Principal's Message

Nicolas \"Nick\" Gillcrese
Riverbank Families, 
 
It is with great pride and excitement that I welcome you to Riverbank Elementary for the 2024-2025 school year! I am honored to be a part of such a wonderful school community filled with amazing kids, dedicated teachers and supportive families. Riverbank is a vibrant and dynamic learning community that is committed to growing lifelong readers, writers, and problem solvers who will be college and career ready. We are excited this year to begin a new Dual Language Immersion Program for kindergarteners. Students in these classes will spend half their day learning academic content in English and the other half in Spanish, as over time they grow into bilingual and biliterate learners.
 
As we embark on this exciting journey, I also invite you to immerse yourself in other school activities and events this year. I am confident that our collective efforts will lead to outstanding achievements and memorable experiences for our students. Thanks in advance for being an integral part of our school community. Let’s make this year a remarkable one!
 
Educationally yours,
 
Nicholas Gillcrese (Mr.G)
Principal
