Riverside Local Schools

From Monday, April 27th, through Monday, May 11th, we will be hosting a school-wide food drive. Please have students place their donated items at the front of the classroom so they can be collected weekly. The class that donates the most items in each group (K–4, 5–8, and 9–12) will win an ice cream party at the end of the drive! We truly appreciate your continued support. This food drive is part of the National Honor Society’s service project, and it will make a meaningful impact on our community. We’re excited to see what our Pirate family can accomplish together!
