Welcome To Riverside Elementary School
****June 19- End of Year Awards ceremony 8:30 am ****
Dear Partners in Learning, 6/1/17
June is an exciting time at Riverside Elementary School. With just a hand full of days remaining, the school is a whirl wind of activities. We have plenty of end of the year field trips and fun events. If your child is in grades 3-5, have you checked Genesis for an academic update?
DRESS Code REMINDER- None of the following are permissible.
* Flip Flops or sandals without heal straps (For safety's sake - students walk in close proximity on our stairs)
* Shirts, blouses, dresses, etc. that display bare back or midriffs, (halter tops or half tops) have "cut-out " sections or are see-through.
* Inappropriately short shorts, dresses, or skirts.
Reminder, we are asking you to NOT bring any forgotten items to school for your child after school has begun for the day. With this rule, we are hoping to both encourage responsibility and support our security measures further.
