Students and faculty of Riverdale Heights Elementary celebrated their 10th year anniversary in CC! style. First, they had an all-school picture, in which over 690 students and faculty lined up in the shape of the Six Pillars.

The event also included a walk-a-thon fundraiser and Six Pillar t-shirts for students, sponsored by the PTA. The school has a community garden with CC!-related steppingstones, and it plays Aretha Franklin’s “R-E-S-P-E-C-T” during passing periods.

In addition, every adult employed at the building is responsible for a "troupe" of nine to 10 students from kindergarten through sixth grade. These troupes are "small families" within the school, and each month every one has a meeting focused on one of the Pillars.

"We had a great time with the event and continue to celebrate the Pillars of Character," said principal Jim Wichman.
