It is particularly known for its bare - bones curricular focus on standardized test scores in reading and math, its use of computer - based «learning labs» that cut down costs, and its promotion of the Rocketship brand — including a daily pep rally where students chant that they are «
Rocketship Rocketeers.»
In conjunction with its largely - vulnerable student body,
Rocketship shows great interest in its low attrition rates; last year, 90 % of
Rocketeers chose to stay with
Rocketship despite each having a district spot available to them.
