The Riverside Horticulture class is planning a hanging basket sale for this coming April and would like to get an interest count from those in the community. There will be 5 different baskets designed by the students.
Each will contain a mixture of 3 different types
of flowers and will cost $30. If you are interested in purchasing 1 or more baskets please contact LaTravia Dobson by email at latravia.dobson@riversideps.org, on the Riverside
Facebook page, or by calling the school at 308-358-0640.
If you have empty metal hanging baskets lying around, like the picture below, that you no longer want, the Horticulture class would gladly accept them and give you 20% off of 1 hanging basket.
Thank you again for your support!

Wow! It has been great to see the kids and be back at school! As we reflect on the first week, we will have to make a change at the Spalding site. Starting Monday, all Spalding Site students will be required to wear a face-covering when transitioning between classes and/or when leaving their room. We have worked very hard keeping pods separated, but it has been difficult with the layout of the building. They WILL NOT be required when they are in their classrooms with their pod, just when they leave that room to transition to another room or leave their classroom for any reason. Thank you for being flexible. If you have questions contact Mrs. Nordhues or Ms. Kaczor.
A little 🌞 and a little fun to end the day! Our staff is embracing the nice weather (with some well placed shade trees). And our sophomores are really embracing the Spanish culture while learning 🇪🇸. Great way to end the week!

ACT is officially scheduled to be given to the Senior Class, free of cost, at Riverside High School on September 22. This test will replace the April postponed test due to Covid Closures. There will NO LONGER be a Writing portion on the test during this test administration.
I encourage you all to continue studying, or start studying, to freshen up on the information within the test.
You will also still be able to hopefully take an additional test this upcoming winter/spring, if you desire to take it an additional time as well. This would have to be scheduled by you at Boone Central or another location that hosts the ACT on Saturdays during the National Test Dates. Here are a few new National Test Dates to be on the look out for at local test locations (photo attached):

Attention 20-21 Junior and Senior students. Wayne State College is offering Fall 2020 online dual credit courses however, their registration deadline has moved up to July 24. Please check your emails for more information or contact Ms. Choyeski with questions #BeACharger
The Nebraska Schools Activities Association has changed requirements for Pre-Participation Physical Examinations for the 20-21 academic year. Due to the overwhelming demand on the healthcare system in Nebraska, it was clear to the NSAA Sports Advisory Committee that the system as a whole would not have the capacity to meet original requirements in place by the NSAA for all athletes to have physicals administered in the normal time allotment.
As a result, all physicals for students entering grades 8, 10, 11 & 12 that were accepted during the 19-20 academic year, will remain valid for the 20-21 academic year. This is a one year exemption only and those students who are entering 7th and 9th grades will still be required to get a physical prior to their first athletic practice. Those physicals must be administered no earlier than May 1, 2020!
If you have any questions regarding this matter feel free to contact the high school office at 308-358-0640, or by emailing will.wragge@riversideps.org
There is still time to sign up for the youth football camp for July 27, 28, and 29. If you have any questions please reach out to Coach Valasek.
