Our Story

The Rio Hondo Education Consortium, DBA LEARN, is an Educational Agency founded in 2004 to initially serve four districts and six schools through a federal Department of Education grant. Since that time, LEARN’s focus has grown to currently include districts in Whittier, El Monte, Rosemead, pico Rivera, and Pomona in both K-8 and high schools through various grants. 

Our focus is to provide resources for underserved students and families to better navigate their educational journey and develop better post-secondary options by adhering to our Core Values. Our LEARN programs provide students with before school, in-class and after school enrichment Opportunities, Free Organized Youth Sports Leagues, Student Support Services, and college and career readiness.
