Health care is one of the fastest growing industries in the country. The Rhode Island Nurses Institute Middle College Charter High School was created to afford students in Providence with an early start to their nursing careers. It's also the first charter school in the country dedicated to nursing and health care professionals.
As a charter school, tuition is free and enrollment is open to any high school student residing in Rhode Island. Graduates go on to complete their nursing degrees and work directly in their desired fields. They start university with a full slate of acquired credits, internship opportunities and at least one patient care technician certification. The school's college preparatory program of study also allows students to obtain certifications in first aid, CPR and training for certified nursing assistants and emergency medical technicians.
Graduation requirements include all courses designated by the Rhode Island Department of Education in addition to nursing courses, internship credits and entry-level patient care licenses. Given the rigor of the academic curriculum, students are expected to produce college-level work and the school provides multiple opportunities for work-based learning in hospital and health care settings.
Self-motivated students committed to a future in nursing are encouraged to apply to the Rhode Island Nurses Institute Middle College Charter High School near the completion of eighth grade. Students who are successful in their first year can start taking a combination of high school and college courses offered through the University of Rhode Island, the Community College of Rhode Island, Roger Williams University and Rhode Island College.

Rini and I overall is not a good school. I wouldn't recommend anybody's kids to go there to be completely honest. They are very unprofessional. Never have any of their stuff together just disrespectful. The students think money grows on trees. They only care about their appearance and what other people see on the outside The only thing that's good about it. Is that your CNA licensing your CPR license but other than that, do not go to Rini.

I've been in RINI for almost years. When I first came I didn't like it, we only have half of our school building. Since being here we've went on like three field trips. I've started liking RINI not because of the school but because of some of the teachers and my friends.
5/13/2024
Rini Mc is genuinely a good school if you are sure you want to be in the medical field but other than that if you're not sure, I wouldn't recommend going. It only allows you to have knowledge on the medical field and if you really do want your cna license before you graduate you could just take the cna class Through Acn, which would allow you to have a normal highschool experience. The food is not really good and faculty are not that professional as they don't communicate well with teachers, students and parents. I would also like to say this isn't the only highschool you can get your cna license.
