RANDOLPH EARLY COLLEGE HIGH SCHOOL

Randolph Early College High is a Title I public high school that is part of the Randolph County School System school district, located in Asheboro, NC with about 362 students offering grade levels from 9th Grade to 13th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 12 teachers, Randolph Early College High has a student/teacher ratio of about 30:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Randolph Early College High (RECH), located in Asheboro, North Carolina, is an innovative public high school that operates in partnership with Randolph Community College. Designed as a specialized "early college" program, the school allows students to pursue a rigorous curriculum that integrates high school graduation requirements with the opportunity to earn transferable college credits or an associate degree simultaneously. This model is specifically structured to support students in a smaller, more focused environment, helping them transition seamlessly from secondary education into higher education or the workforce.

The school emphasizes a culture of academic excellence and college readiness, attracting students who are looking for a non-traditional, accelerated path. By leveraging the resources of both the Randolph County School System and the local community college, RECH provides its students with a unique academic experience that reduces the time and cost associated with a traditional four-year degree. Its location on the Industrial Park Avenue campus serves as a hub for students aiming to gain a competitive edge by balancing high school coursework with college-level expectations in a supportive, professional setting.
