A message from the Principal

I am both honored and excited to be the Principal of Riverview School.  I have been in education for 25 years, with 23 of those years here in the Dysart Unified School District. I have held multiple roles, including teacher, instructional coach, and administrator in my years of education.  I have been serving as a principal for the last 10  years.  On a personal note, my family plays a big part in who I am as an educator.  We are a proud Dysart family!  I have four amazing children, ages 23, 14, 12, and 8, all of whom have either graduated from or are currently students in Dysart.  We all share a love for sports and sporting events! 


I have always believed that a strong partnership between school and home is essential for fostering a positive, well-rounded experience for each child. I am deeply committed to working alongside you, our dedicated staff, and our students to create a connected community where high levels of learning occur for all in a safe and respectful learning environment. 


I am eager to start the new school year and continue to partner with you and your child's educational journey.  As a parent and educator myself, I understand the importance of clear communication and strong collaboration. I encourage you to reach out to me with any questions, concerns, or ideas you may have.   


I am so grateful for this opportunity to serve this amazing community!  I am so excited to see the amazing things we will achieve together this school year! 


Warm regards, 

Josephine Tokhi

A message from the Assistant Principal

Greetings Barracuda Families,  


I am honored and excited to serve as the Assistant Principal at Riverview School. I am going into my 18th year in education, with experience as both a classroom teacher and an instructional coach. Throughout my career, I have been passionate about supporting students, partnering with teachers, and building strong relationships with families to ensure every child has the opportunity to grow, learn, and succeed. 


My family and I are proud to be part of the Dysart community. I am married and blessed with four beautiful children who have attended schools in the Dysart District. When I am not serving the Riverview community, I enjoy paddleboarding, reading, and attending concerts. 


I am grateful for the opportunity to work alongside our Riverview staff, students, and families as we continue to create a safe, supportive, and welcoming school where all Barracudas SWIM to success!


Best,  

Samantha Jonat    

Assistant Principal
