Riverview students were treated to a special holiday performance as a harmonica group filled the school with cheerful Christmas songs. The familiar melodies brought smiles, toe-tapping, and festive spirit to students and staff alike. To make the day even more magical, Santa Claus made a surprise visit, spreading joy, waving to students, and adding an extra touch of holiday cheer to this memorable celebration. 🎄🎅



❤️ A Random Act of Cardinal Kindness 💙
Today, our administration team took time to surprise local businesses with a random act of Cardinal kindness, thanking them for the support they provide our schools throughout the year. They signed thank-you cards and delivered “We Are BR” stickers as a reminder that our schools and community are strongest when we work together.
A special thank you to Cranker’s for hosting breakfast for our administration team this morning—we appreciate your hospitality and continued support!
We are grateful for the partnerships, generosity, and care that make a difference for our students and staff. Together, we are BR.

The concert showcased their teamwork, talent, and holiday spirit, making it a memorable experience for everyone in attendance. 🎶✨









Grandma Judy surprised Ms. Oman’s class with a special visit to help students create their very own table wreaths. The students were thrilled to learn wreath-making and enjoyed the hands-on holiday activity. Her kindness and creativity brought extra joy and festive spirit to the classroom, making it a memorable surprise for everyone. 🌿🎄








Red the elf has been busy running around the school, cleverly hiding from the students and keeping everyone on their toes. Each day, students excitedly searched hallways and classrooms, hoping to spot where Red might be hiding next. His playful antics added extra excitement, laughter, and holiday magic to the school days. 🎄✨
