The "Strategic Plan" project for the Saugus Union School District is currently being worked on by Rio Vista Elementary. The goal is to help all students learn how to work together and think critically in the 21st century. The library media center at the school recently got new digital resources and books. These are good for all students and can be used for a lot of different things. Parents are invited to the next School Site Council meeting, where they can help decide on the school's academic and safety goals for the next term.
