Welcome To Riverside Elementary School
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?
Attached is information on Field Day. (Team colors, etc.)
DRESS CODE REMINDER- None of the following are permissible.
* Flip Flops or sandals without heel 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.
Updates and revisions to our school-wide campus safety program are being implemented. Please note that in order to minimize non-school personnel in the building, we will not be able to permit parents and guests access to the building without previously scheduled appointments. If you are dropping off an item for your child, you will be asked to leave it without entering the school building. As always, if you do not have identification, you will not be permitted access to the building. This is for the continued safety and security of the children and staff of our schools. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated.
