A Note From the Principal
Good Morning River Hawk Families,
I'm not sure about all of you, but how is Valentine's Day already upon us? Our ASB and RioTV students have worked together with our Meaningful Monday Team and will host an activity about Self Love during Monday's Advisory period. Be sure to ask your student Monday night what they wrote on their heart paper for the activity. Take some time to encourage your student about the things they should love about themselves, while sharing what you love about yourself! Experts indicate adults modeling self-love, passes on positive self-care habits to the children in their lives. For RioTV's Self Love interview of staff and students, check HERE on Monday!
