CSDR… where language and learning thrive!
-Support children becoming balanced bilingual individuals by recognizing the relationships between language development, cognitive development and social/emotional development. 
-Value and utilize data to ensure ongoing, consistent improvement both for the individual student and the school as a whole.
-Grow professionally as educators who implement standards-based best practices by planning collaboratively with resources and training.
-Foster a physically and emotionally safe learning environment.
-Respect families as a vital part of the students’ learning, where staff and families work together, and put the good of the student first.

CAD President Perry E. Seely listened to Southern California parents' wishes for another California school for the Deaf in the Southern California counties. He fought for 20 years to get a bill signed into law for California School for the Deaf in Riverside to be established. CSD-R first opened to the students who came for student housing on Sunday, February 2, 1953, with first day of school beginning on Monday, February 3, 1953. From its inception in 1953, the California School for the Deaf, Riverside has attracted deaf scholars and staff with innovative spirit and a desire to serve deaf students. These exceptional individuals create paths of success and opportunities for students.
