Literacy in Kindergarten 

At RCS, early reading instruction is targeted, small-group, and multisensory. Grounded in the Science of Reading, this approach brings together auditory, visual, and tactile activities so that every child builds both the decoding skills and the language comprehension that reading depends on.

Small groups let teachers meet each child exactly where they are. Students are supported and challenged at the right level for them, never held back or rushed by a one-size-fits-all pace. In these groups, they build core skills like phonemic awareness and reading comprehension, surrounded by rich literature and joyful learning experiences that help them grow into lifelong readers.
