We provide pathways to success through the development, application, and management of services – primarily (BASP) before and after school programs – to children from all walks of life.
At Rio Grande Educational Collaborative (RGEC), we provide high-quality before and after school programs in New Mexico to help children succeed. Our programs focus on extended learning, offering daily homework support and enrichment activities that go beyond traditional education.
Our before and after school programs in New Mexico are conveniently located at your child’s school. This allows parents to stay connected with school staff while ensuring their child gets the support they need. We collaborate with principals to understand academic strengths and challenges, tailoring our programs to enhance subjects like science, math, geography, literacy, and the arts. We also restore programs that may have been reduced due to funding, including music, fine arts, performing arts, and sports.
After school, students enjoy a snack or light meal before diving into structured activities. Our program is divided into two key parts: homework help and enrichment time. During homework time, students work independently or with guidance from educators, ensuring they complete assignments before heading home. This reduces stress for families and allows more quality time in the evening.
Enrichment time brings hands-on learning to life. Students join small groups for interactive lessons that reinforce core subjects while introducing exciting new topics like entrepreneurship, nutrition, and physical wellness. Our “disguised learning” approach keeps students engaged with structured, fun activities that make learning enjoyable.
All activities are led by trained instructors, many of whom are teachers and educational assistants. Our staff are CPR and First Aid certified and must pass an ECECD background check. RGEC programs are licensed by the New Mexico Early Childhood Education & Care Department, ensuring a safe and high-quality learning environment.
At RGEC, our before and after school programs in New Mexico offer a nurturing space where kids feel supported, inspired, and motivated—an extension of their own family.
