1 review for Rigler Elementary School

  • Reviewed by Parent/Guardian on February 06, 2007
  • Rating: 5 (5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate
  • I have 2 children attending Rigler, one in the Spanish Immersion program and one not. In both cases I have been very happy with our experience. The climate at Rigler is exciting - the principal has great vision for the school; there is a hugely diverse population, in terms of language and economics; the teachers are engaged; and there is a quickly growing pool of parents who are working, along with the staff, to ensure that we are providing our children with the best educational environment that we can.
