Riverwood Elementary does a good job of communicating with all stakeholders. Below are some of the ways
the school communicates both internally and externally.
INTERNALLY: Admin->Teachers->Students->Teachers->Admin
Internally, information is shared via email and as needed. The emails are thorough and provide what the
teachers need to take action or communicate. The teachers are not inundated with emails, because they are not
expected to handle emails during their school day while with children. However, the staff is very responsive to
those emails and they seem to like that form of communication. If something is timely, then Admin also uses
the Remind App to send reminders to staff. Teachers often check their mailboxes throughout the day for any
information they need for students or from the office. Teachers will send notes from parents about any changes
in dismissal to the office in their attendance folder. Teachers can also use their school phones to reach the office
and have been trained to text an administrator for immediate concern or help. Non-teaching school staff is
usually armed with walkie talkies that they use to communicate needs and immediate information. Finally, the
school provides morning and afternoon announcements to keep the students aware of celebrations, upcoming
events, and dismissal announcements/changes.
