We have gotten some guidance about the use of Venmo for our student activities:
-Any money sent with teams must be donated to the booster club venmo account.
-Any venmo will have to have words and no emojis to go to the correct state event or it will go to the booster club general fund.
-All money donated via the booster club venmo will only be used for meals, and money will be sent with coaches with the understanding we need receipts for the money spent.
-Any person employed by the school in any way can not make a public plea for funds to be used for school events, so they cannot use their personal Venmo accounts to elicit funds for anything related to the school.


For the first time in school history, Riverside will host IHSAA Regional Duals on Tuesday, February 4th! The Bulldogs will wrestle the winner of the Regional Semifinal for a trip to State Duals in Coralville!


Congrats to our elementary Bulldogs of the Week!

Our elementary music teacher Ms. Biggs is the best. Today she worked with this 5th grade class on an engaging, hands on activity involving recognizing patterns and working together. Great job everyone.


Strong routines at home lead to success in school. 💪
Missing just 2 days a month, for any reason, is shown to negatively impact learning and graduation rates. Every Day Counts at Riverside!
If you or your family is experiencing difficulties creating routines and attending school, we encourage you to contact your child’s school office. We’d like to work with you to make a brighter future—one school day at a time! 🤝


This week is packed with JV and varsity basketball games! And, we cannot wait to cheer on our Bulldogs at the boys and girls wrestling meets. 🏀🤼
