2024-25 WLWV High School Calendar

Riverside HS Calendar

Any election season provides educators the opportunity to teach students about civics and democracy. In Oregon, classroom teachers, administrators and staff may not, while on the job during working hours, promote or oppose specific candidates, political committees or ballot measures. When political questions enter the classroom, our staff will remain neutral and objective while assuring our students that a diverse democracy can work, live, learn and play together. In West Linn-Wilsonville, we will continue to promote school cultures of welcome, belonging, empathy, respect and kindness first. We are stronger together and proud of our communities.

Not Who We Thought, written by RHS Theatre students. One performance only on Friday, November 1st at 6:30pm. Warning, there will be some high emotion moments in the production and use of stage blood. Tickets are $5 and available at the door or in advance in our school Webstore.

Mrs. Roberts Language Arts 9 classes will be attending a field trip to the Oregon Jewish Museum and Center for Holocaust Education on NOVEMBER 6. This will tie into their reading of the book Night.

Students are expected to be completely caught up on all of their assignments in all classes in order to attend. Mrs. Roberts will do a grade check on Oct. 31 in order to give a final head count to the museum representative. Please return permission slips by Thursday, October 31.

If you have any questions, please contact Mrs. Roberts at robertss@wlwv.k12.or.us

On Wednesday, November 13th at 6pm we will hold an Information Night for families interested in learning more about what we offer at Riverside High School. Whether you are looking to transfer at the end of Semester 1 or gathering information about your options for next year, our information night will be a great opportunity to hear about our IB program, CTE pathways, Athletics and Activities, and the inviting culture here at RHS. Please share with any families you know that have students in high school or 8th grade. Word of mouth and current student/family testimonials are the best!

In addition to our usual bin full of sweatshirts and water bottles, we also have a collection of smaller items at the front desk. Drop by if you recognize anything in these photos!
