At Alignment Rockford we enact systemic change by connecting organizations, businesses, and individuals to Rockford Public School District 205 goals and identified areas of community need.

EARLY CHILDHOOD AND ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS

High Schools

Goal

Increase the district graduation rate and freshman on-track rate to 75% by 2024. 

Our Work

Alignment Rockford led the way in launching and developing the College and Career Pathways program that is now a core curricular component of every RPS 205 high school student’s academic experience. The Pathways program prepares high school students for post-graduate success in academics or career-oriented fields.
