As a mother of two, I want the best education and support for my children,\u201d said Cindy Navarro, a Concord parent.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI know firsthand from volunteering in the classroom that there are kids that are in need of extra support to ensure their success. After visiting a Rocketship school, I had a chance to experience the inspirational and supportive environment in the schools, not to mention the instruction that caters to the learning styles and unique places that each child is at. I want my children to succeed, and Rocketship brings a great option to parents and families here in Concord for an excellent education.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.rocketshipschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/concord-education-landscape.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-2166\" src=\"http:\/\/www.rocketshipschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/concord-education-landscape.png?w=272\" alt=\"Concord education landscape\" width=\"300\" height=\"331\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rocketshipschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/concord-education-landscape.png 567w, https:\/\/www.rocketshipschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/concord-education-landscape-272x300.png 272w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>While over 75% of students in Contra Costa County are on grade level, seven out of ten students in the Monument Corridor are behind grade level. Only 15% of Latino students in the county graduate high school having completed the requisite coursework needed to gain acceptance into a UC university. This means of the 606 Latino students who graduated in 2013, only 91 were college ready.<\/p>\n<p>With a proven track record of success in San Jose, Rocketship is striving to break this cycle with the introduction of a high performing, public charter elementary school in the Monument Corridor in 2016 to eliminate the achievement gap.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re incredibly excited to build a new school in the Monument Corridor,\u201d said David Kuizenga, Vice President of Rocketship in the Bay Area. \u201cWe\u2019ve been working with the Concord community and local parents to learn about the needs of their students, and how Rocketship can best serve them. We are optimistic about our partnerships in the community and the progress we can make together to eliminate the achievement gap in the Monument Corridor.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We proudly support the introduction of quality education choices for the families and children in the Monument Corridor,\u201d said Alex Chavez, Chair of the Central County Regional Group sponsored by First Five Contra Costa.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re excited to learn more about the opportunities Rocketship will offer the students and families in the community.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>We are aiming to open our\u00a0new elementary school in the Monument Corridor in fall of 2016.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><em>Kevin trabaja en el Equipo de Soporte de Cohetes de Rocketship como el narrador residente de Rocketship.
