Our District's Mission

RCSD creates a safe and supportive, inspirational and rigorous, joyful and inclusive environment for all learners

PreK

The preschool program forms the foundation for later life learning in all domains of development, including socio-emotional, language, literacy, and mathematics.

Transitional Kindergarten (TK)

The TK class provides more opportunities for social-emotional and language development, including mathematics functions through interactive, hands-on activities, which helps students develop and build upon existing skills to be successful in kindergarten, and stimulating classroom centers, which focus on science, mathematics, writing, arts and crafts, community role play, etc.

Kindergarten

Kindergarten is a time for students to get acclimated to school, make friends, and have fun learning while doing. Time in the classroom–and recess time–builds relationships, hones lifelong skills, and fosters a positive attitude toward learning. Fun hands-on enrichment activities in math and science, skill building in language arts, early digital literacy opportunities, and introductions to arts and music are provided to students as they learn the structures of the classroom.  

Community, Culture, and Quality are Key, Neighborhood School Parents Say

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, no mel moderatius liberavisse deterruisset. His eu deleniti liberavisse, in saepe sanctus docendi eum. Ius iisque officiis quaerendum ne, ad eam putant scaevola definitionem. Cu qui omnesque concludaturque, an nominati sensibus torquatos eam. Et dicat aliquip mel.

Beyond School Rankings: A More Holistic Approach to School Ratings

“Parents bring their hopes and their fears about their child’s education to the decision about where to live ... Too often, parents rely on third-party rankings that don’t tell the whole story about a school.”

Hoover Community School and Boys and Girls Club of the Peninsula Partnership Recognized For Their After School Tutoring Progress

The San Mateo County Office of Education awarded the program the Excellence in Education and Equity Award in May for making a difference in students’ lives.
