Riviera Schools Welcomes Danielle Rivero to Riviera Preparatory School's Counseling Department
Coral Gables, FL (PRWEB) January 20, 2016 -- As of January 11, 2016, Riviera Preparatory School is happy to announce that they have expanded the school's counseling department with the appointment of Mrs. Danielle Rivero.
Mrs. Rivero is a veteran educator with an extensive background as a counselor and a college adviser. As a graduate from the University of Miami, with degrees in Sociology, Criminology, and Psychology, Mrs. Rivero has counseled students on the matters of college admissions and financial assistance for over a decade.
Riviera Day School was first established in 1950. Over the years, it has expanded and is now home to preschool and kindergarten through fifth grade. It is now known as Coral Gables, Florida's oldest independent school system.
In more recent years, Riviera Schools has placed an added emphasis on academic growth and excellence. In 2011, Riviera Preparatory School expanded, adding a 10-acre campus to serve high school and middle school students. This location is just four miles away from the Day School campus.
Since the 2011 expansion, the school has been hard at work trying to evolve internally as well. Riviera Schools is now focusing on improving the counseling department, with the goals of helping all students get into the college of their dreams and to continue striving for academic excellence.
To that end, the school is looking forward to having someone as well seasoned, passionate, and qualified as Mrs. Rivero join the already well established and dynamic department.
Associate Director Peter Cohen stated, "Experience as an academic and career counselor at Westminster Christian School, assistant director of Undergraduate Education at Florida International University, and director of Student Services at Everest Institute provided Mrs. Rivero with a wealth of experience, enthusiasm, creativity, and the ability to relate to and assist students from a wide variety of social and educational backgrounds."
