S.M. Rissler Elementary School

First Student Bus has announced that Bus 11 is running 15 minutes behind schedule.

All this week, Rissler is celebrating our students with the theme: You Make Our School Bright! Each day Dr. O. is giving away a big prize for one lucky student each day this week. Congratulations to our winner today! More to come this week. #RisslerStrong. #StudentAppreciation2026

Students in Mrs. Wyant's room celebrated spring with a brain break.

Mrs. Sager's students celebrated with ice cream sundaes after spending the week planning, writing and crafting about how to make ice cream sundaes. It has been a blast!
