Ms. Castro

Welcome! My name is Ms. Castro and I teach 7th and 8th grade integrated science here at Royal Oaks STEAM Academy.  I'm a graduate of Cal Poly Pomona and the University of La Verne. This year will be my 12th year working for Duarte USD and my 7th year at Royal Oaks. 

Course Description:

Our middle school science course curriculum is aligned with the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS).  It was designed to reflect the NGSS preferred integrated progression for middle school, in which the performance expectations for Life, Earth and Space, and Physical Sciences are integrated throughout the middle school grades.
