A common misconception is that on of the colors of RCHS is navy. It has rather been named "lapis" in honor of William Butler Yeats' famous poem "Lapis Lazuli."
Please use a source for this statement. Also, please sign any discussion using the four tildes Acidskater 04:12, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
How about you source navy blue being the school color?
I'm not denying that the color may be lapis, but you need to provide a source. I don't have a source either, but navy is the widely accepted color as far as I know. Until a source can be found we will not list any colors. Also, I'm guessing you are Jeick, who attends RCHS currently and have the resources to find the color. Also, sign your name in a discussion using the four tildes. Go here for more information. Acidskater 20:28, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
I currently go to RCHS and I can confirm that the school color is "lapis". But how do you source that. Thetheroo

Its pretty Informal, has been mentioned in the school newspaper once or twice. But it is generally a student consensus that the school color is Lapis. Thetheroo
I believe the total attendence, average class size, and student to faculty ratio are off
I think you're right. I believe that data is about two years old. At this point the school is closer to 400 students. Perhaps this article should include a part about the recent controversy about the school's "no free lunches" and the accusations of elitism.
Reply from RCHS Student. In 2006 we have approximately 500 students. This article is considerably accurate.
Reply from RCHS Student (October 1, 2007) Yes there are just under 500 students. Who has accused the school of being elite? The school is not a private school, there is no tuition, and so private schools are elite, and I'm sure lunches there cost money. There are opportunities at school for cheap food, healthy snacks (yougurt, apples, granola bars, cheese) are sold at school every day starting at 50 cents and going to $1.50, perhaps someone would like to add this. The sales are called phoenix phoods and is sponsored by the Key Club.-- Phoenixphanatic 00:53, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
I have seperated the mission statement into its own section for clarity, but the future tense is still awkward. If anyone has ideas on how to make it more straightforward, please do. Benstrider 22:30, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
North Carolina has other high school rowing teams. In Raleigh, there's Wake Rowing and Broughton/Enloe, I believe. Now, if "varsity" means something in particular that those teams aren't, then okay. The remark on this page that Raleigh Charter has the only varsity crew team in NC was made in Nov 2005. Daniel M. Roberts 21:50, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
The distinction is that other teams (ie: Broughton and Enloe) are club sports, not official school varsity teams.
A dispute has begun between myself and a user at IP address 70.144.191.93 about the infobox. Please list what infobox you would like to use, if any. I would like to keep Infobox:School2, as it has been on the Raleigh Charter page for some time now. Acidskater 04:16, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
There is a now a userbox template and category available that relate to this article:
RCHS | This user attends or attended Raleigh Charter High School. |
To add this box and join the category, add {{
User RCHS}} to your
user page.

Image:Rchs.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. BetacommandBot 23:23, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
