While we weren’t able to go to the waterpark due to circumstances beyond our control, Rivercrest Elementary is excited to announce our NEW Atlas reward trip – the movies! Students will enjoy their special trip on Thursday, September 4. We can’t wait to celebrate their hard work with a fun day at the theater!
Students in Mrs. Conley's first grade class played a phonics game with short a words. Every student had a word on their back. One partner segmented the sounds in the word, while the other partner had to blend the sounds together to form the word. After playing, students had to take their words and write them in a sentence.

Excitement is in the air at Rivercrest Libraries!
Reading opens doors to imagination, knowledge, and lifelong success. At Rivercrest, we believe every student deserves a place that makes reading feel inviting and inspiring.
Our librarians, Melissa Baker and Leslie Lancaster, have created libraries that are more than shelves of books. They are cozy, welcoming spaces where students discover new worlds, connect with stories, and grow as readers.
Parents, one of the best ways to support your child is simple. Ask them what they are reading. A short conversation can spark a love for books that lasts a lifetime.
Let’s celebrate the joy of reading !
