Dear Current RCS Families,

On behalf of the River Canyon Board, we cordially invite you to attend the Annual Member Meeting, scheduled for October 30th at 4:45 p.m. at River Canyon School. This meeting will feature a Director Report and an election of our Board of Directors, in which you, as valued RCS members, will participate. In order to comply with our bylaws, we require a quorum of 25% of school families to be present. To facilitate attendance, we have scheduled this meeting prior to our Harvest Festival.

Furthermore, we are seeking four new members to join the Board. Membership is open to parents, guardians, extended family members, and community members. If you are interested in joining the Board, please submit a brief email outlining your interest. Kindly direct your correspondence to [email protected], [email protected], and [email protected].

Thank you for your ongoing support of RCS.

Our Annual Harvest Festival is scheduled for October 30th from 5:00 to 7:00; tickets will become available for purchase next week.

Children's participation in gardening, harvesting, and food preparation is crucial, as it fosters a stronger connection with the earth and a greater appreciation for food.
