Paige Caldwell
Social Studies


I enjoyed my childhood amidst the groves of Redlands and spent my teenage years picking oranges off the trees across from my own high school, Redlands East Valley.  As a daughter of a music teacher and a musical instrument repairman, I was expected to participate in music from a young age. Since the age of five, I have played music on a variety of instruments from the piano to the trombone to the bass. In 2005 I began my career as a professional jazz musician, and for five years, I had the opportunity to travel all over Southern California performing the music I love.  In high school, I was highly involved with marching band. Throughout all of this musical chaos, I still found time to play softball for twelve years, standing behind the plate as catcher from Little League to high school Varsity and well into my college years. After graduating high school in 2009, I attended University of California, Irvine where I received my Bachelor of Arts in History, with an emphasis in European history, alongside a minor in Education. I realized that teaching was my true calling after a variety of jobs failed to ignite the same passion as being an educator. In 2014, I came back to the Inland Empire to receive my teaching credential in Social Science from California State University, San Bernardino.

So, why history?  In high school, I had a history teacher that encouraged me to look past the facts, and to see history for what it really is: access to the human experience. I have always been happiest when around people, and as overwhelming as human beings can be at times, we are fascinating creatures that can produce the most beautiful creations imaginable. When I went to college, I knew I wanted to build upon this idea. I have never looked back since.  Well, except when literally looking back, in the study of history

My decision to become a teacher, aside from the fact that I absolute love to teach, comes from my deep-set interest in making our communities and our society a better place. I believe that any and all forms of education are how we critically evaluate all that surrounds us, and through this, we better ourselves as individuals and thus our surroundings. Education is how we become the best versions of ourselves, and I want to provide as many resources for success as possible to the students of this community, state, and nation.

I cannot express in words my excitement to join the RMHS family this upcoming year, so I will end with this: as awesome as the past is, the future could not be more exciting.

Mario Castillo
Social Studies

Mario Castillo is proud to become one of the newest members of Rancho Mirage High School’s teaching staff.  Mr. Castillo was born and raised in the Coachella Valley, and is a graduate of Coachella Valley High School.  He continued his education at the University of California, Irvine, Chapman University, and the California State University, San Bernardino. 

Mr. Castillo has taught for sixteen years and coached for fifteen.  He has taught in the Coachella Valley Unified School District (Mecca Middle School & Coachella Valley High School), and the Desert Sands Unified School District (Palm Desert High School).  Mr. Castillo has experience teaching at the College Preparatory, Honors and Advanced Placement levels a variety of courses, including American History, World History, Economics, Sociology, European History, Mexican-American Studies and A.V.I.D.  Courses. 

Mr. Castillo has also been a football, baseball and track & field coach during his fifteen years of coaching.  Mr. Castillo has served as an assistant coach for Rancho Mirage’s football and track & field teams since their inaugural seasons most recently.  

Mr. Castillo’s mission as an educator is to guide and mentor students to seek out what their passion is in life, find out what compels them to learn more, and discover what makes them eternally curious ?  His passion is seeing his students rejoice when they realize they are unique and have so much to offer the world.  Whether he can achieve this as a teacher, as a coach or as an advisor is inconsequential.  What is important is that the spark is lit.

Rachel Green
English

Hello all! My name is Rachel Green (like from the hit 90’s sitcom, “Friends”) and I am so excited to be joining the wonderful team at RMHS! Growing up having both parents as educators has definitely proved to be a positive influence in my choosing to pursue a career in education. I have always loved teaching and learning, as well as reading and writing. My mother always tells stories at family gatherings about how I always had my nose in a book growing up! This summer, I traveled to Boston, and went on a literary book tour with my family. I had the amazing experience of visiting and touring the homes of American authors such as Nathaniel Hawthorne, Louise May Alcott, Ralph Waldo Emerson, and Henry David Thoreau.  

I grew up in Murrieta Valley where I was on the dance team and captain of the dance team at Murrieta Valley High School. After high school, I attended Cal State San Marcos where I received my BA in Literature and Writing with a focus in Literature. I then continued straight into the Single Subject teaching credential program at CSUSM where I obtained my teaching credential in English. I loved living in North County, San Diego for the past 6 years, but I am so excited to start a new chapter and share my love for English with my students in the Desert! 

In my free time, I enjoy music festivals, traveling, and spending time with my loved ones. I absolutely love snowboarding, skateboarding, reading (of course), creative writing, and coffee. Once again, I am so ecstatic to be a part of the family at RMHS and to meet my students! Go Rattlers!

