Riverside Spanish Immersion is an inclusive dual-language program within Rochester Public Schools. Students are immersed in the Spanish language while learning the same grade-level standards as their peers in non-immersion classrooms. Through daily instruction in Spanish, students develop bilingualism, biliteracy, and cross-cultural understanding.
These photos highlight just a few of the celebrations that take place throughout the year at Riverside, bringing language and culture to life while helping students build meaningful connections to the Spanish-speaking world.

Sara Holger from Project Get Outdoors is a special part of what makes Riverside unique! From teaching students about metamorphosis and storytelling to tapping maple trees in our school forest and leading field trips to Whitewater State Park and Oxbow Park, she brings learning to life through unforgettable outdoor experiences. This winter, when some of our families were afraid to leave their homes and students shifted to online learning, Sara created nature backpacks filled with supplies for them to continue outdoor learning at home. We are grateful for this partnership and the curiosity, wonder, and connection to nature it inspires in our students.

Ms. Anderson's class harvested lettuce, radishes, and fresh herbs from our school garden and turned them into a delicious salad. It was rewarding to enjoy the fruits of our labor and see firsthand how our hard work in the garden has paid off.
