Cabinet greeted Long and Frinzell as they started the morning at the RUSD's Central Kitchen

Officials watched the daily operations of the RUSD’s nutrition programs taking place as they toured the facility responsible for preparing and serving more than 40,000 meals to students daily, with 60% of those menus being created from scratch

Both Long and Frinzell said they walked away impressed with the innovative and holistic approach taken from not only Nutrition Services but principals, teachers and parents at both Rialto Middle School and Werner Elementary School

“From the bottom of my heart, what a moving and inspirational day today has been,” Long said “I’m here representing the U S Department of Agriculture We are the agency that is responsible for all the child nutrition programs, and we spend a lot of time doing things like rules, regulations, and budgets Coming to a place like Rialto and seeing what you are able to do with these programs, is just extraordinarily inspirational ”

District highlighted its dedication to student health and nutrition and the District’s award-winning nutrition and garden programs

The USDA’s visit served as a celebration of Nutrition Services and the numerous accolades they have earned, including the 2018 "Great Grains" Award, the 2020 "Turnip the Beet" Silver Award, and the 2021 and 2022 "Turnip the Beet" Gold Awards

The visit comes as part of the

White House’s continued advocacy for child nutrition and support for school meals, as evidenced by their recent allocation of $50 million in grants that will increase collaboration between schools, food producers, and suppliers

“We were so excited to welcome Cindy Long and Kim Frinzell to visit RUSD to see how our unique Rialto Child Nutrition Services program has bridged the cafeteria, classroom, and community,” stated Fausat Rahman-Davies, Lead Child Nutrition Agent “We are hopeful that our model of interdependence is scalable for all of California so we can nurture every student’s body, soul, and spirit ”

From the Central Kitchen, officials visited the Outdoor Learning Lab at Rialto Middle School with students taking the lead and showing off their school garden

They also toured RMS kitchen facilities, and dining area, and were introduced to the kitchen staff before moving on to nearby Werner Elementary School, where they were joined by RUSD Board of Education

President Stephanie E Lewis and Board Member Edgar Montes

Montes and Lewis stated they were thankful to show off the District’s approach to combining nutrition and education

“We are the bread basket of the young mind,” Lewis said “What Rialto has decided to do and continues to do is to put nutrition first When you think of nutrition you think of the fuel for students to succeed That’s the brain fuel That’s what we are doing We are putting highoctane, quality, USDA-grade food into the engines the

hearts, the minds of our students ”

With representatives from congressional, State, and regional levels, Nutrition Services and both schools were commended for their commitment to nutrition education

Board Member Montes stated: “I want to express my gratitude and appreciation to every single person from Superintendent Dr Avila all the way across our school sites and service areas for this program and similar programs that help our children really get the best out of their education What better way to teach kids to grow food and then be able to eat the food that they grow? It goes a long way to educate our children ”

While at Werner Elementary School officials were able to sample student-menu items in the school garden and participate in a farmer ’s market with students inside the school library

The group wrapped up at Werner Elementary with a roundtable discussion that included RUSD families, staff, and administrators

The discussion covered the importance of nutrition for healthy children Topics covered strategies and best practices in supporting child health at the local level Finally, Long, Frinzell and Rahman-Davies sat down for an interview on the District “Bridge Podcast” to cap the day’s events

Frinzell ended, “This is what education is all about Thank you for all that you do I can’t wait to go back to Sacramento and share all of your amazing work ”

contributor, the community of the student receives an additional 12 dollars This support helps close equity and opportunity gaps, transforming and enriching lives

Chancellor Diana Rodriguez expressed her gratitude towards SMBMI, sharing a heartfelt story about a young man who overcame adversity with the help of the Valley Bound Commitment Program, which would not have been possible without SMBMI's support

She said, "One particular young man, Devin, was against all odds; he dreamt big and grew up in a disadvantaged neighborhood in the Inland Empire He refused to be defined by his circumstances and was determined to be the first person in his family to attend college His dream came alive when he became accepted into the Valley Bound Commitment Program "

Rodriguez continued, "He excelled in the program and inspired his peers, he was on track, but then life had other plans for him He had to get a job to make ends meet; he felt lost and drifted, and tragedy struck Devin was in a life-threatening car accident It was a wake-up call, and he needed to change to live his life to the fullest and give back to his community With the Valley Bound Commitment Program's support, he decided to return He faced many setbacks but never gave up "