Rosie VandenBrook
Counselor

Hello, my name is Rosie VandenBrook and I am very excited to join the RMHS team.  I was born in Cleveland, Ohio, but grew up in North Orange County, where I lived for 35 years.  I graduated from Troy High School, in Fullerton, and then attended California State University, Fullerton, where I earned a BA in Psychology, an MS in Counseling, with a School Counseling Credential in 1995.  I attained a License for Marriage & Family Therapy in 2003, and ran successful part-time practices in both Northern and Southern CA.  I began my career as a High School Counselor 20 years ago in Corona-Norco USD, went to the San Jose area for a few years, and then to the high desert where I was the Alternative Education Counselor for the Snowline School District.  In 2008, we moved to Conroe, Texas, where I have implemented a successful program for at-risk students through the last 7 years.  I am very lucky to have been able to work in a variety of settings, and each one has shaped me into the counselor that I am today.  I am married to my husband of 13 years, and our kids are three rescue labs—one black, one chocolate, and one yellow.  Recreationally, we enjoy boating, fishing, riding ATVs, camping, the beach, and spending time with family and friends.  I believe in focusing on the positives and encouraging students to push through challenges and to reach their goals personally, educationally, and professionally.  I look forward to serving the students and families at Rancho Mirage High School and hope the experience will make a difference in the lives of the people I work with.

Athena Martinez
English


I am extremely proud to be a new member of the English department at Rancho Mirage High School. Although I am new to RMHS, I am not new to teaching. This will be my 15th year teaching and my fourth school. For the past eight years, I taught at Quinta High School, and before that, I taught at two different schools in Los Angeles.

I grew up right here in the Coachella Valley. After graduating from Palm Desert High School, I attended the University of California at Santa Barbara (UCSB). At Santa Barbara, I earned a degree in English and a degree in Media Communications. The day I graduated, I moved to Los Angeles and enrolled in the teacher education program at California State University Northridge. I graduated from CSUN with a Master’s Degree in English Education.

I have always wanted to become a teacher. In fact, I started teaching full time the month I turned 22 and I have never looked back. Working with students to improve their communication skills and to empower them as individuals is something I truly enjoy. My goal for this year is to help every student develop the skills they will need to be successful in school, in college, and in their future professions.

Julia Nguyen
Science

It is important for me to say that I am so excited!  That is excited to be one of the incoming teachers at Rancho Mirage High School.  My assignment is to teach chemistry and participate on the “Café Team” for Culinary Arts.

 As a kid I lived during the winter time in Chicago, Illinois and southern Missouri on a lake for the summers.  These days I can be found in the garden or reading about almost any topic in my off hours.  Formally I am trained as a Chemist, Bachelors of Science, Cal Poly Pomona, CA and Respiratory Therapist, Associates of Arts, Independence University, Salt Lake City, Utah.  To the classroom I bring 20+ years of experience from many different career fields: destructive electronic parts testing and data analyst- ICS Radiation, research-Sunkist growers, inorganic chemistry lab tech -Metropolitan Water District, chemistry stockroom manager/lab tech – Mt. SAC College, assistant manager of technology- U.S. Department of Commerce, substitute teacher for private schools, Ontario Montclair and Corona Norco School Districts and respiratory therapist, Dignity Hospital. Also peppered in the years are an array of other educational management and consulting experiences. 

The spark for wanting to be a teacher started when I was working at Mt. SAC College.  Working with an amazing group of teachers inspired me to become a teacher. The department encouraged me to develop a chemistry club. This gave me great meaning and purpose.  I shortly moved to acquire my teaching credential.  Teaching and being a mentor to others has truly been threaded throughout many of my professional career positions.

As I move forward in becoming a full-time teacher at Rancho Mirage High School I look forward to working with each and every student in preparing them to be college and career ready.  The Science Department offers a wonderful team of highly qualified teachers and I am honored to be a part of that team.  Together will learn, teach and grow in the chemistry knowledge. 


Greg Sutherland
Science

I grew up in northern California, in a small town of about 400 people. I grew up on 5 acres (the smallest parcel of land allowed in rural areas of the county). The school district was quite geographically large, but my graduating class was less than 100. I knew all of my classmates by name, and many of the kids who were not in my graduating class as well. It was a great place to live, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Near the end of my senior year I decided that of the subjects I took in High School the thing I most enjoyed was the word problems in my calculus class. It was fun to take the calculus we had learned to a real world problem. I found the challenge of coming up with equations from scratch, to be exciting. This meant that I would probably enjoy Physics. I decided from then on that Physics would be my major. 

