Riverside will be hosting our first ever Grandparent’s Day this spring on May 1, 2024!
Our program will include activities and skills students are learning or working on in music, PE, and guidance. The event will be at the CES Gymnasium starting with K-2 at 9:00am and 3-5 at 10:15am.
We would also like to invite your students’ grandparents to come and eat lunch with your student on that day in their prospective building. If students do not have a grandparent to help take part they may ask you as their parent or even a family friend to be in attendance.
If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to Ms. Biggs at kbiggs@riverside.k12.ia.us.
This morning we got to recognize Abe Schechinger for advancing to National Merit Scholar Finalist! In the upcoming months, the list of 15,000 students across the nation will be whittled down to about 7,000 students that will be recognized at National Merit Scholarship winners! Great work Abe, and good luck in the upcoming months!

Last month, a challenge was issued to the students to nominate an adult outside of the building that has had a tremendous impact on our students and school. George Volz was immediately nominated. George's desire to promote and advocate for youth is unmatched, and his efforts are greatly appreciated! Thanks for being who you are George, and stopping by today to accept recognition and talk to the students!

🌟 We welcome Kajsa Myers to the Riverside team as a 6-12 Special Education Instructor! She is excited to meet the students and families in Riverside, and we are excited to have her!
"I grew up in Omaha, but moved to Oakland after I married my husband who grew up here. We have two kids and are so excited to raise our family in the same community he grew up in. I have a Bachelor's degree in special education from UNO and am working on a Masters in Educational Diagnostician from Northwest Missouri State. With two kids under three, my free time looks like listening to audiobooks, rereading Harry Potter, or trying to watch a movie after the kids go to bed." - Ms. Myers