Chancellor Rodriguez proudly shared the young man's success: "I'm thrilled to share that Devin will be graduating this August with a degree It is a testament to his resilience and unwavering

determination But his achievement is also a testimony to the transformative power of the support from SMBMI They have been incredibly supportive to students like Devin, showing that you can achieve anything you desire with determination, hard work, and support So, on behalf of the community and the 20,000 students that we have, we express our sincerest gratitude to the SMBMI; we truly appreciate it "

The Valley Bound Commitment Program has been pivotal in eliminating financial barriers for nearly 2,000 students, providing them with essential resources and support

Lynn Nay Valbuena, Chairwoman of SMBMI, emphasized the importance of education as a top priority She said, "We believe in investing in the future through education and creating pathways for those who would not have had the opportunities " Through our commitment, SMBMI has supported students at Chaffey College, Crafton Hills College, San Bernardino Valley College, and Victor Valley College with textbooks, scholarships, supplies, and more

Valbuena added, "Together, we are not only improving students' lives but uplifting families and communities and driving economic development " Then, in the Serrano language of the SMBMI, she concluded, "Hakup A' Ai," meaning thank you, regarding the recognition

T he Wyland Mobile Lear ning Center coming to Rialto April 19; mor e than 800 students par ticipating

Community News

On April 19, the Wyland Foundation Mobile Learning Experience will host more 800 3rd graders representing nine Rialto Elementary Schools from 10 a m to 2 p m as part of the annual Earth to Table Event hosted by Mayor Deborah Robertson The event will take place during the city’s weekly Rialto Farmer ’s Market

The annual event focuses on bringing to life the importance of Earth as it relates to our health, including the importance of water conservation Students will have the opportunity to explore how water affects quality of life and the role they can play in protecting our planet

Earlier this month, U S Rep Pete Aguilar visited the City of Rialto and took the 2023 Wyland National Mayor ’s Challenge to Water Conservation pledge As an annual supporter of the Wyland National Mayor ’s Challenge, Mayor Robertson explained, “Heavy rainfall in the past several weeks does not mean that our community should

be lax about conserving water It is more important that water conservation is viewed as a lifestyle of our community and that Rialto understands the value of each drop of water by not wasting it ”

The Foundation is named for the artist Wyland, whose lifesized murals of marine life span twelve countries on four continents

“The importance of our community making water conservation a way of life starts with our children,” Mayor Robertson said “Children easily understand the importance of water conservation because it is what makes sense And when that information is packaged into a state-ofthe-art 1,000-square-foot bio-diesel science museum on wheels, featuring a 40-person multi-sensory theater and seven interactive stations, with classroom lessons tied to state standards, and a running water display, children are in awe of learning and cannot resist going home to teach their parents and brothers and sisters all about water conservation ”

300,000 Inland Empir e Residents at Risk of Losing Medi-Cal Benefits Community News

DThis month, an overlooked piece of mail could have disastrous consequences for hundreds of thousands of Riverside and San Bernardino families that rely on Medi-Cal benefits

To avoid a public health crisis after the annual redetermination process of Medi-Cal resumed this week, Inland Empire Health Plan (IEHP) and Riverside County’s Department of Public Social Services and San Bernardino County’s Transitional Assistance Department are coordinating a first-of-its-kind partnership

California warns that approximately 2-3 million Medi-Cal enrollees statewide could lose or see interruptions in their health care coverage during the process

“The annual redetermination process is one of the biggest efforts taking place in the history of the Medi-Cal program,” said IEHP Chief Executive Officer Jarrod McNaughton “The partnership with the two counties demonstrates our commitment to making sure Inland Empire residents have continued coverage ”

All three entities are working in tandem to share data and coordi-

nate strategic outreach efforts to ensure residents undergoing the Medi-Cal renewal process complete and submit requested information

“The county and partner agencies are ready to help residents impacted through the redetermination process to keep these essential benefits,” said Riverside County Executive Officer Jeff Van Wagenen “We are reaching out to the 37,000 residents by mail and phone whose redeterminations are due in June

We’ve also alerted local hospitals, clinics, and health care providers We will be reaching out to our impacted residents directly each month as their redeterminations come due ”

Beginning this month, residents who receive Medi-Cal renewal packets in the mail must complete and send back the requested information included in the yellow renewal packets within 60 days or lose their Medi-Cal benefits

Members could start losing coverage as early as July 1, impacting current treatment of severe illnesses or chronic conditions and increasing outof-pocket medical costs

“The County is committed to ensuring the health and wellbeing of those who depend on Medi-Cal benefits,” said San

