Riverview Elementary – Congratulations Misty Jones

Misty Jones, our first-grade teacher here at Riverview Elementary, said, “This year I am trying out a sound wall in my classroom. The funds that were donated from the foundation are going to supplies that will help make this new program successful! I am excited to be able to implement a sound wall into my classroom because it goes really well with our training in the LTRS program this year. With the donation, I am able to purchase individual mirrors so students can see what their mouths look like when they are making different sounds of the alphabet, helping with their phonemic awareness.
