HELLO River Oaks Rockets!
My name is Ms. Jessica, I am the school social worker at River Oaks Elementary School. I am excited to start another new school year with this wonderful school and community. I grew up around Dearborn and have worked in Dearborn for the past 7 years now. I am honored to work for such a great district and in my community to provide social support services to our students and their families.
Even though it is quite different from other years, we will continue doing our best and helping and being kind to each other. You are not alone in this and I believe in you. I also serve on the board of directors for the Dearborn Education Foundation which provides student scholarships and classroom grants.
