***PCRP Supports New School for South Placer (Get Involved)
Posted by Aaron Park on July 11, 2008 at 07:42 AM
The Placer County Republican Central Committee is requesting that the Rocklin Unified School District Board of Trustees approve the revised charter school petition for the creation of the Western Sierra Collegiate Academy (WSCA).
Rocklin and the entire south Placer County area will benefit from a public school that will provide challenging and focused college preparatory education in a small school setting. We support providing parents with school choices so they are able to choose the school that best meets the needs of their children, be they comprehensive high schools or small schools such as WSCA. We support schools that add to the economic viability of our county by preparing graduates for the best public and private colleges. Schools such as WSCA are also important as businesses seek to attract and retain high quality/high skill employees. Rocklin Academy, with its seven year history as an outstanding K-6 school, is a strong foundation to create WSCA.
HOW YOU CAN HELP
Attend the Rocklin Unified School District Board of Trustees Meeting on 7/16/08 at 7:00 p.m. A strong show of support is important to show that our community values choice and wants the opportunities WSCA will offer.
E-mail and call each RUSD Board member and urge them to approve the WSCA Charter petition. (Please be respectful and positive.) Please send a cc of your e-mails to dpatterson@rocklinacademy.org. Here are their e-mail addresses and phone numbers:

Western Sierra Collegiate Academy (WSCA) will provide students with a challenging and comprehensive college preparatory education in a small public school setting.
WSCA will be a college preparatory charter public school serving students in grades seven through twelve. WSCA will provide an engaging and rigorous academic curriculum, focusing on math, science, social studies, and the arts. All students will be enrolled in the courses needed to attend the University of California, California State Universities, and the most selective private universities.
Thank you for your help for this important community initiative.
