In an effort to support our Riverdale community, PTA has partnered with Upon the Rock Faith Ministry. Our first activity will be assisting Upon this Rock Faith Ministry with serving dinner at Calvary Refuge Center in Forest Park on Monday, October 13th from 6 to 8pm. The church will prepare the food, and we would assist with serving and cleaning up afterwards. This activity is open to all students and families. If you can attend, please register at the link below so that we can let the church and the center know how many of us to expect.
