The school has announced it has promoted vice principal and second grade teacher Annette Riggio to the post.
Riggio,34, has worked at the school for the past two years. She is a lifelong parishioner of St. Robert Bellarmine church.
Prior to working at St. Roberts, Riggio spent nine years teaching second and third grade and serving as vice principal at St. Felicitas and Perpetua in San Marino.

“I’m excited and looking forward to my new role,” Riggio said. “I have really enjoyed my first two years here and have seen many great things. I hope to continue those things and build upon them as we continue to offer a top Catholic education.”
She is a graduate of Hoover High in Glendale.
