Rio Rosales School

I have all of my three children enrolled at Rio Rosales and they all like the school and their teachers. All the teachers and staff have been great and the principal, Mr. Howatt, is always willing to help the children, very involved.

My child went there from k-4 we went through 4 principals and 3/6 teachers ( I had my child's teacher changed one year.) my child had actually taught my child, third grade teacher raised my child's reading from 1st grade level to 3.

My son's teacher is fantastic! I think she's definitely a teacher for a reason! Before kindergarten, I spent countless days trying to teach my son how to read and write. However, after my son has started this school, he has started reading items when we are out! He has also started reading entire short stories, and comes home with the cutest class projects! I love how Rio Rosales makes school fun, and allows parents to become involved, not only at home, but inviting us to school for different activities such as lunch on the lawn. Simply getting a chance to come to school on a scheduled day and reading to my son and a few of his friends really makes his and my day.

My son is a Kindergartner at and I could not be happier. I was a bit on the fence when the school year started just because it was such a new school compared to all the other schools in the area, but all of the fears that I was having are completely gone. My son has an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) and the staff that works with him has gone above and beyond to make sure that he has everything he needs. My son is doing so well at school that I never have a reason to drop in and check on things. Anytime I have asked for a meeting or needed to talk to someone about my son's education and learning plans my requests have been answered and within a matter of days I have an appointment. The resource teacher, occupational therapist, and speech therapist have worked wonders with my son (who I thought I would have to home school because of his learning issues). They are AMAZING!! My son currently has Mrs. Neary as his Kindergarten teacher and she has found ways to get him to participate in class and with other students without making him feel like he wants to shut down and hide. My son also loves the Principal Dr. K and enjoys seeing him everyday even if it is just to say Hi.
