| Welcome
to Castle Rock School, our little "gem" in the heart of California's
North State. Our staff and community are committed to providing
the highest quality educational program for each of our students.
All of our teachers are fully credentialed, several have Masters
degrees, and the high quality of their professionalism shows
through everyday in their classrooms.
Our
program begins with a state-funded Montessori preschool, which
is housed in the renovated historic "old school." The preschool
program provides the critical first steps our students need
and I encourage you to visit the preschool link on our website
for more information. A full-day Montessori-based Kindergarten
and First Grade classroom is the next step in our educational
program. The students in Kindergarten - 8th attend school
in our beautifully maintained main campus, originally built
in 1955. They study a rigorous, comprehensive, standards-based
curriculum, which is supplemented with many special programs.
These programs include art, music (including choir, band,
piano/guitar lessons), interscholastic athletics, a school-community
garden, GATE, full-service library, computer lab/class with
internet connection, to name a few.
It
is Castle Rock School's belief that ALL students can learn
and that families and public education are the foundation
for our nation's future. We maintain the highest expectations
for both staff and students, who readily meet the challenges
facing education today. We believe that by listening to your
community, building a team, maintaining a positive attitude
and working diligently and with purpose that public schools
can achieve their desired results of producing successful
and well-rounded citizens both intellectually and socially.
