Jennifer Cuevas - KMS Principal
Greetings parents, students, and community members. My name is Jennifer Cuevas and I am the new Principal at Kucera Middle School in the Rialto Unified School District. It is with tremendous excitement and enthusiasm that I share this with you. The 2023-2024 school year marks my sixth year as an administrator in Rialto and my 17th year overall as an educator. I began my career as a middle school math teacher in 2006 and I have recently served this community as Assistant Principal at Carter High School and Eisenhower High School. This past school year I also worked as the Acting Principal at Carter High School. I am committed to supporting Kucera as we strive to be a middle school of exceptional distinction.
