  3. Provide and maintain a positive school climate in which each student can develop self-discipline, self-respect, self-confidence, and self reliance.
  4. Provide for each student individual and group activities that explore creative talents needed to develop social and occupational awareness.
  5. Provide means that enable parents to assume responsibility in preparing their children for learning and to remain involved throughout the formal educational process.

Student achievement at Randolph Southern has been outstanding throughout the years. Our students continue to participate in literary, one-act play and other academic competitions held by colleges and the GIAS organization. Through team cooperation and a determined spirit, many athletic honors have been won in basketball, softball, cross country, baseball, football, tennis, golf, and track. Most recently RSS captured a boys State Championship (2004-2005) in basketball, and our girls (2005-2006) captured the State title in track. During the 2005-2006 school year, the varsity girls program was awarded the "GISA Class A All Sports Trophy". This award recognizes the most outstanding athletic program in the State.
