In honor of Veteran’s Day this year, Riverdale invited Steve Martin, a former US Army corporal and Arizona National Guard veteran who served in Afghanistan, to speak in an assembly about his challenges and resilience as a double-amputee.

November 19, 2019 held a special promise for the Riverdale community: a day off classes. However, One World Day proved to be so much more. On this day, high schoolers listened to poetry, wrote stories, attended workshops, participated in improv, and even indulged in a donut wall and a chocolate fountain, all with the goal of coming together as a community to explore storytelling.
