MIND-FIT EDUCATION FOR THE 21ST CENTURY
The initiative for El Rio Schools comes from a group of educators, parents and community members who love Los Angeles and who are fervent about public education.
Imagine a learning community where …
- teaching is a play-relationship between the subject and the learner
- learning is a play-informed discovery of immersive activities
- autonomy and flexibility of scheduling, curriculum, and instructional approaches merge to feed a students’ natural thirst for knowledge, safety, belonging, connection, creativity, and personal-best achievement
El Rio Schools can be a reality. Please continue to visit this page for updates, join the mailing list, find parenting support, workshops, books and more on our facebook page, come to monthly play groups and quarterly public meetings in Northeast Los Angeles.

The El Rio Schools public meetings happen thanks to the generosity of the Audubon Center at Debs Park