While taking physics courses my focus shifted away from enjoying the mathematical challenges to enjoying learning the concepts. I was constantly learning new things. I loved how physics explained things that I could see all around me. Many things in physics are astounding and mind blowing. 

I love physics. I love to teach. I love to share my excitement for physics. I love that moment when my students finally get it and it clicks. I love to tell or show people things that blow their minds. I strive to be the kind of person that can help people, that can show people that they can achieve their goals, that they are valuable. What better than for me to be a Physics Teacher.

When I’m not doing physics I enjoy spending time with my wife and son. I also like camping, fishing, gardening, cooking, and video games.

Jamie Svetich
Science

Bok, ja sam Miss Svetich, drago mi je što smo se upoznali! Ahem, hello! My name is Miss Svetich, and its very nice to meet you! I will be teaching two sections of honors physics and three sections of chemistry this year.

This is my first year teaching in a high school, but I have taught university physics labs for the past 3 years. I was President of my physics club and Vice President of an astronomy club I helped start at Illinois State University. I graduated May of 2015 and moved to California from Champaign, IL. 

I was also heavily involved with nonlinear dynamics research, which is a branch of physics that focuses on the effect of minute changes in initial conditions of a system. The system I studied focused on charged particles interacting with Earth's magnetosphere at a certain disturbed point called the X-line. 

When not at school I enjoy the company of my loving boyfriend and two pets Lrrr (tortoise) and Lumiere (ball python). I love to be outside and stare up at the night sky, yet a night inside playing video games is also time well spent. I’m looking forward to having a great first year in the desert with you guys!

David Holland
Auto


My name is David Holland. I am very proud and excited to be a part of RMHS. I was born a military brat at Fort Smith Arkansas in 1961. My dad was in the Army and met my mother in Luxembourg. I lived there until I moved to Memphis TN when I was 13 years old.

My favorite subject in High School was Auto Shop. I would never have survived High School without being able to spend 3 hours every school day in the shop. It was my only reason for going to school. I’ve had a passion for cars since I was in High School. I spent many weekends at drag races and tinkering with race engines looking for that one little “tweak” to make them go just a little faster. I’ve even served as crew chief on a Drag Race team that raced a 68 Chevy Camaro. 

I graduated from High School and joined the Marine Corps. It was a challenge and an adventure that I loved and will always cherish (being a Marine is truly forever). My last name earned me the nickname “Dutch” in the Corps. After 6 years I left the Marine Corps for an opportunity to become a Deputy Sheriff. After ten years working in Law Enforcement I decided I wanted to give college a try. I graduated from the University of Memphis with a BFA in Art History.  

A friend of mine was the Principal at the High School I graduated from and he asked me if I would be interested in giving teaching a try.  I discovered I loved giving students the same joy (and opportunities) I had experienced in auto shop every day when I was their age.  I began teaching Auto Shop in Pasadena (after I met my wife Christina and moved to California), transferred to San Diego for one year and then spent the last eight years teaching in Compton.

I love seeing young faces light up when they learn something new, or discover they can do something they never thought possible. I believe that Auto Shop should be a fun experience and a new adventure every school day. I’m really looking forward to the 2015/16 school year and getting a brand new Auto Shop rolling.

Jeff Kabel
Work-Based Learning


My name is Jeff Kabel and I am honored to serve as the Work Based Learning Teacher (WBL) at Rancho Mirage High School.  I look forward to learning a great deal from the staff and students about the culture of this school and how I can best adapt to support the needs and mission of RMHS.  

A native of Riverside, California,  I am married (Terri) with two sons, Matthew and Benjamin.  I bring 13 years of experience to the classroom.  I leave Desert Hot Springs High School after 12 years of teaching Civics, Economics, AP Government, Honors Economics, and World History.  I spent my first year of teaching at Cathedral City High School where I taught Special Day science classes.

I earned a Master of Science degree in Human Resources at Chapman University in 2001 and earned a Bachelor of Arts in Communication (Professional Writing) at California State University, San Bernardino in 1991.  I received my teaching credential from CSUSB in 2004.

Before entering the field of education, I dabbled in other occupational realms.  I worked as a news director, writer, and business reporter for the Inland Empire TV News in Rancho Cucamonga, CA (1996-1998). In 1994, I served as a sports reporter for the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin newspaper and a staff writer for the Norco Pony Express weekly newspaper in 1993.

