Letter to Parents from West Riverside School – Link

Students who are in grades 1-8 and over the age of six find out what it was like to attend a rural school in 1900, and we ask them to wear old-fashioned clothes, bring two sharpened lead pencils, an old-fashioned lunch in a basket, or pail, and their own hand towel.  Students may bring old books, toys, wooden articles, etc. to show at school. More information on the 2025 class can be found in the letter linked above.

Family and friends are welcome to visit the school any day during school hours. There will be a program by the students on Friday.
