Both our school's name and our 5th core value were inspired by the effort the community put forth to make this space a reality. The 'fuerza' and 'ganas' it takes to keep pushing, keep showing up, and to make the best possible future happen for our children is what makes us special here at Rocketship Fuerza Community Prep!