In coming to RMHS, I am eager to implement some of the topics we have covered in my economics classes at DHSHS including writing resumes and  cover letters,interviewing techniques,and workplace ethics and etiquette.  Mostly,though,I am here to learn how I can best serve the interests of our scholars and the business community in creating a mutually beneficial partnership for both student and employer.

On the personal side, I enjoy many hobbies,including cooking, hiking, playing sports with my sons, and reading political non-fiction.  My late father,Jack Kabel, served as a teacher and a principal, and it is my hope that I can continue to follow the example he set as a teacher with patience, kindness, and respect.

Hello Rattlers! My name is Alex Monson and I'm excited to be a part of the amazing RMHS staff this year! This will be my third year teaching and my first year teaching high school. I attended college in Idaho and graduated with my BA, majoring in English Education and minoring in Art Education. The past two years, I taught 6th and 7th grade English, 6th grade Dance, and after-school Zumba at a middle school in southeast Idaho. Even though life in the desert has been scorching hot so far, I'm more than willing to take the heat over freezing winters! I went to high school in Murrieta and grew up in southern California. I absolutely love this state! In my free time, I enjoy spending time with friends and family, watching movies, swimming, reading short stories, and exploring new places. My husband is from Huntington Beach so whenever we visit his family, we love going to the beach and body boarding! I love snorkeling and anything ocean-related. My all-time favorite thing to do is travel. I've been lucky enough to visit different countries around the world and have yet to see a place I dislike! I especially like anywhere with a tropical beach (who doesn't?)! 

I can't wait to meet all my new students and make this a fantastic year!

Beth Brian
Art


Hello Rattlers! 

My name is Ms. Beth Brian and I have the pleasure of being one-half of the brand new Visual Arts team at Rancho Mirage High School.  In my class, we will be exploring the Elements of Art and the Principals of Design and producing creative art projects. 

I have had an amazing background.  I was born on March AFB and moved all over the United States as one of three daughters of an Air Force Staff Sergeant. When I was in junior high school (middle school to you), we moved back to California because my dad became the Education Officer at Norton AFB and I lived in a hundred year-old house in the middle of an orange grove.  When I was in High School I was all about the performing arts.  I was in Band, Orchestra, Drama, and sang in the Choir.  Don’t get me wrong, I took basic Art and Ceramics, but didn’t really gain enthusiasm for the visual arts until I went to San Diego State University. There I did everything . . . drawing, painting, ceramics, metal work (yes welding), photography, jewelry, mosaics, and stained glass.  All things I still enjoy doing.  After graduating,

I started my own successful business and sold it before my daughter was born.  When she was in the third grade, I took a job at her school as the librarian and went back to school and got my teaching credential through Chapman University. I am very excited to join the outstanding staff and students here at RMHS.  I will be starting my 10th year in the district and my 19th year of teaching.  I was most recently at CCHS but have also taught at JWMS and DSMS.  I have the privilege of teaching Art 1 in the first year it will be offered and am looking forward to meeting you all and igniting your passion for the arts.  In my free time, I like to garden, cook, sing, binge watch shows on Netflix, and create stained glass and jewelry. Don’t hesitate to say “Hi” if you see me on campus.

My parents were doctors in the Navy so I moved a few times growing up. I spent most of my life in San Diego and love the beach, being outdoors, music, movies, and SCUBA.  I have taught biology, life science, and marine science previously in Escondido and most recently at James Workman!
     My husband is in the Army National Guard as an EOD tech (bomb disposal- yikes!).  We have lived all over the U.S. and are happy to be back in Southern California again.
     I have my masters degree in Educational a Technology and graduated in 2011 from California Polytechnic State University San Luis Obispo with a B.A. in Biological Sciences! Go Mustangs!
     I had always loved tutoring and teaching, but I had always imagined that I would end up teaching later in life, but why did I have to wait if I knew it was what I wanted to end up doing?  So I dove in with both feet and took teaching classes in addition to my biology classes.  It was during this time I earned grades that put me on the Dean's List -all while having the time of my life.  I am so excited to be here and to meet you all!

Mathematics

It is a privilege to be a part of the staff here Rancho Mirage High School. I was born and raised in the Coachella Valley, where I graduated from Coachella Valley High School. I earned a Bachelors of Arts in History with minors in Mathematics and Spanish from California State Polytechnic University Pomona. I furthered my education at California State Los Angeles to pursue a Masters of Education in Math and Science.  I had the honor to be apart of the Los Angeles Urban Teacher Residency program where I was given the opportunity to teach Algebra II at Abraham Lincoln High School in East Los Angeles. This experience was very rewarding and solidified my passion for teaching. I am excited and feel fortunate to return home and serve my community here in the Coachella Valley.   I look forward to sharing the passion I have for math with my students. As an educator, I want my students to fully grasp the concepts of mathematics along with the process and application.  I want my students to leave with the capability to justify their thinking process while also learning the significance of collaborating well with others. I want my students to understand that the right answer means nothing with out being able to interpret the process used to reach a solution. Outside of the classroom I enjoy going hiking, paddle boarding, and going to Disneyland.

