Dear Riverside Families,
It’s hard to believe we’re already turning the calendar to May. April seemed to fly by in a blur of activity and excitement! One of the highlights of the month was our 3rd Quarter Brewer Trip, and what a fantastic day it was.. Our students had a great time cheering on the Brewers, hanging out with friends, and enjoying all the classic ballpark treats. Personally, I wrapped up that day with 22,000 steps, but every step was worth it to see the smiles on students’ faces—especially those grinning ear-to-ear with baseball helmet nachos and cheesy fries in hand!
Now, as we head into the final stretch of the school year, we’re looking forward to one of our most anticipated events: the Mount Olympus Trip on Wednesday, June 4th. This trip is a favorite for many students and a great way to celebrate a year of hard work and perseverance. In order to attend, students must meet the following eligibility requirements from Monday, April 14th through Wednesday, June 4th:
Eligible students will receive notification of their eligibility through their student email on Monday 5/19. Sign up will 5/19-5/23. Eligibility requirements will continue to be monitored through the day of the trip for students who have signed up. Admins do reserve the right to withhold the trip from a student for any behavior or academic encounters. Contact Danielle Hansen with any questions.
As we support our students in meeting these expectations, your partnership at home is more important than ever. If you haven’t already done so, we encourage you to enable Skyward Parent Notifications to help monitor your child’s grades and attendance. This tool is an excellent way to stay informed and engaged.
If you need your Skyward Login, please contact Amanda Ristow.
Here’s how to turn on Skyward Notifications:
Log into your Skyward Family Access account.
Select “My Account” in the upper right corner.
Scroll to Notification Settings.
Check the boxes for the notifications you'd like to receive (grades, attendance, etc.).
Click Save.
As we close out the year, let’s continue working together to keep our students on track and finish strong.
Here’s to a strong and sunny finish to the school year!
Warmly,
Josh Barnett
Dean of Students