Bernardino County’s Transitional Assistance Department Director Gilbert Ramos “With the end of the federal Public Health Emergency, collaborating with IEHP and Riverside County will help raise awareness of the actions beneficiaries must take to maintain their health care coverage and in many cases their quality of life ”

In December 2022, Congress passed the Consolidated Appropriations Act 2023 (CAA) –which stipulated the continuous coverage provision that prohibited states from disenrolling members from Medicaid since 2020, due to the COVID-19 public health emergency would expire at the end of March 2023

To prepare, IEHP has hired an eligibility team fully dedicated to helping IEHP members complete the Medi-Cal redetermination process

Each month after receiving lists of members coming up for renewal and updated and verified contact information from both counties, the IEHP team will reach out to members via text and/or phone to alert them this important packet is coming in the mail

“The County’s partnership will help beneficiaries stay informed of these next crucial steps to complete the requested informa-

tion within the 60 days and ensure continuity of health care coverage,” said San Bernardino County’s Chief Executive Officer Leonard X Hernandez

Once the packet is received, IEHP will assist the member in completing and submitting the required information, whether by phone or with one-on-one assistance at a community resource center

The IEHP team will continue checking in until the member has submitted the information by mail, phone, online, or at a local county Medi-Cal office

Medi-Cal members may also receive assistance through the county Medi-Cal office The good news is Medi-Cal members whose household income now exceeds eligibility requirements won’t fall through the system

These members will be automatically enrolled into Covered California, the state health insurance marketplace established by the Affordable Care Act There, they may be eligible for a federally subsidized health plan

For more information or assistance, IEHP members may call the IEHP eligibility team at 1888-860-1296 Non-IEHP members should visit benefitscal com

CSUSB Model United Nations Team Travels to National Model UN Confer ence

Community News

While the campus was quiet on the Cesár Chávez holiday, a classroom on the third floor of the College of Social and Behavioral Sciences building buzzed with activity as the Cal State San Bernardino Model United Nations team made final preparations for the National United Nations Conference

The practice session would be the last on campus before the student delegates would board a red-eye flight to New York City late April 7 The conference marks the culmination of work the 17 students have applied themselves to since the start of the spring semester, researching the history, politics and policies of Austria, and learning to take on the roles of diplomats from that country and how to interact with diplomats from other countries

“I think that this program is probably the most intense program you’ll ever be in,” said one student delegate, Ethan Silva, a senior political science major “You learn about all kinds of different countries –it’s not just Austria or a specific country It’s the whole world, because you have to know all the aspects of what they focus on, what they want to implement You learn so many new things ”

-lished as an academic program by Ralph Salmi, professor emeritus of the CSUSB Department of Political Science

The program continued its success under the leadership of Kevin Grisham (now the interim associate vice president for Faculty Affairs & Development at CSUSB) until 2020, when Bastami was named the program director

Past participants in the Model United Nations program have said the conference simulations gave them real-life experiences in diplomacy and relationship building Some program graduates have embarked on careers in diplomacy, while others have gone on to prestigious graduate programs, such as the Harvard School of Law

Many of the alumni come back every year to speak to the next generation of CSUSB Model UN students and help support them through mentorship, providing students with networks around the globe and fiscal support

Participation in the CSUSB Model UN program is through a class (GEOG 5756) offered by the Department of Geography and Environmental Studies that is open to all students and majors interested in global issues and studies

Geography 5756 fulfills General Education requirements for all enrolled undergraduates and graduates at CSUSB

Accompanying Silva are fellow team members are Blessing Nwogu, Ramtin Ranjpour, Rachel Rodgers, Krystopher De Lira, Andrea Colombel, Alyssa Lujan, Luis Fernando Lizama, Cynthia Roman, Alexander Edsell, Karen Terrero, Joselyne Salcedo, Guadalupe Miranda, Angeli Richard, Pedro Hernandez, Michelle Markham, and Gary Williams Sina Bastami, director of the CSUSB Model UN program, will be in New York with them Their progress, and that of the entire conference, can be followed at the National Model UN Facebook page CSUSB is participating in Conference B

In the conference print program, CSUSB is recognized as one of 21 universities that have participated for at least 30 consecutive years “The long-term support of these schools reflects the hard work and dedication of faculty advisors, students and administrators,” conference organizers wrote “It shows the commitment to experiential learning opportunities like (National Model UN) as well as the ideals embodied by the United Nations ”

The CSUSB’s Model UN students have been participating in the conferences since 1977, when the program was estab-