Ms. Elias is new to the desert, but is a Southern California native. After pursuing degrees in English, she began substitute teaching in the San Bernardino school district for many years. Wanting to actually teach a class from start to finish prompted her to earn her teaching credential from the University of Redlands this past year.

Ms. Elias has taught at a variety of schools and in many different roles, but is looking forward to finding a "home" school where she can learn and grow. She enjoys reading, films, nature, Disneyland, and sleep.

My name is Mr. McCarthy.  Thirteen years ago, I moved here from Michigan.  I was a graduate of Western Michigan University with a major in History, a minor in Social Science and a Michigan teaching credential.  I was offered a job at Cathedral City High School in 2001.  I accepted and moved out to California in my tiny used Toyota and quickly fell in love with the Coachella Valley.  My time at CCHS was extremely rewarding.  I taught much of the curriculum, coached football, have served as an ASB class advisor and an advisor for several extracurricular clubs.  Last year, my lovely wife Heather McCarthy was hired as the librarian for Rancho Mirage High School.  She told me about how great the school was, and the positive and energetic staff who were working so hard and doing so much to make RMHS a great place to work and to learn.  I decided to transfer to RMHS last spring.  I am looking very forward to being a part of the “team” that will work hard to make Rancho Mirage High School a valued part of the community and a top tier educational institution.

Marshall Mallory
English

My name is Marshall Mallory. I am very excited to be a part of the Rancho Mirage High School Experience. I was born and raised in Richmond, Virginia. I graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Computers. I dabbled in many fields before finally deciding it was time to move away from my hometown. I enlisted in the Navy in 2003 and moved to San Diego. I served five years on board the U.S.S. Bonhomme Richard gaining the rank of Petty Officer 2nd Class. I traveled to many countries and enjoyed my experience, but in 2008 when my enlistment was up, I decided to change career paths. While staying in the Navy Reserves, where I have continued to serve for six more years, I went back to school to become a teacher. My dream was realized in 2011 when I graduated with a Master’s in Teaching and a credential in both Social Science and English. I taught my first year at Palm Desert High School teaching both CP and AP World History. I then moved to the California  Military Institute in Perris. I taught there for two years teaching AP European History, CP World History, English 10, Advanced English 10, and ROTC. Last year I also coached Boys Volleyball and began a Creative Writing Club at the school. In my spare time I enjoy collecting antiques, reading, movies, and participate in Civil War Reenactments throughout Southern California. I am looking forward to a great year with my new students. Let’s dive in and make 2014-2015 the best school year ever!

Work-Based Learning




         For seven years, Rose Gonzalez lovingly taught world history at CCHS and she is now the Work Based Learning teacher for RMHS. She previously taught for two California Partnership Academies (one of which became a Lighthouse Academy).  In that capacity, Ms. Gonzalez worked with teams of educators to coordinate and institute learning opportunities for academy students in their chosen career pathways.  These included college visits, job shadows, fieldwork experiences, student and parent orientations, and interdisciplinary projects, to name a few. She also participated in the Coachella Valley Economic Partnership's Summer Faculty Externship Program in order to learn more about the internship/externship experience and the labor needs of the Coachella Valley.  Apart from her academy involvement at CCHS, Ms. Gonzalez fed her love for technology when she participated in the 24/7 one-to-one laptop program using MacBooks and the BYOD pilot program using Chromebooks.  She also served as ASB Sophomore Class Advisor and served on the School Site Council.

Before becoming a teacher, Ms.Gonzalez served her community in other ways.  As an undergraduate in UCLA's College of Letters and Science Honors Program, Ms. Gonzalez spent much of her time volunteering for and helping to lead UCLA's Circle K International, a Kiwanis  community service organization.  She also participated in the UCLA Summer Labor Institute as part of her B.A. in Psychology with a Minor in Labor and Workplace Studies and Specialization in Organizational Behavior. Her coursework included an interdisciplinary approach to the various facets of the labor market both locally and globally.  Even more, Ms. Gonzalez worked for UCLA's Early Childhood Clubhouse administering social skills training to children with Autism.  She also helped coordinate a research project about the efficacy of social skills training for Russian orphan children with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome. All together, Ms. Gonzalez's education, training and experience have prepared her for her new and exciting role at RMHS.


