Principal's Message
Welcome Back! The beginning of the year always holds such excitement and promise. As educators, its a time where we open our doors and hearts to partner with you in achieving the hopes and dreams you have for our students. I think I speak for our entire school team when I say, it is a blessing and a privilege to serve your families.
With the start of a new school year also comes new routines and busy schedules. I encourage you to browse through this newsletter carefully to make sure you don't miss out on opportunities to get involved in our community. We look forward to seeing you around the neighborhood!
And by the way...Our new playground is being constructed as I type this. Be sure to swing by the playground next time you're at Riverside for a quick look at the progress.
Class lists are posted on Thursday at 4:30.
