Parent Involvement at Rio Vista
We would like to welcome all new and returning parents and students for the new school year. We hope you will join us as we
work together with our teachers and staff to support the growth and development of students here on campus. We encourage you
to participate in the Parent Teacher Association (PTA), School Site Council (SSC), English Language Acquisition Committee
(ELAC), and other site committees and projects. Please contact the school office for additional information. Meeting dates will

students with a quality education and a positive and safe environment.