Jennifer Donahue
Science

Hello Future Chemists!  I am excited to be joining the RMHS staff.  This will be my 12th year of teaching chemistry but I have also taught Algebra I, Algebra II, and Physics.  I earned my Bachelors from CSUSB in Chemistry and attended graduate school at Cal Poly Pomona with a major in Analytical Chemistry.  After college, my analytical experiences lead me to the pharmaceutical industry producing narcotics for medicinal purposes.  My background in both the public and private sector provide me with a different outlook on the scientific field and the various employment opportunities that are available for science minded students.  I have often been referred to as a “lab rat” (which I take as a compliment) because I always seem to be preparing a lab experiment or demonstration to illustrate the concepts of science. 

If I am not in the lab you can find me with my husband and two sons fishing, camping, or doing some kind of outdoor activity.  I am looking forward to providing an excellent education for RMHS students. 

P.S. Don’t forget to bring your goggles!

I originally grew up in LA and moved to Riverside my sophomore year of high school where I graduated from John W. North High School. I attended and graduated from UCR with a Bachelor’s Degree in Mathematics for Secondary School Teaching. I received my teaching credential as well as my Masters in Education in 2014 from UCR also. I am very excited to be part of Rancho Mirage High School and contribute to the startup of our reputation. My goal as an educator is to make students think critically and push themselves past their limits in mathematics and prove to themselves that they are capable of achieving any goal they have. I want students to see how math is a great foundational tool that is applied in other content areas and for them to be able to understand and not be afraid of math.

World Language


My name is Hector Lopez. I was born in Downey, but I spent the majority of my time growing up in Ontario, CA. As soon as I turned 17, I moved with my parents to Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico where all my classes were taught in my 2nd language of Spanish at the Universidad de Especialidades. Once I completed high school I moved to Riverside, CA where I worked my way through college, first attending Riverside Community College, then transferring to the University of California Riverside. I majored in Spanish Linguistics, and continued going to the same school to obtain my teaching credential. I worked for two years in Hesperia teaching Spanish 1-4 to high school students. I am looking forward to starting the school year at RMHS, and getting to know each of my students that enter my classroom to share my passion of the Spanish language and culture. My goal as a Spanish teacher is to create an environment where my students are immersed in using the target language of Spanish throughout the lesson. Outside of the classroom I enjoy spending time with my friends, playing retro video games, and serving at my church.

Jeff Glackler
Social Studies


I am tremendously excited and proud to be a member of the Rancho Mirage High School teaching staff for the upcoming 2014-15 school year.

I was born in Mankato, Minnesota, which is located about an hour south of Minneapolis, MN. I earned my Associate of Arts degree from Bethany Lutheran College in Mankato. I received my Bachelor of Arts degree in History from Southwest Minnesota State University in Marshall, MN. In my teaching career, I have taught American History, World History, Economics, Geography, Sociology and Political Science. Currently, I am the head softball coach at RMHS and an assistant coach with the Rattler football program.

Working with students has been one of my main motivating factors in my life. This motivation is a testament to my teachers, who played a huge role in shaping who I am today. Their perseverance and positive guidance helped me develop important characteristics that I have used throughout my adult life and in the classroom. I believe, by connecting with students and being a positive role model will help create a sense of ownership and pride in our school, which will help students become positive contributors to society.

In my spare time, I enjoy playing basketball, rollerblading, riding my bike, going to concerts, drawing and watching hockey, especially my home state teams, the Minnesota Wild and the University of Minnesota Golden Gophers!

It is an honor to join the staff as Career Guidance Specialist at Rancho Mirage High School.  From 2004 to 2014, I was Career Guidance Specialist at Desert Hot Springs High School.  I believe every student is unique, each with his or her own special talents and skills.  It is my pleasure to work with students as they discover careers and educational opportunities that match their achievements and ambitions.  I have a BA in English Literature from California State University, Long Beach; a somewhat entrepreneurial business background in office services and retail environments; a CTE teaching credential in Business & Finance and an Adult Education teaching credential in Elementary and Secondary Subjects from California State University, San Bernardino.  My job includes coordinating College and Career Fairs, scheduling visits from college representatives and other guests, communicating with students about scholarship applications and awards, and assisting them with finding grants and other financial aid.

My favorite activities are visiting with family and friends, reading, dancing in my living room, making necklaces, and spending too much time on the computer.

