The mission of Richard Wright Public Charter School for Journalism and Media Arts is to transform students in grades 8-12 in to well-versed media contributors by providing a student-centered environment that connects them to the classics and modern languages and a curriculum focused in strong writing skills and vocabulary. 

RWPCS recognizes the inherent value of cultivating, establishing, maintaining growing partnerships with diverse community and media organizations, businesses, and other educational institutions. RWPCS works hard to develop reciprocal relationships in the community to enhance and support the learning of students beyond the classroom walls and graduation. These established community, media, and business partnerships and affiliations have led to a multitude of unique and rare opportunities many high school students do not have the chance to experience, and ultimately enhance, supplement, and stimulate a Richard Wright's student’s life holistically. 

The innovative programs and practices executed with consistency and efficacy by a dedicated, caring, and hardworking staff builds a working, learning environment that fosters creativity and exploration which students are excited to be a part of, the results demonstrated in a myriad of ways. Richard Wright aims to fortify its young people with the resounding impact of the education, to transform their lives and those around them, and uphold the vision of “re-writing the future, one student at a time.”
