Mrs. Gove's 4th grade class recently turned an Art Project into a Pizza Party! The project that the class created for the Art Walk at the Wathena Fall Festival raised $45. The students each got to write a proposal for how they thought the class should spend their money. Students presented their ideas to the class and then voted to select a winner. Ideas included a fish tank, board games, bean bag chairs, sidewalk chalk, simple dimples, and a pizza party. The pizza party won with 15 votes!

Riverside Cross Country had 2 meets this past week, one at Rosecrans (hosted by Benton HS) and the other a Nemaha Valley (Spring Creek Golf Course). Benton's race featured good competition from schools in Kansas and Missouri. Hayden and Cody ran on the tough terrain course, Cody in JV with a time of 21:43 and Hayden in the Varsity with a time of 21:47. Our second race at the beautiful Spring Creek Golf Course was 2 days later and all 3 of our athletes competed. Anthony (7th grade) started off the day in his 3200 m run finishing in 4th place with a time of 13:43. Hayden and Cody both participated in the combined JV/V 5k and ran well, dropping a full minute or more off their season best. Cody ran 20:19 one of our fastest times at RHS for a freshman and Hayden ran 20:39. We're off to a great start and look forward to continued improvement as we run our next race at MWSU on Oct 2.

Riverside XC athletes Cody Hewins and Anthony Russell ran in their first cross country race of the year and of their career at Hiawatha last Thursday. It was a warm and windy day but turned out to be a great day for both of the boys. Anthony Russell placed second in the 7th grade 2 mile run with a time of 13:44 and Cody Hewins won his 5000m run in the JV division with a time of 21:41. It was really great to see both of them do this well so early in the year and we look forward to continued improvements and for senior Hayden Daugherty to be back with us!
