The
hours of operation of the charter school are from 8:00 AM until
4:00 PM for teachers and 8:20 AM until 3:30 PM for students. Students
should arrive at the charter school no earlier than 7:45 AM. Students
arriving before 7:45 AM will not be supervised. The Richard Allen
Preparatory Charter School, Inc. cannot be responsible for students
left unattended before appropriate school hours. Leaving students
unattended before school hours will be viewed by this institution
as parental neglect. A report will filed with the Department of
Human Services (DHS) in such instances.
During afternoon dismissal, students are to exit
the building and immediately leave the premises. Unless involved
in an after school activity, students may not stay on school premises
after hours.
At the Richard Allen Preparatory Charter School, we
believe reading is the most vital tool ensuring academic
success. Each day, we have a 15 minute period in which
every member of the school community reads for enjoyment.
Students, teachers, administrators, staff members, and
even visitors read during this time. If you come to
visit our school at 8:30 AM, be sure to bring a book.
If you don't have one, we're happy to provide one for
you.
