In order to comply with federal nutrition standards, we want to keep birthday celebrations at school healthy, fair and easy! This is a reminder to parents about RVUSD's new Wellness Practice for our schools: our teachers and staff will not be accepting food into their classrooms to celebrate student birthdays. If a family would like to send in a non-food treat instead, stickers or pencils are a great idea! Brainstorm ideas with your kids!
We have a new website! Updates are still in progress and we will be pushing out information and news to you soon on how to use it on your phone!
