Alright Chargers, let's try Homecoming again! It's time to bring back the Homecoming spirit and the fun that comes with it! ⚡️We won’t have week-long dress up days but...
Thursday: Pink Out at school and home volleyball triangular at the CR Site
Friday: BLUE & GOLD! 🔵🟡

The cleaner the building, the less often people think about who cleaned it. That’s the beauty of their work—it’s often unnoticed when things are going well, but their absence is immediately felt. At Riverside, we are fortunate to have an amazing group of people who help keep our facilities looking their best while also wearing many other hats throughout the day.

Today, we’re giving a BIG shoutout to the crew behind the clean! Thank you for the care, pride, and consistency you bring to Riverside and for keeping our facilities clean, welcoming, and safe!

Your work matters and we appreciate YOU!

Senior Families: The 2027–28 FAFSA is NOW OPEN!

The 2027–28 FAFSA opened earlier than the traditional October 1 date, which means seniors and their families can get started now.

A few things to know:

• What will you need? The student and appropriate parent contributor(s) will each need their own StudentAid.gov account. Have Social Security numbers (if applicable) and information about current assets available. Most federal tax information is transferred directly from the IRS, so you typically will not need to manually enter information from your tax return.

• It may not take as long as you think! The simplified online FAFSA can often be completed in around 15 minutes if you have the information you need ready to go.

Completing the FAFSA is an important step for students planning to attend college or another eligible postsecondary program next year. It determines eligibility for federal financial aid and may also be required for certain state, college, and scholarship opportunities. Remember, Nebraska law LB201 St. 79-729 now requires seniors to submit the FAFSA or an opt out form as a graduation requirement.

Senior families, this is one more thing you can officially check off the list! ✅ If you have questions please reach out to Mrs. Wood at 308-358-0640.

Today Riverside FBLA attended the Fall Leadership Conference at UNK. Students were able to learn about becoming leaders, reaching out to others, and preparing others to replace their leadership from renowned keynote speaker, Patti Hendrickson. Students also attended various leadership workshops.

The opposing team has contacted us and will need to forfeit Friday's football game. Therefore, the game has been canceled. More details to come regarding the scheduled Homecoming activities. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
