Clarification on Open Enrollment: If your child has already previously been approved for Open Enrollment to Riverside, you do not need to do anything further. The message that went out yesterday is for new students who plan to open enroll in or Kindergarten students. To open enroll into Riverside, you will need to start the process at your home district with paperwork.
Tonight's baseball & softball games vs. Underwood have been moved up to a 4:30pm start time. Baseball is varsity first, with JV to follow & softball is varsity only.
