Leadership in early college programs

In 2009 Roscoe Collegiate High School received the Texas Education Agency's Early College High School designation, making it the only rural school in Texas to be designated as such. Beginning with an associates degree program assisted with revenue from wind energy, RCISD developed a P-20 program (preschool to PhD)[2] capability in cooperation with colleges and universities in the area, notably Western Texas College in Snyder and Texas State Technical College between Roscoe and Sweetwater, and additional partnerships with Texas A&M AgriLife Extension, 4H, and the Texas Tech T-STEM Center.

In 2009, the school district was rated "recognized" by the Texas Education Agency.[3]
