Teacher Spotlight: Rocky Kim and Benicia High School 

Rocky Kim has taught at Benicia High School for six years and currently serves as a Computer Sciences and Digital Media Career and Technical Education teacher.

 

A Career Choices Gold Medal program four years running, Kim says that “Students know that the purpose of the 10-year plan is not to have everything figured out in 9th grade, but to revise their ever-changing life plan as they continue to mature using the skills gained from the program.”

Since 2018, Benicia High School has placed in the top 20% of all schools in California for overall test scores and in the top 5% of all schools in California for graduation rate according to US News and World Report. 

Rocky, thank you for all you do and the impact you have on students’ lives!
