President/CEO's Message
ELITE Public Schools is a TK-12 charter public school located within the boundaries of Vallejo City Unified
School District (VCUSD). ELITE stands for Equipping Leaders through Innovation, Technology and Engineer-
ing.
The educational experience for students in ELITE Public Schools is designed to ensure that students meet rig-
orous academic standards while being exposed to curricular and extracurricular offerings that prepare them
to enter prestigious four-year colleges and universities and become global leaders.
ELITE is comprised of four design elements that form the foundation of our success:
entrepreneurial skill development, language development, a dual immersion pathway, and the African Amer-
ican and Latino cultural heritage program. These elements provide students with the opportunity to invent,
discover and develop themselves to achieve the necessary skills to be successful as they move forward in
their lives and careers.
ELITE offers additional features that include:
• Full-day transitional kindergarten (TK) and kindergarten (K)
• Sports programs
School Accountability
• Cognitive development activities
Report Card
• Warriors for Social Justice program In accordance with state and federal
requirements, the School Accountability
• Access to, and effective use of, technology Report Card (SARC) is put forth annually
• Engineering pathway by all public schools as a tool for parents
ELITE will be located within the boundaries of VCUSD and will serve students in grades TK-12. The school and interested parties to stay informed of

ELITE’s program is designed to meet the individual needs of students. Students who are at or above grade
level will participate in skill enhancement and enrichment activities throughout the day. Students who are
below grade level standards will participate in skill-building activities and receive support to make acceler-
ated progress toward meeting standards. ELITE staff members will focus on accelerating the achievement of
all students and eliminate the opportunity gap.
