Students had a blast harvesting lettuce in the garden Rio Real! Child Nutrition welcomed the bounty into their kitchen. Love the teamwork! Looking forward to enjoying the harvest at lunch on Friday!

Hard work & team work paid off at MESA Day 2022. Proud teacher moment. UCSB OEP Rio Real @riosupt

Having created interest-based grps from questions (re Chumash - Past & Present), chosen grps to join, 3rd gr Ss, w/Jacqueline Leal, met in grps to begin building community - sharing their interests & why they chose particular areas. I'm always amazed & in awe! @rioibid @riosupt

Mrs Ferrer & Yr5 Ss tried 'thinking outside the box' (Eng dicho) today w/ 'how many ways you can use a paperclip' activity - building on concepts of form/function (& then breaking out of box on that). Bringing multiple voices together. ❤ where they went w/ it. @rioibid @riosupt

Winter arrives at Rio Real! When you can't take the entire K and 1st gr to the mountain, you bring the mountain to them! Rio Real @riosupt #rioschools

Learning about plant parts!!! My students love to explore our garden ,Rio Real

Today was filled with smiles and wide eyes from Mstra Vasquez’s kinders at Rio Real as we hunted for plant parts & dissected flowers in class. I’m so happy with how the Find It, Stick It activity turned out! Kinder Science 4 the win!! #rioschools @riosupt Oscar Hernandez

Epic collaboration with seniors from ACE Charter H.S., working with compost tea & identifying native plants! #compostteaparty Rio Real @APdeRioReal

As educators we have a RESPONSIBILITY to grow and move beyond nostalgia to be relevant for a generation that is after us.

Our students need more recess, unstructured play, Physical Education, all the Arts, and extracurricular activities! That's how we make their social/emotional health a priority.

This is so true! 🧡

If you see someone falling behind, walk beside them. If you see someone being ignored, find a way to include them. If someone has been knocked down, lift them up. Always remind people of their worth. One small act could mean the world to them.
