Portland, OR. Over 200 guests danced their way into the Roaring ’20s on February 29th at the Riverdale School District gala. The benefit at The Redd on Salmon included gaming, dinner, and a live auction which raised $181,000 to support the Riverdale Parent Teacher Club (PTC). Some funds are earmarked for improving the grade school and high school libraries. (Photo credit, Yah Yah Photography)

About Riverdale:
The Riverdale School District is an independent public school district. It was founded in 1888 and has always enjoyed widespread community interest, involvement and support. Today, Riverdale Grade School (PreK-8) and Riverdale High School (9-12) serve more than 600 families living in a residential, wooded area called Dunthorpe, located seven miles south of downtown Portland, Oregon, and adjacent to the city of Lake Oswego.
Riverdale at least educates their students unlike other public schools who only hope to promote “equality” at the expense of learning.
