Riverside Roadrunners
September 2024
Can you believe it?
Can you believe we are already one month into our school year? I am so proud of our students and their perseverance to learn our Riverside expectations for a successful school community. We have already started our fall sports and selected our 4th and 5th grade student leaders. We cannot wait to see what the rest of the quarter has in store for our Roadrunners.
Thank you to all of our car rider parents for your patience and efficiency. Our line is getting more efficient each day. Just a reminder please do not get out of your car to unbuckle or buckle there is an area in the lot for this. We will try and have as many adults to help in the morning, please continue to work with your child to do this on their own.
