Riverside Pride: Honoring the Students Behind Our Daily Traditions
Riverside Local Schools is proud to recognize two outstanding young men, Greyson Godwin and Carson Manning, for their unwavering commitment to our school community and our country.
On Monday April 27th, 2026 both students were presented with Certificates of Recognition and Challenge Coin for their dedicated service in handling the daily flag duties at the school.
A Daily Commitment to Excellence
Greyson and Carson have taken on the solemn responsibility of raising the American flag every morning and lowering it each afternoon. While many are just beginning their school day or heading home for the evening, these two students have remained consistent, ensuring that our colors are flown with the respect and dignity they deserve.
Volunteering for this duty requires more than just a few minutes of time; it requires:
Punctuality: Ensuring the flag is raised properly.
Reliability: Stepping up every single day without being asked.
Respect: Following proper flag etiquette and protocol.
On behalf of the Riverside Schools Community we want to extend a sincere thank you to Greyson and Carson. Your initiative and patriotism do not go unnoticed, and we are honored to have you representing Riverside Local Schools.
