The Riley Cookbook

Exciting news.. The 50th Anniversary Cookbooks are in and will be sent home early this week! We are so thrilled to share Riley's first cookbook with you, our wonderful community. It was a beautiful group effort and will be something to treasure for years to come. Thank you to all who contributed to and ordered a copy of this special keepsake.

Please check the book for flaws, damage, etc. as a few books have had mistakes. If you need a replacement, please contact Michelle to return the damaged book and initiate a replacement.

What's for Lunch?!

Shared in jest of course.. but we all know it's funny because it's true! Come late May it's inevitable to experience a certain sort of lunch packing senioritis.. BUT! The children are moving and growing, and goodness are they hungry because of it.

We're all fatigued with lunch packing at this point but with the busy schedule we have in the weeks ahead we have to push through with hearty lunches and wholesome snacks in our final days on campus. Please help us keep everyone well fed and happy!

Friendly note: nutritious protein, vegetable, and fruit based snacks/lunches are far more sustaining than most highly marketed processed foods. Not only that, the wrappers of these convenience foods wind up all over campus. Thank you for your help in keeping the children of Riley well fueled and the campus clean and free of single use wrappers.

Hurricane Island Dispatch

Porpoise sightings, hikes, setting green crab boxes, sorting spat bags and counting scallops, measuring lobsters, facing design challenges and “crossing to safety”….. the Hurricane Island Center for Science and Leadership gave us at the Riley School an amazing two days that we won't soon forget! We're so proud of the energy, resilience, curiosity and collaboration our children demonstrated …. And it was just plain fun, too!
