Rancho Cucamonga Student Center offers dynamic programs for TK-8 students. The center includes our Discovery Col-LAB-orative Program. Starting the 2024-2025 school year, the Discovery Col-LAB-orative program will be moving to a seat-based model with a focus on STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, Mathematics). Our vision is to provide a comprehensive education that integrates these disciplines into a cohesive learning paradigm based on real-world applications.

This approach is designed to foster innovation, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills among students from transitional kindergarten through eighth grade. Our mission is to inspire and prepare students to become leaders in an increasingly complex and technology-driven world through a STEAM-focused approach that encourages creativity, collaboration, and critical thinking, while also embracing a personalized learning approach that caters to the unique needs and abilities of each student.

Age: 17 Grade: 12
I chose: Rancho Cucamonga
Why? To enjoy the interaction with my teacher and other students while being Homeschooled.
Isabella says: “Ms. Ryder is a really funny teacher, I like when she explains stuff. She breaks it down into real life situations that make it easy to understand.”
Isabella is studying Japanese so that when she visits her host family in Japan she’ll be able to communicate with them and others. Her advice to new students is to explore their interests, find what makes them happy and pursue it, always set aside time to do the things you love and, you’re only young once so enjoy it to the best of your ability!
