School Reopening Plan

Our Riverside Reopening Plan has all the details you need to know before sending your students back to school for in person learning.

Face coverings will be worn by all students until further notice.  Exceptions may be granted in accordance with the July 17, 2020 Governor's Order Regarding Face Coverings.  Face coverings will be worn by all employees.  An individual with a medical condition, mental health condition, or other disability that prevents wearing a face mask may be exempted from wearing a mask by submitting  the form found at the link below. For your information, face masks must cover the nose and mouth without openings, fit securely under the chin and against the nose and sides of face and cannot have an exhalation valve or vent.

Friday Schedule

Friday is considered a school day and will be treated as such. All students will be engaged in meaningful learning that they will be responsible for completing (Friday work will be graded by your student's teacher). Some of that learning may include online learning, assignments and activities that give students an opportunity to practice and solidify skills and concepts they’ve been working on in person, or working with the teacher individually, in small groups, or as a class either virtually or in person. Teachers will communicate in advance so parents know what the expectations are for their children each Friday. Please do not send your student to school on Friday without an appointment from their teacher.  Remember that visitors and parents are not allowed in the building past the office.

The teachers will be in meetings on Fridays from 8:00-10:00 and will be meeting with students either in person or online from 10:00-1:30. Your student's teacher will let you know ahead of time if they would like your student to come to the school for in person groups or what time your student should log on to meet with them virtually.

Please note that crossing guards are only available at limited crosswalks from about 10:00-10:30 a.m. and again from about 1:20-1:50  p.m.. Those times may not coordinate with your child’s appointment to work with his teacher or with our Grab-n-Go Lunch time. Please make sure a trusted adult is available to safely get your child to and from the school.

We will have lunch and breakfast for the next day available for our students on Fridays from 11:45-12:45. This will be grab-n-go style. Please enter the west cafeteria doors (same doors used for breakfast each morning).
