💙First Day of School August 1st🧡
Dear Riverside Families,
Welcome to a new school year. I am excited to share in this journey with our Riverside families. We have been working behind the scenes this summer to ensure we have a successful year. Each month you will receive a newsletter highlighting the events for the month, student successes and general information that is relevant for our families.
It is going to be a great year and I look forward to meeting our families.

Event Information
Back to School Night
Back to School night is Monday, July 29th from 5-7 PM. Students and parents will get to meet their teacher in the classrooms (class lists will be posted) and drop off school supplies. You will confirm transportation which helps us ALL get off to a great start. Families will check-in in the gym and receive your car rider number (even if you don’t plan to be a car rider, we will assign you a number and give you a car rider tag). We will have computers set up in the office for those that need to register still or apply for Free and Reduced lunch. Please be sure to stop by the PTO table in the rotunda. We hope you will be able to join us for this important event.

Transportation Department
FAST FACTS:
- Students opting to ride the bus can only have ONE pick-up location and ONE drop-off location. They are not allowed to rotate between different stops, unless on a one week on/off plan due to living arrangements.
- NO TEMPORARY BUS PASSES ARE ALLOWED. If a need arises for a child to get dropped off/picked up at any place other than their assigned stop, the parent/guardian needs to make those arrangements.
- Please have your child at the assigned bus stop 5 minutes prior to the scheduled time in the mornings. If a bus is at the stop at the correct time (10 min. window) and the child misses the bus, we will not instruct the bus driver to go back and pick up your child.
- If your child is in preschool or utilizes SPED transportation, we require that a responsible greeter be present at the bus stop and you will need to contact your school to set up transportation.
