Fall River Elementary Newsletter


Hello Fall River Fox Families,

Summer is fast approaching. We only have two weeks left of the 2024-25 school year!

We will be keeping all students’ iPads that are returning to Fall River in the fall at the school for the summer. If your child will be attending a school outside of SVVSD, or a charter school next year, please be sure to return their charger and iPad to their teacher or to the Fall River office.

If your child is attending Fall River next year and you would like to have their iPad sent home with them for the summer, please email our secretary, Amanda Rogowski at [email protected] no later than Friday, May 16th. We will make sure their iPad is sent home with them during the last week of school.

For those students attending the Project Launch summer school program at Alpine Elementary, we will have their iPads boxed up and delivered to Alpine for your child to use.

Lastly, for all of our 5th graders who are moving on to middle school within SVVSD, they will be bringing their iPad home during the last week to take with them to middle school next year. If your 5th grader will be attending a school outside of SVVSD, or a charter school, please return their iPad and charger to their teacher or the front office.

Thank you, and please let our office know if you have any questions.

Onward and upward!

Quinn O’Keefe
Fall River Principal
