Riverview Elementary

Hey kids… while you were enjoying your day off, guess who still had to go to school?
👩‍🏫 That’s right — your teachers! 👨‍🏫
They spent the day learning, planning, and getting ready to make the rest of the year awesome!

🚌Oh, The Places Our Buses Go — Safely!

It’s National School Bus Safety Week, and we’re celebrating the incredible team that keeps our Cardinals safe every single day!

Each day, BRPS buses carry 1,372 students across 1,023 miles — and by week’s end, that’s 5,115 miles and more than 6,800 safe rides completed! 🚦 That would be like driving to Florida every day or driving from New York City to Las Vegas, Nevada AND BACK each week!

From early mornings to afternoon drop-offs, our drivers and transportation staff make safety their top priority — and we’re so thankful for the care, smiles, and dedication they show on every route. ❤️

Things got saucy at Riverview today!

Our students had a pasta-tively awesome time turning Ms. Kent into spaghetti! 🍅
What a fun way to celebrate our fundraising and share some laughter together.

This event was im-pasta-ble without the PTO's support!

🎉 Celebrating Our Principals! 🎉

At last night’s Board of Education meeting, we took a moment to recognize our incredible principals in honor of National Principal Appreciation Month! ❤️

Each principal received an embroidered lunch cooler featuring the BR logo — a small token of appreciation for the big impact they make every single day.

Thank you to our principals for leading with dedication, heart, and a commitment to helping every student thrive. We’re so grateful for all that you do! 🙌

The elementary students gathered for a special fire safety assembly where local firefighters taught them how to stay safe. They learned the importance of checking smoke detectors, making a family escape plan, and staying low if there’s smoke. The firefighters also demonstrated their gear so students wouldn’t be afraid in an emergency. Everyone left the assembly feeling informed, confident, and prepared.
