Mr. Jerry Walker is the principal of Richvale Elementary School
Richvale Elementary School
Our Mission is to provide a safe and effective learning environment, which enables students to achieve their maximum potential!
Richvale Elementary School is a small rural school located in the heart of Northern California’s rice land. Richvale is an accepting close-knit community which has a small town atmosphere where children and families feel safe. Most students are from the community of Richvale, while others are bused from nearby communities of Biggs and Oroville. Richvale Elementary is part of the bigger Biggs Unified School District. Our enrollment is approximately 35 students for grades 1st through 6th. Our school has four classrooms, a library/central common area, a cafeteria, a full-sized gymnasium with a performance stage, and a new 25 computer capacity computer lab.
The Staff
Two experienced teachers provide class room instruction at Richvale. Ms. Brown teaches a combination class of grades 1-3, and Mrs. Jones teaches a combination class of grades 4-6. Each teacher has specialties and brings a wealth of talent and skill to the classroom, individually, as well as collectively, to benefit the entire school. Fine arts, science, social sciences, and technology are some of the areas in which our teachers excel. Their commitment to academic excellence and to a child's welfare is apparent in everything they do.
In addition, we have three highly experienced instructional aides: Helen Kramer, Nancy Bill and Lynell Job.
Parents & Community
Parent and community involvement are another invaluable part of Richvale Elementary School's success. Parents have committed their time and efforts in supporting the school. They work closely with the teachers and administration to enrich the educational experience for the students. Release Hour is available at the neighborhood community church facility.
