Riverview Elementary School

Posted September 18, 2008

I am the PE teacher at Riverview. Our school provides a range of extracurricular programs to encourage students to participate in activities such as Volleyball, BINGO Night, Muffins with Mom and Donuts with Dad, Pumpkins n Poetry, Boys Club, Girls Club, WASL Warm Ups, the All School Production, Riverview Ropers Jump Rope Club, Choir, Chess Club, Drawing Club and School Safety Patrol. Participation in these activities help children feel a connection to our school community. The Riverview PTO has a tradition of parent involvement in our school's educational and extracurricular programs. One sure way to keep communication flowing between home and school is to get parents involved in their child's school community. All members of Riverview's community-students, staff, parents and visitors-are responsible for creating and maintaining our school's culture where everyone safely learns and grows. Come see for yourself what a great school we are! Alice Atha

My daughter has been attending here for three years. She was sent home once because she had temporary very small highlights put in her hair. 1st and 2nd grade were great, she had homework and understoood what the teacher wanted. Third grade has been totally different, the hardest grade so far and she rarely had homework, it was hard to understand, the teacher did one conference during the school year. I had to go buy home schooling materials and home school her because they did not provide enough work. We are moving and I'm sad that my daughter is going to have to meet new friends, but I am not upset that she is changing schools.

This school is very disappointing. I was told that Riverview was an excellent school that is why we bought a home in the area, but currently I don't see any particular strengths. There are no designated groupings for higher math students, reading etc. No challenge unless you are here at the time of testing for the Excel program - and that is not a strong program either. The district is lazy and the riverview staff is busy with there own social standings at the office to principal level. Very disappointing school district.

My son attends Riverview. I was initally impressed during the first days of school. Now after several weeks of school am no longer enthusiastic about this school. Their list of punishalble offenses and the lack of multitasking ability on his teachers part is very frustrating.
