Rio del Sol is a family of highly qualified, dedicated faculty and staff; students and their families; and community-based partners who are passionate about the power of empathy and creativity through transdisciplinary learning.

We educate the whole child by asking them what problems they want to solve right now. Learning Guides and students co-develop, co-design and passionately pursue inquiry-centered, over-arching guiding questions that guide short and long-term investigations. We breathe life into Rio School District's 5 C's (Caring, Communicating, Collaborating, Creating and Critically Thinking) by harnessing the Common Core State and Next Generation Science Standards into a customizable and fluid curricular approach enacted by students and Learning Guides.
