Open Quote My son has been at RGE since 2016-17 when we moved down from the North Tahoe area. It was the best move of our lives! Not only is the neighborhood great, but the school is too! The teachers and staff are some of the most attentive and caring I’ve ever witnessed...and I went to a lot of schools growing up. Unlike most, the teachers here seem like they WANT to be here and actually enjoy their work. The parents are very involved as well. We work very hard at fundraising so the kids can have PE classes, musical and art classes and teachers aids where needed. I mean, I saw kid carry out a cello bigger then her! Another added benefit, I think, is the later start then most schools. They start at 9:30 and end at 3:30! I honestly saw an overall difference in my son’s behavior and performance with this change. Like many teachers who were once students here, I have a feeling we will be here a long time. Close Quote
