Bingo, Book Fair, Reflections, Oh My!
Its time for Family Fun night!
Join us for BINGO!
Date: Friday, November 16
Time: 6pm to ???
Price: $2 per Bingo card, or $5 for three cards. Blackouts $3 each, or $5 for two.
Dinner will be served! Pizza slice & a soda or water for $3, each additional slice $1.
We will have approximately 10-12 games with two blackout games. Fabulous prizes await, so come join the fun! Please email Melissa McDowell at mcdows4@yahoo.com if you would like to volunteer.
Reflections is on the same night!
And the Book Fair will be open too, so stop in before or after Bingo and see what's available. Teachers have a book bag filled with books they would love for their classrooms. Books make a great gift that keeps on giving! We also have an online book fair that you can access through the CVE homepage (www.cv.riverview.wednet.edu). So if your child's wants are too big, maybe grandparents or other family members can buy the books as Christmas presents. The books will be delivered to the library. The online book fair will continue a few days after the book fair closes. Book fair is open November 9-16 in the afternoons from 12:30 to 4.

Riverview Family Advocacy Mentors
Riverview Family Advocacy Mentors - "Fostering connections between families for the purposes
of sharing resources and strengthening advocacy." This program is a result of a partnership between Snoqualmie Valley Community Network, Riverview School District, and the Division of Vocational Rehabilition. The intent is to connect families with information and skills that will hopefully improve long-term outcomes for students with disabilities (any level of disability). While this program was designed with families of students with disabilities in mind, any family who is interested in improving their communication and advocacy skills is welcome to attend the event or sign-up for a mentor match.
Now connecting MENTOR CANDIDATES — parents of students (middle-school aged or higher) that have received support through an IEP or 504 plan and would like to give back by sharing experiences and resources with families who are new to advocacy, with PARENTS SEEKING SUPPORT THROUGH MENTORING (MENTEES) who wish to strengthen advocacy skills and gain information about navigating disability services in the schools and in the community from trained parents of older students with disabilities.
