Open Quote Just last year they started accepting middle schoolers here and I’m in the 7th grade and the school is very beautiful it has 3 floors Close Quote


by a teacher
Tuesday, December 29, 2015

Open Quote Having worked as a substitute for three years in the Richmond County School district in over thirty different schools, I think I have a unique perspective of the quality and kind of education you will find here. My five star rating is also based on 28 years of teaching in another state and 34 years in military, four years as a liaison for the United States Air Force Academy. I was introduced to STEM, (science, technology, engineering and math) in 2000 as a member of the International Education And Resource Network. I gave presentations on the integration of technology in conferences in Japan, Egypt and Senegal. STEM initiatives were launched in Georgia in 2005. TCM business partners provide funding and guidance to increase the number of students who pursue majors and careers in the field of science, technology, engineering and math. Overall the district rates an "A" in STEM initiatives, however there must be a number one school who encompasses those ideals of STEM. That school is The Richmond County Technical Career Magnet School. Its' programs are designed to attract a variety of interests. from culinary arts, cyber security, audio visual and film technology, computer networking, energy and electronics. But these are the pathways that are designed to secure a job, especially with dual enrollment at Augusta Tech, positioned next to the campus. TCM has after, before and during the school day clubs that attract interests in aeronautical engineering, non-kit rocketry, flight school, design lab, solar energy, and much more. Want to find out more, visit the campus! One look and you'll be hooked.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
