I love it! Im so glad my son will be graduating from Rio Mesa he had had s great experience

The principal here Pimentel likes to harass and violate kids rights. She will search your kids with out parent authority and will harass kids don't bring your kids here she is very unprofessional and lacks integrity

My son is now in 1st grade. He had Ms. Francis for kindergarten and she was awesome. I hope my younger son gets her when he’s 5 in a couple years. First grade has just started and he has two teachers. Ms Vico and Mrs Steiner. He just started, but he seems to really love them as well. The teachers, principal and counselors all seem to be focused in creating a fun, safe and engaging school environment at Rio Rosales. My son also attended a summer program sponsored by the Boys and Girls club this past summer and he also thoroughly enjoyed that as well. Great stuff and lots of fun for kids with high energy. Such a great way for the kids to get to know each other better and have a safe place to play and have fun. I’m honestly surprised that the test scores aren’t higher than they are at this school, but learning is equal part classroom learning and at home parenting. After watching Ms Francis teach on the computer for the better part of last year due to covid, I can surely attest she’s a phenomenal teacher w/ an amazing attitude and just an all around amazing teacher. She makes learning fun, has amazing patience and great at controlling chaos that come with a roomful of kindergarteners. I feel schools and their leaders make or break a community and Rio Rosales is definitely a shining star and cornerstone piece to the East Village neighborhood. I hope the new High School they are building next to it will promote the same culture and environment for our youth and future leaders. I give the culture, caring, engagement and fun learning environment of Rio Rosales Elementary an A+.
