I was a first grade teacher for 4 years there starting in 1998. (quit because I wanted to be a stay at home mom. It is an awesome and unique school with teachers and administrators who are professional and caring about their students. I loved all my four years at Rio. The quality of academia is excellent coupled with staff members that care.
