WELCOME to RUDY G. BOLOGNA Elementary School! Home of the Scorpions!

My Educational Philosophy
I believe that what happens in this classroom will affect your child’s future, their mindset. Your child’s time here will be well spent. He or she may even come home exhausted from all the thinking done during the day. I will make every minute count. With dedication, perseverance, and hard work, students will rise to the high expectations set. With your help, we can make it happen. A safe place for all those First Attempts In Learning. As we go along we know there will be those times we may not be able to directly help but . . . we will be able to . . . keep them company along the way and remember what matters most is . . . TO KEEP GOING.
