The Jon. M. Huntsman Family is proud to sponsor the 21st Annual Huntsman Awards for Excellence in Education.

This morning, after the school had gathered together for the second grade program, Mrs. Muirbrook received a call from Sparkle the Elf explaining that Santa needed to land somewhere, and QUICK!  She said he could make a stop right there at Riverview.

In just 3 weeks, our first graders read 5,105 books!  The goal to earn a Polar Express party was for each student to read 15 books, or 2,079 books for the entire grade!  That goal was easily surpassed by these readers!  The first graders were treated to their party and had a great time.  Mrs. Olson promised her class that she would dress up if their students read, and she kept her promise as she showed up today as a Grinch character.  Way to read, First Grade!

Students pictured are the top two readers from each first grade class.

Second graders provided some fantastic entertainment when they performed their Christmas program for their parents on Wednesday.  The songs were fun to learn and were all about having a "Nice, nice Christmas."  Students had so much fun singing about decorating trees, and asking Santa for what they wished for.  One of the highlights was watching these students groove as they sang about reindeer dancing on their days off from work!  They were invited to sing for Superintendent Nielson and friends at the district office, too.  They will perform their show again tomorro
