July 9 Update



Summer continues to bring opportunities for students to learn at Rivera. This week, Mrs. Adela Flores-Bertrand is teaching an English Language Development (ELD) Academy for 14 of our first through third grade English Learners. The students are excited about the opportunity to attend the academy which is evidenced by the fact that all 14 of them have been here every day!




Assisting Mrs. Flores-Bertrand with the academy are Keri Atwood, our Assistant Principal's Secretary, and Karen Setzler, our 1st/2nd grade Special Day Class teacher. Next week the Academy is being held for our 4th-6th grade English Learners. Mrs. Thomazin, a Rivera 4th grade teacher, will assist Mrs. Flores-Bertrand next week.



Mrs. Alicia Grissom, RUSD Program Specialist, spent the morning at Rivera gathering data for the Special Education Annual Report. It's always nice to see familiar faces on campus during the summer as it can get v-e-r-y- quiet around here at times! Not that I'm complaining! :)









Our custodians, DeShaun, Joe, and Gabe are busy deep-cleaning the entire school. In addition, RUSD painters are on campus this week re-painting all of our doors, ramps, and railings. Our students and staff can look forward to returning in August to a sparkling-clean school!
