A Message from Our Assistant Principal

Welcome Back!

Dear Parents, Students, and Community Members:

I am delighted to welcome you back to another exciting and adventurous school year as I continue to serve this wonderful community.  As your Assistant Principal, my priority is the well-being, safety, and academic success of all of our students.  My goal is to create an environment that nurtures not only academic achievement but also fosters a growth mindset, critical thinking skills, and social skills. Together with our dedicated faculty and staff, we are committed to providing a safe, supportive, and inspiring learning environment where every student can thrive. This year our school theme, Sailing “A”way   to   Greater   Depths, focuses on four pillars: data driven instruction, targeted instruction and supports, a student-centered learning environment, and collaborative planning.

I believe that schools are an integral part of the community.  This is why I strive to partner with parents and the community to support our students by providing them with a well-rounded, rigorous education. As an integral part of this partnership, we ask parents and guardians to support your child’s learning by ensuring that your child attends school daily and arrives on time, ready for the day’s learning experience.  At Riverland Elementary, our entire faculty and staff is dedicated to creating a safe and trusting environment dedicated to the success of our students.

I have an open-door policy and look forward to working alongside you to provide your children with the best educational opportunity possible.  Please do not hesitate to reach out to me if I can be of assistance to you. I look forward to a wonderful school year and to seeing you soon!

Luciana Gentile

Assistant Principal
