Ensuring the safety of our students and staff is our top priority when it comes to making decisions based on winter weather.
When a decision is made, it will be communicated to our families as quickly as possible. If school is delayed or canceled, the goal is to notify the community no later than 6:00 AM. If school will dismiss early, we hope to communicate that no later than noon.
More winter weather decision information can be found at: https://bit.ly/riversidecsdwinter ❄️
