When the name of the Rivercrest School District is mentioned, most people immediately think of our communities that are steeped in tradition. This is a place where roots run deep, and it is common for multi-generational families to continue to be active members of the school community. This is a place where we can ask a local farmer for help if a bus gets stuck. This is a place where everyone gathers to lend a hand and to show support when tragedy strikes. This is a place where we celebrate milestones with one another. This year we are celebrating a very special milestone in the history of our district. The doors of Rivercrest High School opened to students for the first time in August 1970 making the 2019-20 school year Rivercrest's 50th year.
