Riverside on the Road!The Leader in Me by Stephen Covey is the foundation for a new virtual Wednesday field trip series with Principal Donovan at Riverside Elementary School! Riverside Elementary school has adopted this philosophy -- an evidence-based, comprehensive-school improvement model that empowers students with the leadership and life skills they need to thrive in the 21st century.

Riverside’s virtual Wednesday Town Meetings for students are focused on character traits like leadership, inspiring greatness in our youth.

Mrs. Donovan is going out-and-about on virtual Wednesdays monthly to low profile, socially distanced locations around our beautiful Elmira!

Where in the world is Mrs. Donovan today? Today, our Riverside Dragons virtually joined Principal Donovan on a field trip to Eldridge Park!

Just like during a regular school day in-person, our students begin by standing and reciting the Pledge of Allegiance. Then, Mrs. Donovan talks about a key word “Proactive” today as way to combat boredom. Does anyone at your house ever say, “I’m bored?” Being a strong leader means we are proactive – take charge of yourself when you are bored.

Remember, do your best to keep learning by being proactive! Be your own leader.

See you next time, Riverside! Where will Mrs. Donovan be?
