Riverside XC did a great job today at state cross country. Carly 21st, Brody 41st, Mason 47th, and Dawson 64th. Proud to be a Bulldog! #WeRRiverside
Mr. Kroon is always very supportive of any ideas that I have or suggest. He has the best interest of the kids at heart.
Best of luck to the Bulldogs competing in Fort Dodge today at the Class 1A State Cross Country Meet. The girls run at 2:00pm and the boys at 2:45pm. 🌟
Mr. Crum -- Though I've only been working in the district for a couple of months, I've appreciated how welcoming you've been! I'm in a unique spot where I get to see the other side of things in terms of the challenges that administrators face on a daily basis, and I'd like to recognize and acknowledge how challenging your position can be at times (not everyone gets to see all of the angles/the big picture). It's very clear how much you care about the kids... I have yet to meet an elementary student who doesn't love you! :) Thanks for all you do!
Remember families: There will be NO SCHOOL on Friday, October 27. #WeRRiverside
Proud of our Dawgs! Tough loss tonight against Ankeny Christian. The girls played their hearts out. Proud to be a Bulldog! #WeRRiverside
Mr Johannsen is a great leader and administrator. He's professional, yet approachable. He's an excellent communicator and collaborator. He makes me feel valued and appreciated. I'm thankful he chose to be a Bulldog!
MHS families: the HS Student Council would like to help the Oakland Food Pantry this week as they are running short on items.

Student council will still be hosting the Food Drive the first week of December (more details to come soon) and wanted to help now as there is a need. Thank you all in advance for any donations!

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! 👍
