¡Hola! I'm the Spanish teacher here at RGMS. I hold a B.A. in Spanish from the University of North Texas ('14) and Master of Education from Portland State University. I am passionate about the joy of learning languages and am thrilled to share that joy with my students. Outside of teaching, my interests include backcountry travel, listening to jazz music, and learning about linguistics.

Mr. David Kennedy

Hi! I am the computer teacher (Tech 1 & 2) and local techy-nerd at RGMS. In an earlier life, I worked at AT&T as a UNIX administrator in Atlanta, GA. I’m originally from the biggest little state in the union, Rhode Island. I graduated from Providence College as an English major, and I completed a teacher program at Concordia in 2009. I enjoy anything computer-related, running (10+ miles/week), classical music, and being a teacher.

Ms. Anne Reid

I love working with middle school students! At RGMS I teach ESOL (English to speakers of other languages) and 8th grade language arts. I have earned undergraduate and graduate degrees in California as well as education endorsements here in Oregon. I have three children, the last of which is a senior at Ida B Wells High School.  When I am not teaching or raising my family, you can find me in the outdoors, hiking or backpacking, swimming and camping. Additionally, I am an active member of a competitive master's rowing team. We practice very early in the morning on the Willamette River and compete in regattas on the west coast and beyond. I also love to travel here in the west, or abroad when possible. I look forward to working with students and families toward academic growth and confidence.
