From the Principal

"Kucera will provide a high quality education that prepares all students to be productive contributing members of society".

Kucera Families,
 
Quarter 2 ends December 16. Remind your student to complete all assignments, projects, essays, and homework.
Contact your student's teachers for academic progress updates by calling the office.
If your student is not proficient or advanced with grade level state standards or has not shown appropriate progress with 1st Quarter grades and now 2nd Quarter progress make sure you are supporting high expectations at home with action. Make sure your student attends the available tutoring and Peer Tutoring. We have tutoring available daily for math and ELA. Our collective actions send a strong message to students. Thank you for partnering with us.

Our counseling program with California State University, San Bernardino is held two scheduled Saturdays a month, December 3 and December 10 8:15-12:15. If your student or family needs counseling the services are free. You can show up on scheduled Saturdays or you can call and make sure you have an appointed time for your needs. Our Free music program is also held each Saturday. Get involved now.

Celebrate learning this year with your student and plan to get involved positively. Attend RUSD's Parent trainings held at the Cesar Chavez/Delores Huerta Center also known as the old Rialto Middle School campus. Call for details.

Parents/Guardians if you ever have a question or concern please contact the teacher, counselor, Middle School Administrator, Assistant Principal, or the principal. We are here to work together for the success of your student. I have an open door policy.

Our sports program is back for the 2011-2012 school year.  Basketball begins December 3, 2011. All games are held at Rialto Middle School on Cedar and Rialto Ave.

Please join Kucera as we maintain our focus on academic improvement for every student and a health and fitness focus. Students and their families should eat well balanced meals,exercise,and have adequate rest so they are ready to dream, work, and achieve their potential each day.

Kucera Middle School is committed to providing a safe, productive learning environment that promotes high academic achievement, good citizenship, and healthy personal character development. Students are both supported and challenged daily as they learn grade level academic standards. Students are developing improved vocabulary skills so please review their academic vocabulary with them each night.

Students that experience conflict of any kind must be responsible and report it to a security officer, a counselor, or an administrator who will take the time to help the student resolve the conflict appropriately. We need parents to communicate their high expectations to their student and encourage their student to always make appropriate and safe choices to avoid unwanted consequences.

Students that need a safe place to complete homework and learn grade level standards should enroll in our After School Program that is facilitated by THINK Together. Pick up an application or have your student bring home an application. Space is limited.
