Mrs. Rivas
Welcome To Rio Vista !
My name is Bianca Rivas, and I am so proud to have been teaching for the Amphitheater School District for over 29 years! I have been at Rio Vista since 2004. Working with students has always been my passion. I especially love watching my students learn, develop, understand, and grow into life-long learners. Teaching has truly been and continues to be a fulfilling career for me. Every year seems to get even better! I have taught students of every grade level from Kinder all the way to College !I love working with students of all ages as each grade level has special qualities and uniqueness. I am excited and fortunate to be working with Kinder and First Grade English Language Learners this 2023-2024 school year.
Defining Moment in Education
I knew that I wanted to be a teacher ever since I was in elementary school.
Core Educational Belief
All students have the potential to be successful. I try my best to empower my students daily by filling their time with meaningful learning experiences.
"Teachers who love teaching teach children who love learning." -Unknown
