Happy New Year Riverside Families,

We hope everyone had a fantastic break and we're looking forward to 2025 and the second half of the school year!

The After-School Clubs team has been hard at work on winter clubs and will be announcing clubs soon.  First Grade families will be hosting the annual Riverside pancake breakfast on January 25th. 5th graders are again invited to volunteer as servers for the event.  Information and sign-up links are on Konstella. 

At December's general meeting, we hosted a Q&A about the PPS January Bond Referendum, that discussion can be found here.  At this Friday's meeting, BOE members will be available to chat during coffee and we'll have a brief opportunity to ask questions about the referendum and more during the meeting - plus we'll receive an update on the new PPS Superintendent.  To help us with food planning, please RSVP if you think you'll attend.  We look forward to seeing everyone in the new year! Important dates and links are listed below.

Thank you,

Shep & Joy
