Fifth graders just finished up an ELA unit about the Renaissance and created pieces of artwork, architecture and inventions that demonstrate what they learned. See if you can find the Mona Lisa, any inventions by Leonardo da Vinci or a play by Shakespeare in the museum of 5th grade creations.

On February 14, Chief Anthony Blansett of the US Navy visited River Ridge to award school counselor Marie Brzezinski and math teacher Susan Miles with the Impact Influencer Award. These staff members received the award for writing recommendations that helped senior Isaac Rife earn a full NROTC scholarship to Marquette University. Only four students across all of Illinois and Iowa received a full NROTC scholarship, so this is a huge honor! Isaac plans on studying mechanical engineering in college. If you see Isaac around, be sure to congratulate him on this phenomenal accomplishment!

The River Ridge Middle School Student Council would like to Thank everyone that purchased Valentines! We had our largest order to date, with 330 orders!!! All of the orders were delivered today. If a student was absent we saved their treats.
The Middle School Students did a fantastic job of packaging everything. If the order was delivered later in the day Friday or after Friday we did our best to fill the orders.
Please contact us if something did not get delivered so we can fix it.

As we continue to fight through the cold and flu season, I wanted to send a couple of reminders of the exclusion criteria and when you should send your student to school or keep them home. At the bottom of this email, you will find a link to the Communicable Disease Guidance provided by the Illinois Department of Public Health.
Reminders:
To prevent the spread of communicable disease and illness, students and/or staff who are sick should stay home from school/work. If students are sent to school with symptoms, they will be assessed by the nurse and may be sent home with his/her parent upon arrival.
If your child is absent from school for 3 consecutive days or more, you must present a doctor’s note to verify the reason for the absence. A letter from a parent/caregiver is needed when: a child has any condition requiring hospital or surgical care.
Criteria for Exclusion from School:
Strep throat: Exclude until after 24 hours of effective antimicrobial therapy and afebrile for 24 hours without the use of fever-reducing medications.
Influenza: Positive cases must stay home for 1-4 days from the onset of symptoms. Exclusion time may vary based on the doctor's discretion.
COVID-19: Positive cases must stay home for 5 days from the onset of symptoms.
Gastroenteritis (vomiting and/or diarrhea) Bacterial: Exclude until diarrhea and/or vomiting has ceased for at least 24 hours; additional restrictions may apply.
Please reach out if you have any questions or concerns. Nurse Lisa can be reached by email at lhaas@riverridge210.org and via phone at 815-858-9005 ext. 333.
