Please email a photo and a brief description of what they’ve been up to since graduation to sanderson@riverside.k12.ia.us.

Thank you for helping us highlight the amazing things our Riverside graduates are achieving! 🌟

We’re committed to breaking down barriers to mental health care. That’s why we’ve partnered with Hazel to offer bilingual therapy in over 30 languages, ensuring all students at Riverside can connect with a licensed therapist who understands their culture and language.

In therapy, your child will gain essential tools to succeed in school and in life, such as:

✓ Improving communication
✓ Building confidence
✓ Enhancing coping skills
✓ Fostering healthy relationships

All students—regardless of immigration status—can access virtual therapy at no cost to families.

Through Coaches vs. Cancer, we honor survivors, remember loved ones we’ve lost, and raise awareness and funds to support cancer research, patient services, and hope for a cure.
