Dear Riverdale Heights Families,
Last Day of School June 5th Dismissal - 11:30am
Attention 6th grade families: Iowa Immunization Law requires all students entering 7th grade to have one dose of Tdap vaccine and one dose of Meningococcal vaccine. Once these have been completed, please provide the updated immunization certificate to your school nurse. The State of Iowa allows NO grace period for the start of the school year. Students without evidence of these vaccinations or an immunization exemption certificate on file will be unable to attend school in August until the requirement is met.
Summer Learning Software - Over the summer your student will continue to have access to the programs (Waterford-recommended, ST Math-recommended) they used on a daily basis through Clever. We would like to encourage your students to utilize these resources over the summer to stay engaged in their learning. This will continue to be available through July 28, at which time we will then pause Clever access in order to roll over to the next school year.
Linked is a guide for instructions on how K-6 can access Clever at home: CLEVER LOGIN INSTRUCTIONS
If you are having technical problems using ST Math please reference the Device Technical Requirements to make sure your device is compatible with the program's requirements.
