News for Riverview Elementary School
Originally posted April 19, 2017The Marion High School Speech and Drama Association is bringing the modern musical “Disney’s High School Musical” to local audiences later this month. This is a fun, family-friendly show that you won’t want to miss!
MHS students will bring Disney Channel's smash hit movie musical to life on stage at the Walton Performing Arts Center, as Troy, Gabriella and the students of East High deal with issues of first love, friends and family while balancing their classes and extracurricular activities.
Show times are at 7:30 on Thursday, April 27, and Saturday, April 29. Tickets are general admission, and $8 for adults, $5 for children/students.
Disney's High School Musical is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI). All authorized performance materials are also supplied by MTI. www.MTIShows.com.
Do YOU have a plan for your students for the summer?Did you know that students currently in grades kindergarten through eight can sign up NOW to attend the Giant Summer Academy?
The schedule:
This free four-week program will run 8 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Monday through Thursday, starting June 5 and ending June 29. Free breakfast (at 7:30 a.m.) and lunch will be provided to all students enrolled in Giant Summer Academy.
Morning sessions will be tailored to each student's academic needs. (These will not necessarily be grade-level groups. Rather, each student will be guided and challenged to grow from whatever their starting point is, and will have the chance to interact with others who are at a similar level.)
Afternoon enrichment sessions each week will center on a theme:
- June 5-8: Sports and Games
- June 12-15: Performing and Fine Arts
- June 19-22: STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math)
- June 26-29: Entrepreneurship
Location
All academic and enrichment sessions for all students will be at Marion High School, 750 W. 26th St. Breakfast and lunch will be available free for all students at the MHS cafeteria.

Marion Community Schools invites families of children who will be starting kindergarten next school year to come visit their elementary schools and get a head start on the registration process at Kindergarten Roundup, set for Thursday, April 13.
Families can attend one of two sessions set that day, at 1:30 p.m. or 6 p.m.
Children who will be 5 years old on or before Aug. 1, 2017, can attend kindergarten in the 2017-18 school year.
The informational sessions will be offered at every MCS elementary school:
- Allen Elementary School, 1115 E. Bradford St.
- Frances Slocum Elementary School, 2909 S. Torrence St.
- Kendall Elementary School, 2009 W. Kem Road
- Riverview Elementary School, 513 W. Buckingham Drive
We hope to see all families of incoming kindergartners at this event that is just for them! It's a great way to help your future kindergartner get an introduction to the school building and staff. It's a low-pressure, informative session that's meant to specifically meet the needs of families with incoming kindergartners and their families.
What you need to bring: We ask that you bring proof of residence (like a utility bill with your name and address on it) if possible, so we can make sure you're at the right school. We also ask that you bring a copy of your kindergartner-to-be's birth certificate. You'll be beginning the registration process at Kindergarten Roundup, so we need that official document to certify your child is eligible for kindergarten. (If you cannot bring a copy of the birth certificate on this day, we can still begin the registration process, but we'll need you to follow up with us and provide that document before we can complete the registration process.)
For more information, call 765-662-2546, ext. 132.
