🌞 Friday Recess Fun at Riverdale! 💙🤍

Our Riverdale 5th graders wrapped up their Friday with some fun on the playground! It’s always great to see our students enjoying the fresh air, spending time with friends, and making memories together.

Recess gives our students a chance to burn off some energy, share some laughs, and enjoy being kids! We love seeing our 5th graders making the most of their time outside! 🦅

Keep soaring, 5th graders! 💙🤍

Fall season here we come! 👻🎃🧹

Today, Mr. Speyer’s elementary STEAM class teamed up with Mr. Brown’s high school robotics class for some awesome cross-grade collaboration! 🤖 Students worked together to build robots on top of Roomba vacuums, combining creativity, engineering, and problem-solving in a fun, hands-on way!

Nothing better than seeing students of all ages learning from each other and bringing their ideas to life! 👏🎃🤖🕷️

🏈🏐 PBIS Fun at Riverdale Middle School! 💙🤍

This past Friday, our middle school students enjoyed some outdoor fun as part of our Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) program! Students spent the final 15 minutes of lunch and their entire SOAR period outside playing football, volleyball, and enjoying other activities with friends.

At Riverdale, PBIS focuses on encouraging positive behavior, building relationships, and creating a safe and supportive school environment. We believe in recognizing students for making good choices, showing respect, and being responsible.

It’s great to see our students having fun, building friendships, and making positive memories together! Keep up the great work, Falcons! 🦅
