Enroll Your Child at Bruce-Guadalupe Community School

Curriculum

The schools deliver a curriculum that fosters high expectations and emphasizes core academics. UCC provides a culturally responsive environment where parental involvement is one of the cornerstones of the educational program. The curriculum is designed to develop students who are prepared for college or career, while maintaining cultural pride through extracurricular programming and well-rounded school experiences.

Test Scores

When standardized test scores are released, UCC doesn't focus on comparative scores from other low-income and/or Hispanic schools or districts. We focus on other schools—public or private, urban or suburban— that are performing the best as a measuring tool for its own success.

Outcomes

• 98% attendance rate
• 97% retention rate of returning students
• 95% of students who graduated in 1998 completed high school in June 2002.
• More than half of the students in each graduating class at BGCS have gone on to private high schools.

Fifth Quarter - Summer School

Our K4-8th grade students are provided access to a 19-day summer school program designed to enhance academic performance within core subjects during the morning while providing recreational and enrichment activities in the afternoon. Our 5th quarter summer school program extends our school year instruction to help our students maintain and continue to build their academic skills during the summer months.
