About Richmond College Prep Schools:
We are a high performing charter school in Richmond. We started with a preschool in 2004, and we now serve students in preschool, as well as students in TK through 6th grades. Next year, we are opening a seventh grade, and the following year, we’re adding an eighth grade. We’re currently looking for teachers who love middle school age students, and who are eager to help our school leaders create an enriching, rigorous and culturally responsive program for our middle school students.
