IMPORTANT
The students and staff of Eden Lutheran School are selling the Shop Riverside Cards. We have been successfully participating in this fundraiser for over 10 years. They are $15 each and packed with discounts. These cards are valid now through December 30, 2026.  Don’t forget to pick one up and show them off to friends and relatives.  They are easy to sell and make great gifts.

Reminders:
Please take your child to the bathroom before taking them to their classroom. This helps with our morning transitions.

Please check your child’s cubby daily for supplies.  If diapering- your child needs diapers and wipes.  If potty training- your child needs pull- ups, wipes, and lots of spare clothes.  All children need weather appropriate extra clothes.  Please make sure everything is labeled. Thank you
