Reminders

Good afternoon Riverside Families,

It is hard to believe that we are already to spring break next week although our short spurt of spring warm weather seems to have disappeared! Just a reminder that we have a full week this week and then school resumes on Tuesday, April 2.

This week is our annual Variety Show with almost 30 acts and a lot of talent! Students will perform the family show on Thursday evening at 6:30 p.m. in our gym and all are welcome! They will have a 2nd performance on Friday afternoon for the whole school. We are looking forward to it!

State testing begins this week in 4th grade with science and social studies testing. Please see below for more information.

Friday will be a College Colors Day so students should wear the colors of their classroom college. If you need anything, please feel free to reach out to me.

Respectfully,

Scott Walter

WI Forward State Testing

State testing begins this week in 4th grade and after spring break for all other students. You should have received a parent letter explaining the test and classroom teachers will communicate their individual schedules to families. Truly the best test prep is to attend school regularly and work hard every day which our students have been doing. Please make sure children get adequate sleep the night before and a good breakfast.

If students/families wish to practice, the Forward Exam Practice Test is available

for student at home at:

FORWARD PRACTICE TEST

Exam contact the Office of Educational

Accountability at osamail@dpi.wi.gov or visit

Headphones Needed

Sometimes at this point in the year, headphones begin to break down :( With state testing coming up at the end of March, please check with your child if he or she still has working headphones as they can use them on the test. Thank you!
