RIVER SCHOOL WINS PRESTIGIOUS GOLDEN BELL AWARD!

The Golden Bell Award is sponsored by the California School Board Association. The Golden Bell Awards program, now in its 29th year, promotes excellence in education by recognizing outstanding programs in school districts and county offices of education throughout California.

River School received its Golden Bell for its work in "Implicit Curriculum" which responds to students' developmental needs to build character, improve academic achievement, and increase school safety. Linda Inlay and Heather Watson received the Golden Bell at the CSBA luncheon in San Diego and were supported by the John Glaser, district superintendent, and four Board of Trustees of Napa Valley Unified.

The River School Golden Bell application can be found here.

AMAZING RACE A HUGE SUCCESS!