I join the Rancho Mirage High School staff with experience teaching a variety of 7th-12th grade in California, Washington, and Idaho. For seven years, I have been proudly teaching a variety of 7th grade GATE Math, 8th grade Pre-Algebra, and Algebra I at JWMS. My other experience includes high school mathematics (Geometry and Algebra II) and summer school programs, including computer-based learning for intervention, cheerleading, and National Honors Society. I graduated from University of Idaho with a degree in Secondary Education: Mathematics and English. I have always had a passion for learning, so I strive to have my students find the power of their education, especially in fields of mathematics. I look forward to building a strong school with traditions and pride in academics, athletics, and clubs.

Go Rattlers!

Bruce Rhodewalt

Bruce Rhodewalt joins RMHS after six wonderful years at Palm Springs High School, where he was the math department chair, robotics coach, and occasional actor in dramatic productions.

Mr. Rhodewalt graduated from UC Irvine with a BS in Biology and promptly spent five years as a rock & roll journalist and bandleader in Los Angeles. During a slow work month, he appeared on Jeopardy!, winning twice. He discovered computers and embarked on a 20-year career as a programmer and systems analyst, contributing to projects at multiple sheriff's offices throughout California, as well as in aerospace, including a year working on the Space Station Freedom project for NASA. A chance encounter with one of his children's Algebra textbooks led him to discover his true calling: teaching math! He earned his math credential at Cal State San Bernardino, along with an MA in Education, Instructional Technology option. At PSHS last year, he taught a course in mobile app development.

Mr. R has taught math -- the best job in the world -- for ten years. His wife Janet teaches kindergarten and coaches a robotics team in Indio. They have two grown children. With uncles, aunts, and cousins, the four spend a good part of each summer at the family cabin in Bridgeport, CA, north of Mammoth, reading, walking, eating, napping, and playing cards.

Andrew Zeihen

Mr. Zeihen (aka Mr. Z) comes to RMHS after spending the last six years at Cathedral City High School.  Mr. Zeihen attended Loyola Marymount University earning his Bachelors of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering.  He experienced the success of the “Lions” basketball team during the famous Hank Gathers and Bo Kimball era.  After graduating, Mr. Zeihen’s first teaching job was at Bishop Montgomery High School (BMHS) in Torrance, Ca.  At BMHS, he started a Computer Science Department and began teaching Computer Applications to all freshmen students and Algebra 2.  Through this experience, he quickly realized that teaching was his passion and furthered his education by earning his teaching credential in Mathematics from Cal State Dominguez Hills.  Mr. Z was also involved in school athletics as an assistant coach for the Varsity Basketball team.  After five years, Mr. Zeihen spent the next 10 years at Mira Costa High School (MCHS) in Manhattan Beach, Ca. where he taught Algebra 2 Honors and Pre-calculus.  While at MCHS, Mr. Z and a fellow Biology teacher developed a Marine Science Academy and he became the Math Department Chair!  Mr. Z continued his involvement in student activities such as musical performances with students and fellow teachers and various fundraisers.  He was actively involved in the annual “powder puff” football games and enjoyed coaching football to the senior girls. During this time, Mr. Zeihen earned his Masters degree in Educational Technology at the University of Pepperdine in Malibu, Ca.  He enjoys incorporating technology into his classroom lessons and maintains a website to assist students in their education.  After visiting the Coachella Valley numerous times, Mr. Z and his family decided to leave the Los Angeles area and make the Coachella Valley their home.  He misses playing beach volleyball, but certainly does not miss the traffic!  It is here that he fine tuned his teaching skills in Geometry at CCHS.  Mr. Zeihen is an avid sports fan and enjoys watching the Dallas Cowboys, the Los Angeles Lakers, and the Los Angeles Kings.  His wife Kimberly works in healthcare and they have three young children (Dakota 9, Austin 7, and Bryce who just turned two!).

Vocal and Instrumental Music
Andy Eisenmann

Picture
Vocal and instrumental teaching artist, Andrew Eisenmann, began his professional music career by taking the advice of an 8th grade student in Cottonwood, California in 1990. In fall of 1991, he was introduced to one of his mentor’s, 25-year Metropolitan Opera mezzo-soprano soloist, Irene Dalis, and was invited to become a member of the exciting Opera San Jose Artist in Residence Program. After just two seasons, he was awarded a principal residency, and then performed 15 leading operatic roles for San Jose and San Francisco Bay Area audiences. In 1997, Andrew performed the world premiere song cycle of Craig Bohmler’s, Why I Like Movies (later adding orchestration and changing the name to Cinema Song), which was written for him, using texts that he chose.

