COMING SOON--RIVERSIDE'S WINTER BOOK FAIR!


The winter book fair will be here on January 23rd through January 27th in Riverside's
Parent's Place.  For more details

Students may purchase books with their class at their assigned shopping time during the
week.  The assigned time for your child's class will be sent home in the January 19th
Thursday folder.

Parents and families may also purchase books during our Book Fair Family Night on
Tuesday, 1/24 from 5:00-8:00 pm.

In addition we will once again host an "On-line Book Fair" from January 25th through
February 14th.  You may access the online book fair through our Book Fair Home Page

RIVERSIDE: IT'S TIME TO GO GREEN!

Every week, PTO sends home several papers in your child’s red Thursday folders. While
this information is very important, we would like to reduce the amount of paper we use
each year by e-mailing you the information instead.

TEN for TEN FUNDRAISER:

For the third year in a row, Broward County Schools have sustained severe budget cuts.  
Funding for school supplies has been drastically reduced.  Supplies donated at the
beginning of the year are depleted long before the school year ends.  Teachers and
room parents frequently replace supplies with their own money.       

TEN for TEN (Ten dollars per student for ten months) is a program where 100% of
donated funds go directly into our classrooms.  The teachers decide what to purchase,
with the money raised based on classroom needs.

RIVERSIDE'S PTO BOOK EXCHANGE PROGRAM

Don't know what to do with your child's old books?  Trade them in to Riverside's PTO for
"new" books!
