Projects coordinated by RIROE:

Student Art Appreciation - RIROE promotes the importance of the Arts throughout the year by offering its gallery and glass showcase for displaying Rock Island County students/ artwork. An Open House event is also held to provide family and friends the opportunity to view the artwork, give special recognition of the students' talents, and inspire them towards an increased appreciation of their artistic endeavors.

Developmental Education - Educators today are faced with the challenging task of helping students acquire new skills and knowledge while also developing decision making and problem solving abilities which enable them to be increasingly independent, responsible and prepared for career decisions.

To help students grow more independent and responsible, the developmental guidance philosophy and model were created. The Developmental Guidance Model is a program that is proactive and preventive. It includes a life skills curriculum aimed at helping students develop skills in decision making, coping, setting goals, maintaining satisfying relationships and assuming personal responsibility for their lives. Its goal is to enable all students to realize their full potential in their chosen careers. Learn more about Development Education !
