Jennifer Cuevas - KMS Principal

Greetings parents, students, and community members. My name is Jennifer Cuevas and I am the proud and enthusiastic Principal at Kucera Middle School in the Rialto Unified School District. It is with tremendous excitement and enthusiasm that I welcome you all to the 2025-2026 school year. This school year marks my ninth year as an administrator in Rialto and my 20th year overall as an educator. I began my career as a middle school math teacher in 2006 and I have served this community as Assistant Principal at Carter High School and Eisenhower High School. I am committed to supporting Kucera as we strive to be a middle school of exceptional distinction.

SchoolFundr Fundraiser - We need your help!

Dear Coyote Families,
We are excited to announce that our school fundraiser is officially starting!

This fundraiser helps us raise money for student activities, field trips, incentives, and much more.

All things that directly support and enrich your child’s school experience.

Each student has received a golden flyer at Back to School Night,

or they can get one from their English teacher.

Please make sure your student brings this flyer to class tomorrow with 20 email addresses of family and friends written on it.

These emails will be used to set up their fundraising account and begin collecting donations.

To make things even more exciting, the students who raise the most donations will be invited to a special prize truck party during their 5th and 6th period classes at a later date.
If you have any questions, please contact me at kuceraasb@rialtousd.org

Thank you for your support in helping our school continue to provide meaningful opportunities for students.

Together, we can make this fundraiser a huge success!

Drop-Off and Pick-Up Procedures

Hello Kucera families,

Please know that students are not to be dropped off or picked up in the front parking lot.

This is a parking lot and not a drop-off location.

The “cutout” is the drop-off lanes between the two parking lots on campus.

That is where students enter in the morning.
For after-school pickup and parking for parents is only on the street.

The front parking lot is a non-pick-up area.

The “cutout “ on the side and parking lot for the MPR are for buses only.

I appreciate everyone!

School Fundr Fundraiser STARTS Now!

School Fundr Fundraiser STARTS TODAY!

Dear Coyote Families!
Thank you so much for your support in helping us launch our school fundraiser! We are raising money for student activities, field trips, incentives, and more, and every contribution truly makes a difference for our students.

If you haven’t already, please help us and take a moment to set up your student’s account with School Fundr and start sending donation requests to family and friends. This step is very important to help us reach our fundraising goals! Please use the QR code and the flyer attached to help with this process.

We also want to reassure you that this is not a scam. Unlike many other fundraising companies that keep a large percentage of the profit, with School Fundr we keep 100% of the funds raised, and they go directly toward supporting your child’s experiences at school.
The more participation we have, the more opportunities we can provide for our students—thank you in advance for helping us make this fundraiser a success!

Kucera Parent Night 2025_2026

Happy First Day of School

I am looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow for the first day of school. A couple of quick reminders for the first day:

Dress code will be strictly enforced! Students must cover all private body parts covered (including midriffs) and undergarments are not to be visible. Students are allowed to wear hats. Clothing cannot display violence, nudity, profanity, or depict drug and alcohol usage.
Per the Rialto USD school board policy students cannot have electronic devices out during school time. Cell phones need to be put away in backpacks and not visible. If students are not compliant with this rule their phone will be confiscated and returned only to a parent at the end of the school day.
Updated student schedules are viewable in StudentVue and ParentVue. Students will receive an updated printed copy of their schedule during their 1st period class.
Back to School Night is Wednesday August 13th from 5:00 to 7:00 PM.
Students can be dropped off starting at 7:30 AM each day. They will enter through the drop off area between the main office and the MPR. known as the "cut-out". This is the ONLY drop-off location in the morning. Students are NOT to enter through the main office. Only students who ride the bus will enter campus through the blue gates by the MPR parking lot.
Please be patient and kind to other drivers in the morning and ensure student safety during the morning drop-off.
Breakfast is provided to all students through their 1st period class.

This is going to be a phenomenal school year!
