Today we held our monthly Senior Citizen luncheon. Our kitchen staff served chicken parmesan, Ms. Longbrake made desserts for our guests to enjoy, Mrs. Harshbarger picked out Christmas gifts from The Rusty Crow, and finally Mrs. Noah had 6th graders perform Christmas carols as entertainment! It was a great time of laughter, fun, and serving our community! We want to wish our Senior Citizens a Merry Christmas!



The Holiday Season can be very difficult for those who have lost a loved one, so Riverside's Interact Club decided to sponsor a Remembrance Tree Project. Interact students guided students and staff to create Christmas ornaments in memory of their loved ones. ❤️

Parents,
Please help us keep our fleet of Chromebooks nice and well protected. We would like them to last at least 4 or 5 years. Please make sure your student is carrying their chromebook in the case provided to them at the beginning of the year. Repair costs are only getting more expensive. If your student's case needs to be fixed or replaced, please have them come see me. We want to make sure the chromebook your child gets every year is in good shape and free of damage. Please talk with your student about keeping their chromebook protected. Thank you.
Mr. DeMotte

The second graders really enjoyed listening to Mrs. Shipp read them a Christmas story!




Yesterday my kinders enjoyed a pretty sweet math lesson! We've been working hard on number sense through 10 frames & we incorporated this focus into building a gingerbread house! We drew numbers (& learned new vocab) to determine amount of candy we could use and had so much fun!










Today is Day 2 of our 12 Days of Self-Care Selfie Challenge for all Staff and High School students - "Don't Be a Grinch! Show Gratitude." These are some of today's submissions from Mrs. Hodge, Miss Steinke, Miss Borchers, and Ms. Robison. ❤️
