A Welcome Note
                               From Your 2021-22
                            RGS PTC Board Committee
Hurray for the start of another school year! This Fall, your Riverdale Parent Teacher Club (PTC)
is happier and prouder than ever to continue its half century of volunteer work welcoming new
and returning families to our Grade School community. Last year reinforced the incredible
importance to our children — and us — of the classmates, teachers, staff, leaders, and
caregivers in our district. Your PTC strove to creatively serve our school community under
uncertain and distanced circumstances and proved that, with determination and ingenuity, there
is nothing we can’t accomplish. This year, we look forward to resuming as much as possible the
activities and events that make Riverdale such a special place. We do so, mindful that things
can change and that we can and will model the flexibility and resilience we wish our children to
learn. As always, we are guided by our mission “to enrich Riverdale’s K-8 education by
curriculum activities, encouraging parent involvement, supporting student participation,
and fostering communication to strengthen our community.” Like always, we look to you to
help us along the way.

Electronic communications remain more important than ever, so we are expanding into social
media! Follow us on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/riverdaleparentteacherclub/) and
Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/riverdaleptc/) for the most current information on what
we’re doing. And please check your emails and the PTC website, www.riverdaleptc.org, for
news about what we’re doing and what you can do to be involved.

We are so glad to have you with us and look forward to supporting your family and our school
together.

Sincerely,

Shelyea, Nikki, Alexia, Michele, Elisabet, Sara, Ashley & Stephanie

Riverdale Parent Teacher Club Grade School Back-to-School Packet 2021-22 - Riverdale PTC
PTC Overview
What is the PTC? First established in 1969, the Riverdale Parent Teacher Club (PTC) is a
501(c)(3) non-profit organization that develops, implements, and funds curricular and
extracurricular programs in support of students, faculty, and staff of the Riverdale School
District; fosters parent involvement in the Riverdale School District; enhances community within
the Riverdale School District; and shows appreciation for Riverdale School District faculty,
administration and staff. Each Riverdale school is supported by the PTC, primarily through
standing committees with responsibility for matters related to their respective schools.

What’s the mission of the PTC’s Grade School Board Committee? We enrich Riverdale’s K-
8 education by enhancing curriculum activities, encouraging parent involvement, supporting
student participation, and fostering communication to strengthen our community. Our main focus
is to enrich the educational experience at RGS and historically we have done so through:

   ●   Classroom Enrichment - art literacy, garden education, financial aid for books, field studies,
       lunch, grants for core subjects, special performances, author visits
   ●   Teacher Support - classroom funds, room parents, monthly lunches, teacher appreciation week
   ●   Extracurricular - community school, athletics support, extended care
   ●   Community Building - back-to-school events, Carnival, Riverdale playgroup, Field Day, guest
       speakers, book fair, craft fair, movie nights, new family liaison, grade connectors, Auction (also
       our most important fundraising event of the year!)
   ●   Grade School Support - lunch program coordination, weekly and quarterly newsletters, website
       updates, support for music programs, facilities improvements, equipment, technology, supplies

Where does the PTC operating budget come from? As an all-volunteer organization, the
Riverdale PTC has virtually no overhead expenses and we are proud to direct the funds we
raise into the programs and events that support Riverdale students and staff and build our
community. We raise funds by collecting fees from families at the start of the year and through
several fundraising events. The most important of these events is the annual Spring Auction. To
learn more about our finances, please visit: https://www.riverdaleptc.org/category/finance-rgs/.

Are the PTC and the Riverdale School Foundation the same thing? Do I need to
contribute to both? The Riverdale Foundation is independent of the PTC and was created to
raise funds to bridge the gap between Oregon state funding and the actual cost of a Riverdale
education. The funds raised through the Foundation’s annual campaign go directly to the
district. The PTC is funded by our own fees and fundraising, and our funds are used to support
other classroom and school programs and enrich our Riverdale community. Both
organizations do critical work to support our schools and your contributions to both
ensure that Riverdale schools have the resources they need to provide an excellent
education to our kids.

