What an amazing week for our CLC!
Thank you to everyone who came to the Bike Rodeo and Art Show! BIG shoutout to Scheels for fixing our bikes, Bryan Health for protecting our brains, and to all of our volunteers who helped make the event a success. 🚲️
If you stopped inside, you would have seen some amazing artwork from Riley artists who are all superheroes! 🦸🏼
We also celebrated the last week of Folk Dance Club with a showcase of some of the dances the students learned over the year. It was so much fun that families joined in too🕺🏼

📱Is social media changing the way our kids see themselves?
Between the "perfect" photos, the pressure to keep up, and the constant pings of notifications, our kids are navigating a world we didn't grow up in. Whether you have a preschooler or a high school senior, the digital world is taking center stage in their lives and it’s time we talk about it.
Join us for a special presentation by School Community Intervention & Prevention (SCIP) as we dive into:
The Comparison Trap: Understanding how digital "perfection" impacts self-esteem.
The Pressure to Perform: Why the 24/7 nature of the internet creates a new kind of stress.
Opening the Lines: Practical strategies for communicating with your kids about their digital lives.

🗓️ When: May 12th, 6:30-7:15
Where: Riley Library (Enter through Door #1)
Who: All parents and guardians are welcome!
Let’s work together to keep our kids grounded in a digital world.

Thank you to the AMAZING Neveria La Monarca for delivering the most amazing treats today for Teacher Appreciation Week. To say they were delicious doesn't even begin to cover it. Thank you SO much for caring for our staff. We appreciate you!!

We want to recognize our AMAZING school nurses, Liz and Nicole, on Nurse Appreciation Day! From mystery stomach aches to playground wipeouts, you handle it all with patience, care, and a whole lot of heart. You’re a safe place for our students on their toughest days and a huge part of what makes Riley feel like home.
We appreciate you more than you know!
