Information for School Staff & Community Members
ETS-Siskiyou is committed to helping students achieve educational and personal success. Learn how schools play a vital role in helping ETS-Siskiyou reach these goals.
Forming Partnerships
University and school partnerships take time and commitment to ensure students are obtaining the necessary resources for a successful educational experience. The UC Davis Educational Talent Search, Siskiyou (ETS-Siskiyou) program’s staff serves as a bridge to assist students, their families, and ETS schools by visiting the school site on a weekly basis. For instance, ETS-Siskiyou advisors visit a school on a specific day and provide workshops for ETS students as well as provide individual personal and academic assessments. This weekly collaboration allows students to receive a structured educational curriculum.
ETS-Siskiyou advisors attend yearly conferences to obtain updates on college requirements, financial aid guidelines, and college entrance exams. The information obtained at these conferences helps ETS-Siskiyou participants receive information about study skills, motivation and values clarification. Each student’s transcript is reviewed so that students see their progress and areas needing improvement. ETS-Siskiyou staff can provide undergraduate admission presentations for the entire senior class and other workshops that may pertain to seniors.
Program Expectation
ETS-Siskiyou participants will be held accountable to succeed in school and in class. All students must have a GPA above a 2.0 and have an average attendance record at school and at ETS sessions. Moreover, they are expected to attend at least one workshop per month. The ETS-Siskiyou program at UC Davis is committed to helping empower students with knowledge and personal strength for them to fulfill their goals.
School Support
Since ETS-Siskiyou staff visit schools weekly, the schools assure general support through the counseling and administration offices, provide a classroom for workshops and access to class schedules and transcripts. This support guarantees success for students and their families.
