Tomas Rivera Elementary School

Posted April 30, 2009

The principal here really cares about her students. There are a few great teachers and a few not so great. It seems hit and miss as my children have gone through this school. The special education department is lacking and inadequate. They also make the special education students go to another school for 5th and 6th grade, even if they are only in SDC. I would recommend this school for the child who is not in special education and needing resource. It helps if you are a stay at home mom and are able to be on campus a lot. All the parents are great, very involved and the children are wonderful!!! My children have made wonderful friends at this school.

It's a curriculum driven school. I have noticed that some teachers expect the parents to do everything, including teach the class. My child has had two teachers that do nothing but sit behind a computer and hand out assignments, and then say 'here ya go.'

This is our 3rd year at Rivera and we can't say enough about the school. Each day both of our daughters look forward to going to school! The teachers truly care about teaching and about each child's personal growth. Parent participation is excellent. School activities are in abundance. We highly recommend Rivera...excellent school.
