Pirate Spirit Day Fun!







Today we celebrated our Pirate of the Week, Hunter, and enjoyed a visit with his momma and sister. We learned more about him as we listened to his Time Line, asked him questions, saw his fav monster truck he brought in for Show and Tell, and enjoyed a special snack. ❤️🏴☠️💙





Riverside Junior High Volleyball Fans,
This is a reminder that only TRC Passes can be accepted at tonight tournament game. We cannot accept any Riverside passes. Thank you for your understanding.

A big shout-out to Mrs. Hess and Mrs. Fauley for volunteering their time to get some student-athletes caught up on their assignments! This is a great example of our staff willing to go above and beyond for our students.


Spirit week in second grade!


This week's Staff Spotlight is Devon Hodge. Devon is a giant asset to our district. Fixing everything from pencil sharpeners to sprinkler heads. There is nothing this guy can not repair. His knowledge is endless. We are very blessed that he is a Pirate. Thanks for all you do Devon! -Job title and description of what you do. Maintenance – Keeping the campus Grounds and building in great shape. We want our students and community to be proud of our school. -How long have you been with Riverside? 8 Years -Family My Family consists of my AMAZING and BEAUTIFUL wife Tammy and our two wonderful sons, Tyler and Bryce. We also have the two most amazing Daughter-in-laws, Alyssa and Katie, who gave us the six most beautiful grandbabies in the world. Hadley -8, Kade -6, Charlotte -4, Scarlet -3, Ridley -2 and Willow -1. These Babies are my world! We are also excited to have a 7th on the way. -Hobbies Spending time with my Grandchildren. Love watching Ohio State. My hobbies also include video games and golfing. Beating Bryce and Tyler on summer Friday matches never gets old. -Favorites (food, holiday, etc) My favorite Holiday is Thanksgiving. I love having meals with my family. -Best Co-workers past or Present. Why? Ron Popp was my favorite co-worker from the past. We had so much fun working together. I lost him to ALS a few years ago and I miss him dearly. My favorite co-workers now are my two sons, Tyler and Bryce. What an amazing opportunity for a father to work with is sons. I am the most blessed man alive.

Seventh graders from Bellefontaine, Benjamin Logan, Indian Lake, West Liberty Salem and host Riverside Schools have an opportunity October 24th to talk with representatives from many different professions happening here in Logan County.
Youth Development Liaison Karen Sorreles from the Midwest Regional Educational Service Center organizes the event in conjunction with the Logan County Chamber of Commerce. This event began in 2016 as a result of a recommendation made by the Logan County Collaborative. The goal of Career Day is for students to get hands-on exposure to well-known occupations, including many positions they may not have heard about or come in contact within their daily routines.
Students will have the chance to ask questions and get to know local people working in the areas of law enforcement, digital marketing, agriculture, construction, dental, engineering, automotive, various medical fields, & banking, to name a few. We truly appreciate the community volunteers taking time out to help the future workforce explore careers. Students were assigned different tasks to learn more about careers they may have an interest in for their future. Students have the opportunity to interview the representatives, asking about typical work days, required education and what they enjoy about their job?
Extensive career exploration is now an important part of the required curriculum for middle school students which includes guest class speakers in the 6th grade all the way up to job shadowing in the eighth grade. The Logan County Career Day is part of planting that seed so students can start to really consider their career path and what it takes to reach their personal career goals.




REMINDER!!! The Powder Puff and Reverse Court has been moved to Thursday morning. This has been done to allow out Girls Golf Team to participate. They are competing in the District Golf Tournament on Wednesday.
