Richland is a serious answer to prayer. The whole environment is dynamic and caring. We came from a…read morewell-known charter school where my daughter was bullied and the admin did nothing. Here, I feel like my daughter has plenty of caring adults keeping her safe and loved. I've been really amazed by the culture of care starting with the front admin, Ms. Chelsea who makes every single visitor feel welcome and seen. I've watched her navigate 6 different tasks simultaneously with poise, care, and professionalism. My only feedback to make this school shine brighter better would be to have more playground supervisors during recess and lunch and to get rid of the spinning "tree" that has broken multiple kids' arms.

I loved my experience as interpreter there. Everyone so welcoming and happy! I learned today what is a 'magnet school' where they teach this type of curriculum and also you get to attend if the family wins the school lotto (so families are not attached to the zip code they live in).

The school culture has suffered. The kids still get more art here than at most public schools, but it's around the same amount of arts one should expect at a well funded public school (which are sadly few and far between these days) and the arts rotate rather than having every art every week. Still a great school, and they have continued to prioritize the IB Program, so their curriculum is rock solid. The teachers are excellent and the admin is accessible, the campus is spacious and cheerful, and everyone is doing their best. I hope the district realizes that funding the arts is an important priority, for myriad reasons. Every kid needs to have fluency and experience with the arts, just as they do with math and reading; I wish our education funding reflected that. Bottom line, still a great school; I'm still happy to be a part of it - it's not perfect, but it's still the best school in town for sure, and a unique and excellent mix of the arts and IB.

Snitches get stitches and other fine things your kids will learn at Rincon…read more Unlike North Broadway elementary school ( a mile down the road), this is not one of the better schools in Escondido. Expect bullying and intimadation from day one. While there's a bullying hotline (the problem is so rampant they had to create a hotline), you'll soon find that for every bully you call about, there will be 2 more to replace them. Teachers are fine, basically earning a paycheck to whatever minimum level the state requires. This is California, which academically isn't saying much. Principals were fine and did seem to care, especially with all of the "noise" that goes on here. Ultimately, I had to pull one of my kids out of Rincon and put them in a charter school. I highly recommend to all parents that if they have kids going into middle school in upper Escondido, they should get on a charter school waiting list as soon as possible. - Interesting to note that million dollar homes surround this school. However, through district incompetence, far away elementary schools are fed into Rincon. This impacts traffic, and those kids who have to walk to/from school have to go extra far, we're talking several mile long walks. - Look up Rincon Middle School bullying / drugs / fights on google.. this is NOT a safe school. - RIncon is a bad middle school sandwiched between several good schools (both elementary schools, Escondido High School, and Calvin Christian private school).
