MISSION
STATEMENT To create a positive learning
environment which promotes academic excellence, personal
responsibility and social growth.
Who was Abby Reinke?
Abby Reinke was born on
December 10, 1940 in La Crosse, Wisconsin. She graduated
with a degree in Early Childhood Development. She
married a Marine Officer, Dan Kent, who was later killed
in the Vietnam War.
Abby moved to Quantico,
Virginia to start a pre-school teaching career with her
two young daughters. She later married Major Claude
Reinke, and had 3 more children. Together they served
more than 30 years in the Marine Corps. During that
time, Abby moved her household more than 23 times, lived
on three different continents and touched the lives of
countless Marine families. Abby was a long time
volunteer with the Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society as
well as a volunteer and board member of the Armed
Services YMCA. Abby never turned a person away if help
was needed.
On November 17, 1998 Abby
was struck and killed by a car on the way to her son's
awards ceremony. Being a mother and a teacher were the
highest honors she ever wanted. Helping others,
especially children, was the joy of her life.

QUALITY
OF INSTRUCTION
TVUSD aligns its curriculum with state
standards and provides enrichment activities at the site level to support
instruction. The District also holds a philosophy
that each school principal should be the Instructional Leader on that cam-pus.
As such, principals take an active role in the learning process at each
TVUSD school, spending much of their day in the classroom.
TVUSD teachers are evaluated and given areas for improvement by
their principals. To aide in this endeavor, administrators are trained in evaluation
skills. This training is designed to help administrators evaluate their staff in a
manner that will produce better teaching in the classroom and thus enhance
student success. Staff development days enhance this
quest for excellence by giving teachers the tools needed to succeed in an on-going
manner.
Goals for Staff Development:
· Support for Literacy
· English Language Arts materials
· Support for math programs
· New teacher training
· Positive classroom management training
