Bilingual Academics
San Felipe Del Rio CISD’s reform of the Bilingual Program provides new opportunities for teachers to routinely implement purposeful linguistic accommodations through tiered classroom instruction for ELL students throughout the course of the school year.
Gifted & Talented
The state's goal for G/T students is to ensure that those students who participate in G/T services demonstrate skills in self-directed learning, thinking, research, and communication. By the 2017-2018 school year, San Felipe Del Rio CISD will initiate a redesigned plan to establish a protocol for services that leads 1st-12th grade G/T students to a pathway of depth and complexity beyond the general curriculum.
Leader In Me
The Leader in Me is Franklin Covey’s whole school transformation process. It teaches 21st century leadership and life skills to students and creates a culture of student empowerment based on the idea that every child can be a leader. In an effort to develop and support the 7 Habits, San Felipe Del Rio CISD proudly implements this leadership model in each of our elementary schools.
Power Hour
Power Hour provides all K-12 students with the support, resources and guidance necessary to guide students to achieve academic success in reading skills and comprehension. The program operates on the belief that a child’s progress depends upon open communication, routine support and progress monitoring between students, staff and parents. Many of the children attending the program consistently achieve grade level improvements as seen through their formal school assessments – test scores and report cards.
Athletics
San Felipe Del Rio CISD’s Athletic Program takes pride in providing opportunities for athletes, teams and coaches to reach their highest potential both on and off the playing field. Our educational commitment is academics first and then athletics. We strive to model and instill in our athletes accountability, responsibility, respect, dedication, commitment to a cause, and the belief that there are no short cuts to success.
Blended Academy
San Felipe Del Rio CISD’s Blended Academy targets Del Rio’s at-risk middle and high school students by implementing a customized and personalized standards-based instructional environment using multiple models of blended learning.
Career & Technical Education (CTE)
San Felipe Del Rio CISD’s Career and Technical Education (CTE) programs offer a sequence of courses that provides students with coherent and rigorous content aligned with challenging academic standards and relevant technical knowledge and skills needed to prepare them for further education and careers in current or emerging professions.
Early College High School
San Felipe Del Rio CISD’s Early College High School is a college preparatory dual enrollment high school program strategically designed to fulfill and exceed college and university admission requirements. It is an academic program intended to enable students to pursue post-secondary education at a community college, four-year college, or university.
Fine Arts
The San Felipe CISD and the Fine Arts Department believe that a Fine Arts education is essential for the development of the whole child. The arts provide students with unique experiences that allow them to explore their passions, maximize their creativity and critical thinking skills, and learn valuable lessons about self-motivation, dedication, team work, and communication.
UIL Academics
San Felipe Del Rio CISD takes pride in supporting UIL Academics. The district offers elementary, middle school and high school comprehensive literary and academic competitive program activities at every campus.
