Riverside senior Jayla Davenport became the school’s all-time leading scorer for any girl in school history. Davenport scored 14 points tonight against Perry County to move her career total to 1,380 points. The previous record was held by Tabitha Brasher Camper. Camper, who graduated from RHS in 1999, scored 1,372 points during her career at Riverside High School.

Congratulations to Coach Frost for being selected Coach of the Year by the Tennessee Football Coaches Association.

Students can bring a parent note to have permission to leave early. The parent

notes must be signed by a parent/guardian and have a phone number to call so we can verify the

note. These notes do not count toward the three parent notes students are allowed during the

semester. These will be turned in to the 1st period teacher and collected by the office admin at

the beginning of 1st Period. (In the event you have students who only have to take finals during

the 2nd Period of the day, please send those to the office at the beginning of 2nd Period).

During the EOC testing window which starts the week after Thanksgiving our

school schedule will be modified for our students. In order to get all EOC and

CASE testing completed in the morning our school Administrative team have

come up with an alternate schedule. It goes as follows:

--If a student is scheduled to take an End of Course Exam or a CASE test they must

report to school at the regular time (7:45). Testing will be conducted from 7:50-

9:50. After testing our school day will begin. Busses will continue to run at regular

time.

--On days that a student does not have to take and End of Course Exam or a CASE

test they do not have to report to school until 9:50. At 10:00 they will be counted

tardy.

Please note that busses will run at regular time and if a student rides a bus and

does not have a test to take they will sit in the gym until school begins at 9:50.

The school will be open at regular time for students who do not have a ride to

school and will need to be here at 7:45.

This modified schedule is meant to accommodate testing so that our students are

fresh and ready to do well on tests. If students skip their appropriate test day and

numerous makeups have to be conducted because the students want to wait to

take tests then the modified schedule will be done away with and testing will be

conducted throughout the school day with no option to come in later.

Testing will run from November 28-December 12. We will be on our regular schedule November 13th!
