Welcome families and friends of el Rio Charter School.

Our vision is to found a Kindergarten through 8th grade public charter school, opening in 2012, which brings the advantages of a Waldorf style education to Northeast Los Angeles.

We are calling for participants willing to strategize, collaborate and give skills and time to help us
make it happen.

Friend of el Rio Ilsa Setziol blogs about urban nature

Posted: September 28th, 2009 | Author: Jennifer Patton | Filed under: Friends of el Rio | No Comments »

For a break from talk of charter schools and public education, here’s an article on the largest animal ever–right off the So Cal coast by friend of el Rio, Ilsa Setziol. This is her first installment in her new web column on urban nature at Emily Green’s blog Chance of Rain. Git it!

Conscious, individual expression and personal initiative for the good is a universal value of Waldorf education worldwide. The opinions expressed by the el Rio Charter School founders and school blog authors are ours alone as individuals.

Collectively, we hold to Waldorf's shared human values of (1) the gift of attentiveness (2) the power of initiative, (3) the count-to-ten pause for objectivity, (4) the joy of positivity, (5) the curiosity of openness, and (6) "being the change you wish to see in the world."

We hold the same standard for comments on our blog posts and look forward to your thoughts and conversation starters!
