Proceeds from all November 15th events will be designated for REF Health and Wellness grants so that together, we can strengthen the learning environment for Riverview students by promoting positive lifestyle choices.
Why Health and Wellness?
The Riverview Education Foundation was created to support and enhance learning opportunities that challenge each student to attain their highest potential.
It is widely recognized that healthy students are better able to learn.
Schools can help optimize student readiness to learn by providing an environment that supports positive physical activity and eating behaviors.
