The Riverview and Redgranite artists once again started the school year off with participation in school wide art projects. The theme for this year revolved around the idea of being unique individuals within a connected community.
The K-5 students in Mrs. Miller’s art classes either used pre-made or their own ideas for “paths” for their section of the artwork. These paths were then able to connect to other artists’ trails. The 1st-5th grade students also learned about monochromatic color schemes, values, tints, and shades. The kindergarteners filled their backgrounds in with patterns and/or pictures using any colors of their choice. Some of the 4K students and staff members also joined in on the projects.

In Arts and Letters 1st grade's new word is "Texture". The class observed and examined textures throughout the room and in the painting "Young Hare". Students practiced using "texture" in their own paintings of creatures.

The 3rd Grade Team is pleased to nominate Wesley Wagner for Riverview Elementary’s Student of the Month.
Wesley consistently demonstrates responsibility, kindness, and a strong work ethic in everything he does. He is dependable, always completing his work on time and to a high standard, and he actively participates in class discussions with thoughtful contributions.
What truly sets Wesley apart is his character. He treats his peers and teachers with respect and compassion, and he is always willing to lend a helping hand.

In addition to his excellence in the classroom, Wesley is also a great teammate on the soccer field. He brings a positive attitude, encourages others, and shows true leadership both on and off the field. His sportsmanship, teamwork, and ability to inspire those around him are just further proof of his outstanding character.
Wesley’s positive attitude, dedication, and leadership make him a role model in our school community. He embodies what it means to be a responsible, respectful, and kind student.
For these reasons, I wholeheartedly recommend Wesley Wagner for Student of the Month.
