Uniform Policy

Students are required to wear the usual khaki or navy blue shorts or pants. Any Riverside spiritwear or Riverside

uniform shirts are acceptable. Hoodies ARE permitted this year. 

Water Bottles

Students should bring a water bottle, as there is a refillable water station located in our hallway. A big issue that

has developed is students not bringing a water bottle and asking teachers or the nurse for a cup. Please make

sure they have a labeled water bottle to prevent this issue!
