Riverside Elementary

Please review Riverside's Uniform Policy for the 2024-25 school year as you begin purchasing items for next year. This policy will be enforced beginning next school year. Please remember that sweaters, sweatshirts, jackets, and coats must be solid colors. We changed this based on feedback from parents. Riverside sweatshirts and t-shirts may be worn daily with uniform bottoms. Shorts, pants, jumpers, and skirts should only be navy or khaki. No black tops or bottoms should be worn any longer. Thank you for your help to ensure students are wearing the appropriate uniform to school each day.