How do I find out the latest PTC news? What do I do if I have more questions? This year,
the RGS PTC is trying something new: we’re moving our current events and announcements to
social media. Please follow us on Facebook and Instagram to learn what your RGS PTC has in
store and is doing throughout the school year. We will continue to email our weekly “Parent
Pack” newsletter too, but we know that families can be inundated by messages and/or lose
them to folders. For less time-bounded items, please check out our website at
www.riverdaleptc.org. And of course, please contact any of our board members directly.

                                                                                                            3
Riverdale Parent Teacher Club Grade School Back-to-School Packet 2021-22 - Riverdale PTC
Who is on the PTC Board? Parents of current RGS and RHS students serve as directors of
the PTC. The Board meets at least twice a year, with the bulk of the work of the PTC being done
by each standing committees responsible for supporting each school. In addition to the Board,
parent and community volunteers chair each of our PTC-sponsored events and activities. The
PTC’s Board Committee holds open “General Meetings” at least three times a year, which are
open to any adult residing in the Riverdale School District, any adult (regardless of district
residency) who is a principal caregiver of a child attending a school in the Riverdale School
District, and Riverdale School District teachers, administrators, school board members and staff.

PTC-Supported Student Programs
Below you will find condensed information on some of our many programs for Riverdale
students. For detailed information on all PTC-sponsored events and activities, please visit
our website.

                                     Community School
The Riverdale PTC’s Community School offers exciting extracurricular classes that are not funded
by our district budget. Community School was established with the mission to enrich our children's
education by exposing our students to interesting ideas and new concepts. Community School
classes normally take place at the Grade School, so your PTC is exploring ways to continue
connecting students with engaging learning opportunities from a distance. Some of our
programs, like MarimaLab, are soliciting sign-ups directly and information is below. Please contact
communityschool@riverdaleptc.org with questions and check Community School webpage for
updates: https://www.riverdaleptc.org/category/community-school

                           School Lunch Program 2021-22
Healthy Habits and the Riverdale PTC are pleased to be offering lunch again! Meals will be
similar to last year: a rotating hot entree, some fan-favorite hot meals that are offered daily,
sandwiches, salads, and snacks. During this challenging time, Healthy Habits and the school
will continuously be working together to make sure all students have a safe eating
environment and have adequate time to eat lunch.

Lunch is ordered online at www.orgsonline.com. If you are new to lunch ordering, use
213RGSOROR for the school code. The full menu (including the rotating hot lunch option) is
available on the Monthly Ordering Form. The monthly ordering period happens between the 1 st
and 20th days of an “ordering month” (we combine some months to avoid ordering periods
conflicting with holidays or school closures). September ordering will stay open until August
25th to make sure everyone has enough time to order.

If you are in a pinch or missed the monthly ordering period, you can always use the Limited Menu
ordering form. Orders can be placed up until the night before for a few of the hot menu items,
sandwiches, salads, and snacks.

All payments are due by the 25th of each month.

Additionally, did you know that PTC coordinates the lunch volunteers? We need many
volunteers each day and we are always looking for more help. In fact, this year, because of
Covid, the only in-school volunteer opportunity will be through the lunch program. Please
consider grabbing a friend and spending your lunch with our kids! Go to
https://www.riverdaleptc.org/volunteer-opportunities-at-rgs today to sign up for lunch service.
                                                                                                   8

consider becoming an art lit volunteer! No art skills or knowledge is required; all information
necessary is provided during program training. Contact the RGS Vice President(s) at
rgsvicepresident@riverdaleptc.org for more information.

activities for our older RGS students. Activities typically include Friday Night Dancing School, a
Winter Formal dance, and year-end promotion activities for 8th graders. In addition, the Leadership
class traditionally organizes a Fall dance and the Field Day dance. Participating families are
expected to pay fees that support the specific events and activities their child attends and all
parents are encouraged to volunteer planning and supporting these activities. In addition, the 8th
grade class typically raises money for a gift to the school, such as the water stations recently
installed by the athletic field. Please visit the PTC website for more information:
