Rick J. Rivard

  • Rick Rivard I am a graduate at Bemidji St. Univ., Secondary Ed. Social Studies; then Winona State Elem. Ed. and for the Trifecta a Master's at Univ. of  WI- Lacrosse in Sp. Ed.

    My first year of teaching was in 1988 so I have been teaching a long time!    However I still enjoy teaching especially at Harding High School.   I am the work experience coordinator for students who receive special education services and also am the girls assistant soccer coach.  I also enjoy helping out each year with the Harding Senior Portfolio and Senior All-Knight Graduation Party.  Go Knights!!

    I am married and have two wonderful daughters.  Also I am a proud dog owner of Mango, a 12+ year old Bichon.  I am a sports fanatic and love my Golden Gophers, Knights, Twins, Vikes, and T. Wolves.  I love to cook, grill, play bocce ball, talk politics, read (my favorite author is James Michener and Larry McMurtry) and watch good movies.   I still like to work-out but had to give up the long-distance running :( 

     

    I am proud to be a teacher/ coach at Harding High.  GO KNIGHTS!
