About Me
My name is Mrs. Rioux and I’m excited to be your kindergarten teacher! I love children & teaching & I especially love teaching kindergarten! I live with my husband, Rick & we have three children, Cody, 25, Brady, 22 & Cassidy, 18 and an 11 month old puppy, Sanibel. We love to hike, swim, paddle-board, play games, read and go on trips together! I'm looking forward to starting new adventures with you in kindergarten!
