Advancement Via Individual Determination (AVID)
Background on Program
AVID is an elementary through postsecondary college readiness system that is designed to increase school-wide learning and performance. The AVID system accelerates student learning, uses research-based methods of effective instruction, provides meaningful and motivational professional development, and acts as a catalyst for systemic reform and change.
English Learners
The California Department of Education supports Local Education Agencies (school districts) to achieve the following goals that focus on helping to close the achievement gap that separates English learners from their native English-speaking peers:
World Language
All four of our middle schools offer a World Language program as well as one of our elementary campuses, Sargeant Elementary. Students have the opportunity to learn Spanish before they go to high school. Our RCSD World Language program uses the TPRS (Teaching Proficiency through Reading and Storytelling) method of foreign language teaching. This type of program is different from how many adults learned a foreign language when they were in school. “Our focus at RCSD is on comprehension and conversation.
Gifted and Talented Education
GATE
Gifted and Talented Education provides differentiated curriculum and instructional services to students who are identified as having abilities and/or potential for high performance.
The mission of the Roseville City School District is to identify and serve gifted students. We provide rigorous instructional learning opportunities based on grade level standards. It is our goal to provide all students we serve with the tools necessary to reach their full academic and personal potential.
International Baccalaureate
We proudly offer International Baccalaureate (IB) programs at Eich Middle School and Sargeant Elementary.
Project Lead The Way
PLTW
Project Lead The Way (PLTW) is a program that introduces students to STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) concepts and allows them to grow with confidence and interest in these areas. The program allows them to be problem solvers and employ critical thinking. Project Lead the Way is offered at Stoneridge Elementary school and Chilton Middle School. Every student in grades kindergarten through 5th grade participates in PLTW at Stoneridge, and it is offered as an elective at Chilton.
