RCBA is a ministry of River City Community Church under the leadership of Pastor Sean Azzaro. Pastor Sean has a passion to see RCBA be a different kind of Christian school.
Our mission at RCBA is to prepare students for real life. We work very hard to be a place where each student can grow in relationship with our creator and then acquire the tools to answer His call to change the world! Everything we do, from academics and fine arts to athletics and student life is an opportunity for our students to discover and become the individual that God created them to be! If you are looking for a school that will challenge students to grow as a whole person…spiritually, academically, socially and, physically, then RCBA is the school for you!
I am excited about working together this year with the staff, faculty, parents, and students at River City Believers Academy to make this school one that not only offers quality education, but also honors God above all else.
In my fifteen years of Christian education, I have been a teacher, a guidance counselor and an assistant principal. With these various jobs, God has equipped me to work with students as they seek His will in their lives. Each believer is gifted by God to serve Him in His kingdom, and there is no minimum age for discovering His plans. My desire is to help students discover their own path and how to run their race with excellence.
“Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize.” 1 Cor. 9:24

I am so excited to be a part of the vision and mission here at RCBA and enjoy coming to school every day. Our “RCBA family” and Christ-centered campus challenges students to “walk in the truth”; discovering their gifts and talents while strengthening their academics to pursue their post secondary aspirations.
We are blessed to have a gifted and committed faculty and staff that bring the joy of learning into each class and I am honored to serve alongside them encouraging the next generation of believers.
“I have no greater joy than to see my children walk in the truth.” 3 John 4
