WELCOME TO ELEMENTARY AT RICA!

RICA offers families a blended and balanced approach to K-6 education by combining school-site instruction with home-based learning. RICA's elementary program is housed on an elementary campus within the Rocklin Unified School District's family of schools. While participating in class activities, RICA students share the school's library, playground, and lunch program.

School and Family Collaborative Education

The Rocklin Independent Charter Academy partners with families to provide a unique learning model where students can discover their and in a and learning environment.

Our Model

2 days of AT SCHOOL ~ Project-Based Learning

3 days AT HOME ~ Family-Facilitated Learning

Students attend school either Tuesday AND Thursday OR Wednesday AND Friday with additional opportunities to participate in after school clubs. At-school learning is project-based, taught by credentialed teachers and integrates Science and Math. At-home learning (also called family facilitated off-site learning) focuses on English Language Arts, Social Studies and Extracurricular activities. Families are the primary educators on non-classroom days and are provided guidance and materials by supervising credentialed teachers in order to to be successful as at-home educators.
