Striving for Excellence
All the grade levels at the Ron Clark Academy have a certain number of AR points they must earn each nine weeks. The number of points varies according to the letter grade, for example, a letter grade of a C requires a lower number of points than the letter grade of an A. The staff at RCA goes one step farther; they challenge their students to earn a 100 AR points in order to get accepted into the 100 Point Club. After the past nine weeks, a few of the students were inducted into the 100 Point Club. This past Friday, the members of the 100 Point Club received a new book bag that had their House emblem and colors on it. It was a surprise and rewarded their hard work. This demonstrates just how far students can go when their teachers believe and encourage them to surpass set standards, which is what RCA is all about.
