Rigoberto Beas
5th Grade Teacher
It is an honor to serve as a 5th-grade teacher at IEmpire Academy! I graduated with my Associate’s degree from Crafton Hills College, earned my Bachelor’s degree from Cal State San Bernardino, and completed my Master’s in Education at Redlands University. This is my second year in the classroom, following a rewarding year as a resident teacher. Teaching is not just a career for me—it is a passion, and I feel truly blessed to work with the incredible students of San Bernardino.
Outside of the classroom, I enjoy spending quality time with my fiancée and our son, who bring joy and balance to my life. I am also passionate about health and fitness, spending time at the gym, and playing and coaching soccer, a sport I love deeply. These activities keep me energized and focused.
At IEmpire Academy, I am inspired daily by the resilience and potential of our students. I strive to create a classroom environment where each child feels seen, supported, and empowered to reach their fullest potential. I admire the dedication of my colleagues and the mission of our school, and I am committed to fostering a culture of growth and success for our students. Together, we can achieve amazing things!
