American Education Reaches Out (AERO)
Rocklin's U.S. curriculum aligns with the American Education Reaches Out project (AERO). AERO is a project supported by the U.S. State Department’s Office of Overseas Schools and establishes a framework for developing and implementing the Common Core State Standards in international American schools.
By following the framework from AERO, we are able to provide consistent, high-quality education from Pre-Kindergarten through High School. In each subject and grade level, we strive to have the content of our written and taught curriculum fully align with the AERO standards and performance indicators. Our goal is for our assessments to be aligned with our learning targets and for all assessments to measure standards-based content. ​
Rocklin's Programs
Rocklin International School has grades from Pre-Kindergarten through Grade 12. Students belong to our Elementary School (PreKindergarten-Grade 5), Middle School (Grades 6-8), and High School (Grades 9-12). Classes in each grade seek to educate students holistically, focusing on both academic achievement and physical and mental well-being.
