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.

Betty Staley’s article, To Educate Future Change Agents, Change Education Today, was selected among its best articles over the last five years by the Green Money Journal.

Betty has been a strong voice advocating for public Waldorf education since way before it was cool

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!
