Riverside Public Schools

Our Riverside team is proactively working to keep our students, staff, and community healthy and safe. Provided is the information we would like to pass along to our patrons regarding COVID-19. If you are ill with the listed symptoms or been in contact with someone who was exposed to COVID-19, you are strongly encouraged to contact the Loup Basin Public Health Department at 308-346-5795.

Riverside Public schools will postpone community Speech night until further notice. The NSAA is aware of the fluidity of COVID-19 and the potential impact hosting statewide events could have regarding the on-going public health threat. Many of our member schools are making decisions in the best interest of their student participants, coaches and communities. The NSAA is regretfully suspending district and state speech contests until further notice.

The Launch and STEM students cleaned out the greenhouse today.
