Dear River Mill Families,

As we wrap up this incredible school year, we want to extend our heartfelt thanks to all of our River Mill families for your support, partnership, and care throughout the year. It has truly been a joy watching your children grow, learn, and thrive!


A big thank you to the many families who came out to help with Field Day—it was such a fun and energetic way to celebrate the end of the year with our students, and we couldn’t have done it without you! Your enthusiasm and willingness to volunteer make such a difference.


To our 5th grade families, thank you for helping us honor our students during the promotion ceremony. It was a special and memorable event as we celebrated this important milestone. A huge shoutout to our incredible PTO for all the time, energy, and creativity they poured into the decorations and event setup—everything looked beautiful and truly added to the celebration.


This school year has been filled with learning, growth, laughter, and memories that we will carry with us. We’re proud of what our students have accomplished and grateful for the strong community we’ve built together.


Wishing you all a fun, restful, and safe summer break. We can’t wait to welcome everyone back in the fall!

Lindsey Fullenwider, Principal

Below is a list of fun and engaging summer literacy activities for your child to enjoy! Continuing to read, write, and explore language over the summer helps maintain the growth your child made during the school year and sets them up for a strong start in the fall. Even a little bit of literacy each day can make a big difference—building vocabulary, comprehension, and confidence.

At River Mill, we want to ensure every student has the best opportunity to learn and grow each day. Recently, we’ve noticed an increase in tardies and early pick-ups, and we want to remind families how important it is for students to be at school on time and stay for the full day. Arriving late can cause students to miss important instruction, while leaving early means they may not get the full benefit of their learning time. Every minute in the classroom matters! We understand that occasional appointments and emergencies happen, but whenever possible, please schedule these outside of school hours. Thank you for your support in making sure your child gets the most out of their school day!

Attendance Matters Attendance Matters

Did you know that many of our youngest students miss about 10% of the school year—around 14 days, or just two days a month? This level of chronic absenteeism in elementary school can predict lower test scores and challenges with retention in later grades. Every day and every minute of school matters, contributing to your child's growth and success! Please help us support your child's learning by ensuring they attend school every day and arrive on time. Thank you for partnering with us to build strong habits for lifelong learning!
