It isn’t every day that a national president visits Rio Rancho, but such was the case April 9 when American Federation of Teachers President Randi Weingarten came to town.
Former Rio Rancho Elementary teacher Stephanie Ly, now the American Federation of Teachers New Mexico president, and Rio Rancho School Employees Union President Billie Helean, who took the day off from her first-grade teaching duties at Stapleton Elementary, accompanied her. RRSEU Vice President Gino Satriana was also part of the entourage, which first visited the district’s transportation depot before making the short drive west on Northern Boulevard to Stapleton.

“It raised expectations, unfortunately, without people really understanding what needed to be done. One of the things that are really going to be a factor in this is there s 89 school districts and all of those need to be done. We ve been told it may not happen when you want it.” Dr. Cleveland said.
