Before/After Care - Use the link for information about our EMP (Early Morning Program) or EDP (Early Day Program). LINK for EMP/EDP

Fall Celebrations - We will not be doing anything school wide to celebrate the fall season, but individual classrooms may have seasonal activities planned. Please check for updates with your child's teacher.

Morning/Afternoon Procedures - When dropping off and picking up students from Riverfront please make sure students are getting in and out of the car curb side to the school. Students should not be crossing any street without a crossing guard. Remember at 7:55am each morning the doors will close at the arrival areas and students will need to go to the main office to get a late pass.

Quarantine/Virtual Learning - If your child is placed on quarantine by the school we will set up virtual learning as soon as possible. Please note that it could take a day to communicate this information to our staff. If you receive information from outside of the school that your child needs to be quarantined contact the nurse immediately. Prior to virtual instruction beginning, we will need to verify all information related to the quarantine. Please remember to keep your child home if they aren't feeling well and continue to contact our school nurse, Ms. Leitinger with all updates at jleitinger@florence.k12.nj.us.

The Burlington County Prosecutor's Office held its annual PROCOPS (Prosecutor’s Recognition of Civilians and Other Public Servants) awards banquet Wednesday night and our very own 8th grade student, Simeon Warthen was honored with the Citizen's Hero Award for seeking help for a relative who became unresponsive a medical emergency.
