Reminders

Good afternoon Riverside Families,

What a great turnout for our fall conferences! We certainly appreciate and need the partnership. If you were not able to schedule a conference, please know you can contact your child's teacher at any time to do that. We certainly want to keep you updated along the way. Conferences always serve as a great time to get everyone on the same page and learn multiple perspectives. Students also see it that way too :)

It will be another great week ahead as we honor our Veterans on Thursday of this week during the community wide Veterans Day Program at 1:00 p.m. in our gymnasium. You are welcome to stop by as our 4th grade students will be singing a few patriotic songs during the program. We will have a red, white and blue spirit day across the building that day.

Friday will be a Riverside Spirit Jeans day so wear your Rocket gear of Falls gear loud and proud.

If you need anything, please feel free to reach out to me. It will be a great week ahead!

Respectfully,

Scott Walter

Learning Journals Coming Home

All Riverside classrooms will be sending home students' learning journals this coming week if they already didn't make it home during conferences. Students all have learning journals that they add to throughout the year to keep track of their progress on grade level learning targets and personal goals. We will be sending them home a few times this year school-wide in order to keep communicating with families about progress and keep the conversations going. Please see the attached documents for more information and also some discussion prompts that you can use with your child as you look it over with him/her this coming week. Thank you!
