The BESA Academy

The Bilingual Science and Environmental Academy (BESA) is a non-profit, bilingual and environmental science preschool offering care and high-quality education to infants, toddlers, preschoolers and school-age children in Norwalk, California. BESA challenges the status quo of the traditional childcare system by providing holistic early education for ALL! 

BESA has adopted many of RIDE's unique programs and tools to ensure that their students' development and needs are supported across school, sports, and social environments. BESA parents can also be connected with RIDE for advocacy services if their children have (or if they suspect their children have) developmental disabilities and/or learning differences. Through a collaborative effort with our team at BESA, RIDE has developed an innovative curriculum which will provide our students with access to classrom experiences that are meaningful and challenging, while cultivating their ability to recognize, express, and regulate their social-emotional skills.
