2026-2027 A New Era in School Choice
In today’s world, families are looking for schools that align with their values, support their priorities, and help each child thrive academically, spiritually, and personally. At Rancho Christian School, we understand that every student is uniquely created by God, and their educational journey should reflect that.
Beginning with the 2026–27 school year, Rancho Christian School is excited to introduce a New Era in School Choice for prospective families, offering expanded options from preschool through high school while remaining firmly rooted in Christ-centered care, academic excellence, and whole-student development.
Secondary School Choice
Rancho Christian Middle School and High School are college preparatory schools with comprehensive offerings in advanced academics, educational support, athletics, arts, student life, and leadership development, all within a community of Christlike care.
Our graduates are prepared for university and for life. Graduation requirements meet University of California standards, and students have gone on to attend premier universities, pursue meaningful careers, build thriving families, and maintain a lifelong relationship with God.
The core Rancho Christian college-preparatory experience will remain strong and continue to grow. Beginning in the 2026–27 school year, prospective families will also be able to choose a new pathway: the Rancho Christian Sports Academy, a unique college-preparatory track with a focused emphasis on athlete development.
The Rancho Christian Sports Academy represents a new era in school choice.
The Rancho Christian Sports Academy
Rancho Christian School has a long-standing commitment to excellence in both academics and athletics. Our programs have earned numerous league and CIF championships, including a football State Championship, while consistently prioritizing student-athlete growth, integrity, and character.
The Sports Academy is designed to support and enhance student-athlete development, not replace the traditional team experience. All athletes continue to earn team placement through tryouts and coach evaluation, ensuring fairness, competitive excellence, and integrity across all programs. The Academy exists to prepare, develop, and empower student-athletes to compete at their highest level.
For families pursuing collegiate athletics, Rancho Christian High School has one of the highest percentages of athletes earning college scholarships in the region. Along the way, students develop Christlike character, leadership skills, and lifelong friendships.
Unlike standalone sports academies, the Rancho Christian Sports Academy provides exceptional athletic training within an exceptional academic environment. For students aspiring to compete at the collegiate level, college-preparatory academics remain essential.
Sports Academy students will participate in two to three dedicated training blocks each school day, depending on their academic plan. These blocks follow a Personalized Training Plan (PTP) customized for each student’s age, gender, sport, and position. Training includes strength and conditioning, speed and agility, nutrition, mental focus, spiritual growth, leadership development, injury rehabilitation, and college recruitment support.
All training is supervised by qualified and experienced staff, including certified trainers and coaches. The program emphasizes a body, mind, and soul approach to athletic development, intentionally integrating faith, discipline, and purpose.
Tuition for Sports Academy students remains the same as the traditional program, with a small monthly fee to support and maintain the Personalized Training Program.

Preschool Choice
Young families need flexibility. Rancho Christian Preschool is expanding options while maintaining its faith-based, academic foundation.
Beginning with the 2026–27 school year, families can benefit from:
Extended daycare hours from 6:30am–6:00pm
Year-round, faith-based academic programming
Fewer closure days
These enhancements allow families to customize schedules to meet their needs while ensuring children receive loving care, strong academics, and a Christ-centered foundation.
Offering more preschool options is a new era in school choice.
Our Commitment to Prospective Families
At Rancho Christian School, we believe children are a gift from God, entrusted to families. Our commitment is to walk alongside parents by providing thoughtful, high-quality educational options that create the best possible outcomes for each student.
As we look to the future, we plan to continue expanding opportunities for students to specialize in their areas of strength and passion, especially throughout secondary school. An arts academy is a future goal as we continue to build pathways that help students thrive.
