River Ridge Elementary -

Mrs. Cleveland's class visited the library today as part of their Community Helpers unit. They shared a story with Mrs. Barker and checked out books! 📕

Having fun in Innovations! Students are learning how to properly put on lab aprons and safety glasses/goggles so we can conduct our first experiment.

We're on the spot with Ms. Bulleman's class as they practice writing their names with dots.

Officer Kelly came to Mrs. Cleveland's class and read to the students about Police Officers for their Community Helpers unit.

Mrs. Sheriff and Mrs. Bailey’s classes had a fantastic start to week three today by beginning V.I.P. student of the week, outdoor lunch with the teacher, and a beautiful day playing four square and hopscotch at recess. We are ready for the fall y’all!!

Celebrating Tuesday with twinning!

River Ridge is excited to welcome our new School Resource Officer, Jason Kelly. Officer Kelly is already busy meeting students and making sure our school is safe and secure. If you see him in the car line or out and about, give him a warm RRES welcome!

Great news! Grownups can join students for lunch in the cafeteria starting on September 2nd. You will need to sign in as a visitor in the office and sit at the family tables in the cafeteria with your student.

Teamwork makes the dream work! Mrs. Huss' class worked together to sort cause and effect after reading “Clark the Shark” .

Mrs. Cleveland's class played the card game war to practice comparing numbers. The player with the most dots on their card got to keep both cards. They played until someone ends up with all the cards. Playing with a purpose helps us learn!
