Riverside Elementary School

Principal's Message

Dear Parents, Students, and Community Members:

Welcome to the 2011-2012 school year at Riverside! This is going to be another great year of learning and growing together.   Our school motto is:  We are a Community of Learners.  Believe, Achieve, Soar!  

Each part of this motto really defines how we feel about education: 

• We are a Community of Learners – We learn best when we are learning from and with each other.  

• Believe – Everyone can learn, and when we believe in each other and ourselves, our learning has no boundaries.  

• Achieve – We can achieve anything and everything when we work together.  

• Soar – We need to keep goals and expectations high for everyone, by doing this we can soar to great heights.   

Riverside’s faculty and staff want all students to feel comfortable while they are school and will be working hard to make sure students are provided with a safe, nurturing school environment.  In addition Riverside’s PTA and Community Council encourage parents and community members take advantage of opportunities they have planned to involve parents and families in the school. Watch for some really fun things this year!

Our mission is to create lifelong learners who are positive members of society.  Thank you for being a member of Riverside’s “Community of Learners.”  We are looking forward to a fabulous school year!

Sincerely,



Mrs. Walters and the Faculty and Staff of Riverside Elementary
