Founder’s Day is a time to honor Riverside’s rich history, celebrate its present, and plan for its future. It is the traditional day that Riverside founder Pat DeOrio comes back to the school to talk to the current students and give them a glimpse into the history of this important institution. The students always love to hear from ‘Mrs. D’ and they pepper her with enough questions to fill an afternoon. The day also features a fun afterschool gathering for current families and alumni.
