Ruskin Christian School, serving the South Shore community since 1968, was established under the direction and leadership of First Baptist Church in order to provide students with a quality academic education integrated with a Christian view of God and the world. The RCS staff is professional and called to serve families by teaching and modeling a Christ-centered life that glorifies Jesus Christ. Over the years the school program has expanded, but the mission remains the same.
Our Mission
RCS, a ministry of First Baptist Church, exists to teach biblical values in a Christ-centered environment and to assist the home and church in their endeavor to “Train up a child in the way he should go…” (Proverbs 22:6) by providing each student with the opportunity for academic achievement, spiritual growth, and social development.
