🎉 Positive Referral Celebration! 🎉
We had another great group of Riverdale Middle School students recognized this week for earning Positive Referrals from their teachers! 💙🦅
These students were noticed for making great choices, working hard, showing kindness, being responsible, and helping make Riverdale a positive place to learn and grow.
Each student received a Positive Referral certificate and got to choose a full-size candy bar or treat as a small way to celebrate their efforts! 🍫👏
Way to go, Falcons! We are proud of you and appreciate the positive example you are setting for others. Keep it up! 💙🤍🩶
