TORIBIO RIVERA

**SU Toribio Rivera** (Segunda Unidad Toribio Rivera) is a public educational institution located in the Sabana sector of the Frontón ward in Ciales, Puerto Rico. As a "Segunda Unidad," the school historically follows the traditional Puerto Rican educational model that combines elementary and middle school grades (typically Kindergarten through 8th or 9th grade) under one administration. Situated in a rural, mountainous setting along Highway 146, the school serves as a vital anchor for the local Frontón community, providing foundational education to students in this interior region of the island.

The school operates under the jurisdiction of the Puerto Rico Department of Education and reflects the challenges and characteristics common to rural schools in the central region of the island. Due to its geographic location, the school plays a significant role in the social fabric of the Sabana community, often serving as a hub for local families. Like many schools in the Ciales area, it focuses on delivering the standard core curriculum while navigating the logistical needs and community-centered initiatives necessary for students living in the mountainous interior of Puerto Rico.
