With anticipation brewing for the coming year, the Riverside Middle School Student Council (RMS StuCo) is gearing up for a transformative and memorable school year. Led by Advisors Christina Adkins & Rashid Baydoun, we spoke with the newly elected council members to get an insight into their plans and aspirations.
