When you’re young, your brain is more vulnerable to addiction. Using substances early in life can drastically increase the risk of addiction in adulthood. Drug use can also exacerbate mental health issues.
During Red Ribbon Week, we urge our students to stand strong and say no to drugs and alcohol. If you need support, stop by your counselor’s office at any time. They’re here to help! 👍
Volleyball heads to CAM for the Regional Semi-Finals tonight at 7 pm!

Mr. Johannsen has been there for both of Tavens breaks at school. He sat and held this broken leg for 45 minutes while they waited for me to get to school and the ambulance crew to get him loaded up and to the hospital. He just has always been in the right place to help take care of Taven. He has also been a great influence on Taven. One of the pictures of them is after a rough day wrestling for Taven sometimes saying nothing at all just being there is the best coaching.
The Moore family definitely appreciates all he has done for our kids.
Join in the fun! Ms. McQueen and Mr. Ruppelt are taking Riverside students (grades 8-12) to Peru in July 2025 - it is going to be an amazing adventure! Visit and make sure to register for the meeting TODAY to learn more: https://bit.ly/46N4FLH

I have know Mr. Crum since he did his student teaching here at Riverside. I got to know him more at the elementary while he was one of the third grade teachers. Since becoming a principal, he still has a great love of teaching, learning, and the students love seeing him in the halls and classrooms. He is a down to earth, easy to talk to, and gets along with everyone. The students look up to him as well. Thank you for helping us through your first few years as a principal, keep up the great work!!!
