MVR-III logo and Riverbend Middle School receives a surprise visit from KMOV.

Riverbend Middle School received a special visit from the KMOV Surprise Squad after students spent several trimesters focused on the importance of gratitude and appreciation for others.

As part of the school’s Community Service program, students wrote letters to the KMOV Surprise Squad recognizing RMS staff members who have made a positive impact on the school community.

In response to the students’ efforts, the Surprise Squad visited RMS to recognize several staff members and celebrate students for their thoughtful acts of kindness and appreciation.

The visit included a school-wide assembly, interviews with students and staff, and treats for the students following the assembly.

The experience highlighted the positive culture at RMS and the meaningful connections students and staff continue to build throughout the school community.
