Construction Update

We've moved into our new kindergarten rooms but we are still waiting for sidewalks before we can use the new office building.  Our School Office will be in the new kindergarten building, Room 2, for the next few weeks.  We anticipate moving into the new office building by April 1st.

Prospective Parents

Tours and pre-registration for new students are finished for this year.  We continue to accept applications but all new applicants will be placed on a waiting list. New tours for 2013-14 will begin again in November, 2012.

We have set aside those times to accept your packet, give you information about the new school year, and to welcome you into the College Park family!   If, due to an emergency, you are unable to come at one of those times, please contact the principal, Diana Hallock, at dhallock@smfc.k12.ca.us

Assemblymember, J. Hill's letter to College Park

Assemblymember, Jerry Hill's letter to CP

Welcome to College Park

The Mandarin Immersion Talented and Gifted Program at College Park is founded on the belief that all students possess talents and gifts.  The educational program at College Park endeavors to identify, nurture and celebrate these qualities in all of our students.  In addition we believe that all students can benefit from, and have the capacity to be bilingual and bicultural.  Regardless of background or home language, all incoming K-3rd graders spend 30-50% of their instructional day learning the California standards in Mandarin Chinese. We will continue adding grade levels until 2013 when we will have Mandairn Immersion K-5.

All College Park teachers receive ongoing training in GLAD, RtI2 and GATE strategies.  GLAD (Guided Language Acquisition by Design) ensures that all students receive daily instruction in language development and advanced vocabulary in listening, speaking, reading and writing.  RtI2 (Response to Instruction and Intervention) utilizes frequent and specific assessments to determine how students are responding to instruction and refers students to interventions that may be required.  GATE (Gifted and Talented Education) gives teachers specific stragies to challenge students to think more critcally, approach challenges more creatively, and solve problems in unique and individual ways.  These are not programs taught in isolation but strategies to enrich instruction in all content areas and in both English and Mandarin.

Welcome to College Park, a rare, exciting  Mandarin gem in the heart of San Mateo-Foster City!

Principal
