I have some amazing news. RVEF's anonymous benefactor was happy that we raised $3765 on GivingTuesday, but has confidence that we can do so much more. They not only have extended the match date to 12/31/20 but have also increased the amount to $10,000!
In response to this challenge, RVEF has created a Season of Giving campaign. Please help support our Rincon Valley Education Foundation. https://www.paypal.com/fundraiser/charity/2201129
Rincon Valley Education Foundation (RVEF) is offering 3-day classes the weeks of Dec. 21 and Dec. 28 during Winter Break. We have many of our favorite instructors - including some of our very own RVUSD teachers offering a class!
- cooking
- making Star Wars creations
- traveling to Hogwarts for some fun
- trying to escape from the Titanic
- exploring Winter science,
- make some incredible art.
See flyers attached below.

We are excited to announce the new name recommendation for the SC/MTZ campus. We will recommend this name to the Board of Education on Dec.15th. The members of the School Site Council looked at the data carefully. It was determined that the name Manzanita had the most interest.
Manzanita Elementary Charter School for the 2021-22 school year
Manzanita trees are native to California and are abundant throughout our local parks. The Manzanita tree and bushes are used for medicinal purposes. The berries and flowers that grow on the plant are edible. A literal Spanish translation is little apple. An apple is symbolic of education.
Once the Board of Education approves a name, our next steps will be determined and communicated with you. Students will be helping in the naming of our mascot sometime after winter break.

Los miembros del Consejo del Plantel Escolar examinaron los datos cuidadosamente. Se determinó que el nombre Manzanita tenía más interés. Escuela primaria autónoma Manzanita para el año escolar 2021-22 Los árboles de manzanita son nativos de California y abundan en nuestros parques locales. El árbol y los arbustos de Manzanita se utilizan con fines medicinales. Las bayas y flores que crecen en la planta son comestibles. Una traducción literal al español es manzana pequeña. Una manzana es un símbolo de educación. Una vez que la Mesa Directiva de Educación apruebe un nombre, nuestros próximos pasos serán determinados y comunicados con usted. Los estudiantes ayudarán a nombrar nuestra mascota en algún momento después de las vacaciones de invierno.
