss a camera shot wile framing two RCTV reporters.

RCHS Productions equips diverse learners with the artistic, technical, and professional skills to discover themselves, tell meaningful stories, and pursue future opportunities through theatre, film, media, and creative collaboration.​​​

Values

High school performers give high fives to elementary school audience members.

Curiosity
Integrity
Collaboration
Creativity
Empathy
Excellence
Courage​

Educational Philosophy

Stories have the power to connect people, inspire change, and help us better understand ourselves and the world around us. We believe students learn best by creating those stories together.

RCHS Productions provides authentic, project-based experiences where students take ownership of meaningful work, embrace creative risk, solve real problems, and collaborate with purpose. Every rehearsal, production, film, and performance becomes an opportunity to develop artistic excellence, technical skill, professional responsibility, and personal character.
​
Whether students pursue careers in the creative industries or choose another path, they leave our program with more than a portfolio—they leave with the confidence to create, the courage to lead, and the ability to connect with others through empathy, collaboration, and lifelong curiosity.