After his tenure as an international opera singer, in 2002, Andrew returned to his first love of teaching, working with the San Jose Unified School District in the Willow Glen Middle and High School. He was also named the #1 Silicon Valley Hero of the Arts by the San Jose Mercury News (December, 2002).

In 2004, Andrew performed with the Coachella Valley Symphony, singing opera and musical theatre, and in 2006, he appeared in Beijing, Xi’an, and Shanghai, China, conducting the Palm Desert High School Chamber Singers in five performances and staying on to teach and sing a recital of American Songs at the Shanghai Children’s Palace.  He was also awarded the prestigious Joseph B. Whitehead Excellence in Education Award by the Coca-Cola Scholar’s Foundation (and Simon Wiskowsky, one of his amazing former saxophone students).

Today, Mr. Eisenmann can proudly be found teaching both classical music and music theatre to Career Performing Arts Pathway students for the Palm Springs Unified School District, at the inception of Rancho Mirage High School, or working on the development and production of OPERA POWER (June, 2012 was the highly acclaimed 8th season, impacting nearly 13,000 public school children…free of charge), for the Palm Springs Opera Guild of the Desert / Anderson Children’s Foundation, in-school outreach program.

Andrew is also an active community member.  While serving for 18 months as Cathedral City, California – Public Arts Commissioner, he produced Cathedral City LIVEARTS! Public Performance Series.  He is the PROUD 2102-2013 PSUSD Teacher of the Year, and a 2013 Human Rights Commission Human Service Award Recipient.

At RMHS, it is Mr. Eisenmann’s goal to instill a love of the visual and performing arts, whether it be singing, painting, dancing, sculpting, playing flute, making films, bridging classical and technical arts, designing costumes, learning computer light boards, or managing a professional box office.  Within Rancho Mirage High School, there is some facet of the arts for everyone…when you find your facet, you will help our exciting new school become a crown jewel among the top high schools in the United States.

World Language Department

Wendy Bystrzycki

I am glad to be joining the team at Rancho Mirage High School.  When I was fifteen years old I visited Paris and immediately fell in love with the French culture and language. When I returned to New Mexico I began studying French in high school.  Years later, after receiving my BA in French, I packed up and moved to France.  The time I spent traveling and living over seas opened up my eyes to the endless possibilities the world has to offer.  I returned to New Mexico and received my Master's in Education.  It is then I moved to the Coachella Valley to help open Desert Hot Springs High School where I taught for 8 years.   I have taught many subjects, French, theatre, dance, leadership and many others, and I find it difficult to say which I like best. I have learned over the years that it is the teaching of students, not the particular subject, that I enjoy the most.

Since leaving Desert Hot Springs High School to focus on my family, I have been keeping active in education.  I have taught for College of the Desert, Idyllwild Arts Academy and On Your Feet Dance Productions.  I am excited to be returning to the secondary level as a Rattler!

¡HOLA RATTLERS! I am very excited for another year at Rancho Mirage High School. Growing up in the valley, I attended James Workman Middle School and Graduated from Cathedral City High School. I received my B.A. in Spanish Linguistics from the University of California, Riverside. After, I attended UCR Graduate School of Education and received my credential to teach Spanish at the secondary level. While I completed my studies at UCR I had the opportunity to study abroad to Madrid, Spain and to travel. My passion for the language, the literature and the culture immediately increased. Now, I am thrilled to share my passion for the language, and culture with students at RMHS utilizing engaging, and meaningful activities. I am looking forward to being part of an amazing school and working and helping each student blossom in and out of the classroom!

I am extremely happy and enthusiastic to join the staff at Rancho Mirage High School and look forward to share my passion for the Spanish language and culture with all my students this coming September!

I was born in El Salvador and graduated from Universidad Tecnologica de El Salvador with a Bachelor degree in English and Teaching. For 4 years, I taught ESL for children and adults, as well as English and Spanish at high school level.  As a native Spanish speaker I promote creativity and interest in multiculturalism by implementing fun, hands-on and meaningful curricular and extracurricular activities. I have been part of Palm Springs Unified School District for the last 10 years.

I am a nature lover and world traveler, spending time with my husband Sal and daughter Diana are important to me. I also enjoy going to the beach, camping, hiking, stargazing, dancing, reading and playing Sudoku.

I am very honored to be part of the opening of this great high school and to show all the students the importance of learning a second language.

Viva Rattlers!
