We have not yet received confirmation, but based on our testing Verizon has resolved the call routing issue for their customers. Calls to the District Office, Manzanita, and Village are now being correctly processed for Verizon customers.

Hi Rincon Valley Community, The phone numbers for the District Office, Manzanita Elementary, and Village Elementary were migrated to a new provider this morning. All providers except Verizon have pulled the updated call routing information to route calls to our new provider. We expect Verizon to update shortly and are working with their support to speed up this process. Until this is resolved, calls from Verizon service to the District Office, Village Elementary, and Manzanita Elementary will not go through. Calls from other services or calls to other campuses are not affected at this time.

Dear RVUSD Community, There was a recent Sonoma Sheriff’s Department Facebook post regarding the arrest of a teacher’s aid at Village Charter School. This is not our campus, Village Elementary Charter on Yulupa ave., but is instead another school not affiliated with RVUSD, Village Charter School on Piner rd.

HI RVUSD Parents, We had a great two days with Jamie Nunez of Common Sense media speaking to our 4th,5th,7th, and 8th graders about digital citizenship. Below are some of the pictures from these events. If you were not able to attend our parent event we have also included the recording below. https://youtu.be/URaQdTmGw6M

All phones are back up. A crossed connection at an AT&T network operations center caused the issue and was repaired.

Dear RVUSD Families, We have confirmed with our phone provider that the issue is with their connection. They are aware of this issue's seriousness and are currently working on a solution.

Dear Rincon Valley Staff and Families, We are definitely getting the rain that we needed. We are aware of the alerts that have gone out about areas of Santa Rosa that are experiencing flooding. We have had crews checking out our school sites and at this time are planning to have schools open tomorrow, Monday October 25th.

Dear RVUSD Families, The California state legislature has approved new guidelines for Independent Study. Independent Study is the basis of our Home Study program and is the offering we are able to provide as a district for families who wish to have their students remain in a distance learning setting. We expect that the vast majority of students will return to our campuses, but need to also provide a continued learning option for those keeping their students at home. We have attached more information for your consideration here. https://bit.ly/3zrXbgv
