Fill the Boot Fun Run
Riojas Parents and Families! We’re only ONE WEEK AWAY from kicking off the Riojas Fill the Boot Fun Run and PLEDGING IS NOW OPEN! Register online at FUNRUN.COM and start getting pledges! Next Tuesday, our 2-week fundraising program will officially begin on campus, and we’re so excited! We’ll start with a Pep Rally, and then your family will gather pledges and enter them on FUNRUN.COM. At the end, every student will participate in the Riojas Fill the Boot Fun Run!
This year, our goal is to raise $30,000 for Field Trips, Educational Equipment, and the Start of a Track Fund and we need your help! Please begin thinking about friends and family who could pledge your student for the Riojas Fill the Boot Fun Run. Look for a Pledgebook to come home on Tuesday, October 15th with more information. And don’t forget to save the Fun Run Date—October 24th—on your calendar. You’re invited to come out and cheer on our students! More details to come. Thank you for supporting Riojas Elementary!

Daily Conversations With Your Child
Questions for Great Conversations with Your Child
- What book did your teacher read out loud today? What was the story about?
- Who did you play with at recess today?
- What did you learn about in Science?
- What math strategies did you try today?
- Which specials class (Art, Music, PE) did you go to today? What did you do there?
- Did you go to the library? What books did you see?
Changes In Going Home
If you are changing the way your child goes home, you must communicate that to the front office staff by stopping by the office or calling the office. Please do not send an email. Our teachers are busy teaching and helping students and often do not check their email throughout the day. The office communicates changes to our staff close to the end of the school day, but all changes must be reported to the office before 1pm. This helps us ensure a safe dismissal for all students.
