Dear Parents and Guardians,
It is hard to believe that it is already November and almost
time for parent teacher conferences!
Parent Teacher Conferences are a wonderful opportunity to meet with your
child’s teacher(s) to learn how your child is progressing academically and
socially in school. The dates for conferences are November 15 and 16. Students
will have lunch and be dismissed at 11:20
both days. We hope to have 100% of our parents/guardians attend conferences
this year. Please call Riverton at 874-8210 if you need to schedule or
reschedule your child’s conference.
Community Resource
Fair
On Thursday afternoon during conferences, Riverton will be
holding a Community Resource Fair. At the
Community Resource Fair, food, clothing, supplies, and other resource
information will be provided for free to any family that visits. The Community Resource Fair will be in the
cafeteria from 12:00 to 5:00.
Book Fair
The Book Fair will also be happening during conferences and
will be located in the Media Center. Come and shop for some wonderful books for
your child and/or your child’s class. Thank you to PTO volunteers for
organizing the Book Fair. A portion of all sales from the Book Fair goes directly
into supporting Riverton School!
Flu Clinic
One of the best ways to prevent the flu is to get a flu shot
every year. Riverton
will be holding a Flu Clinic on Wednesday, November 14th for those
students whose parents have submitted permission forms. If you would like your
child to have a flu shot, parents need to fill out the form completely and
return it to the school. Please be assured that if you have not returned
the form, your child will not be given a flu shot. Teachers will remind students
to pass in the returned flu permission forms, but be aware that sometimes the
forms do not get passed in. Please feel free to call and check to make
sure your child's form has been turned in. Our goal is for every child to be
protected against the flu this year!
Lost and Found
Just a friendly reminder to please check the Lost and Found
for your child’s missing items. Lost and Found is located toward the back of
the front lobby. Remember to sign in with the office if going to the Lost and
Found area during school hours. Thank
you!
Morning Arrival Time And Building Entry
Please know that even
with the arrival of cold weather,
children are not allowed to enter
the building
until 8:05am, unless your
child attends Rec. Thank you!
