HIP HIP HOORAY! Riviera ISD is celebrating the 100th day of school on February 3rd!
SENIOIRS: Caps & Gowns will be delivered on February 13th. All orders must be placed prior to February 10th to be included in delivery.
Join us in learning about what RISD has to offer! Wednesday, February 19 @5pm in the library. This is important for all 7th & 8th grade students and parents to attend (and any freshman still undecided in their pathway). This information will make class selections much easier when we begin Personal Graduation Plans for incoming freshman.
This October, a few of Mrs. Cannon’s and Coach Amaya’s students entered the, “Young Writers Fright Club” contest, in October. We just received notice that these four brilliant students have been chosen for publication in, “Fright Club - Into the Whispering Shadows.”
Kaufer Early College High School, along with the winning students, will receive a copy of the publication.
We are so proud of our students and their passion for writing, the ability to produce excellence in a setting of strict criteria, and represent themselves and their district through the expression of language!
