The Parent Advisory Group's Annual Fall Festival is an event you do not want to miss. The donation items fill the barn beyond capacity, you never know what you are going to find! Volumes of books, clothes and shoes galore, ski equipment, furniture...the list goes on...And all handpicked by the generous staff of parents and volunteers that supply food and muscle for one of Riverside's biggest fundraisers.  

Enjoy the day!

Celebrate the taste of the season with this flavorful and highly anticipated event! Oktoberfest is a good time and a great way to support the school while toasting local brewers and enjoying the traditional bavarian bier garden fare. Cheers!

Biography Fair has its roots in so many Riverside traditions but one is rarely as captivating as Bio Fair. Students start thinking about it during the first week of school. And the day it arrives, you can hardly recognize the middle school students on campus. Their costumes so elaborate and the displays so detailed. The students are even overheard speaking to each other in character. The elementary students even catch the bug by performing short speeches and interviews in their characters and all the students act as audience to one another while proud parents look on.
