Bridge Podcast: Kucera Middle School Named a National School to Watch
Friday, 6 March, 2026

Kucera Middle School is making history. In this episode of The Bridge Podcast, we celebrate Kucera being named a 2026 California and National School to Watch and highlight the culture behind that recognition. Joining the conversation are Principal Jennifer Cuevas, 2024 RUSD Middle School Teacher of the Year Miriam Trudeau, and seventh grade student Yanilen Johnson, who won Kucera's first ever Spelling Bee. From launching a brand new spelling bee to building a school culture where students thrive, this episode explores how leadership, great teaching, and student confidence come together at Kucera Middle School.
