🎶🔊 Science & Sound in 3rd Grade Music Class! 🔊🎶
Our third graders had an exciting hands-on learning experience as they explored the science of sound in music class this week!
Students discovered how sound waves work, learning about frequency and how it affects the pitch we hear. They also investigated how sound travels through different mediums—like air and water—and how those changes can impact the way we hear sound.
To bring their learning to life, students created their very own musical water glasses, experimenting with different amounts of water to produce a variety of tones. It was amazing to see (and hear!) how science and music connect! 💧🎵
We’re so proud of how our students are thinking like scientists and musicians! 👏✨

Day 4 of our Volunteer Recognition shines a spotlight on someone whose impact on our campus is unmatched—Christy Louque, proud mom of Dalton in fourth grade.
While you may not see her in the halls every day, her presence is felt in a big way throughout the Riversink community. When it comes to fundraising, Christy is truly unmatched. From local business owners to public officials, she has built relationships that directly benefit our school in incredible ways.
Through her tireless efforts alongside her son, Christy has helped raise over $25,000 through sponsorships, ticket sales, and by securing generous item donations. Her dedication, persistence, and belief in our school make opportunities possible for our students that would not exist otherwise.
We are beyond grateful for the impact she continues to make behind the scenes. Christy, thank you for championing our school and showing what it means to give wholeheartedly.
🌟 Volunteer Spotlight: Mr. William Stoffel 🌟
At Riversink Elementary, we are incredibly grateful for the heart and dedication of Mr. William Stoffel—a volunteer who has faithfully poured into our school community for over 7 years.
From the very beginning, Mr. Stoffel has stood proudly beside his three children—Brayden (13, now at Riversprings Middle), Tatum (12), and Henry (10)—while also stepping up to serve so many others along the way.
As the leader of our All Pro Dad chapter, he has created meaningful moments that bring fathers and families together. But his impact doesn’t stop there…
📚 Helping at the Book Fair
🍕 Supporting lunch events & pizza parties
🎁 Leading and contributing to food drives & toy drives
🎅 Even lending a hand as Ole St. Nick himself
Mr. Stoffel consistently shows up—giving his time, energy, and generosity to make Riversink a better place for every student.
Your commitment, kindness, and servant leadership have not gone unnoticed. On behalf of our entire Riversink family… THANK YOU for the countless ways you give back.
💙 We appreciate you more than words can say! 💙
Day 2 of National Volunteer Week — Celebrating Mrs. Daniels! 💙
If you’ve ever wondered what true dedication looks like, look no further than Mrs. Joann Daniels. She is simply the best!
Mrs. Daniels volunteers weekly in Mrs. Kimbrel’s 4th grade classroom, working one-on-one with students and making a lasting impact through her patience, encouragement, and genuine care. She doesn’t just show up—she goes above and beyond for every child she works with.
But her impact doesn’t stop at Riversink… Mrs. Daniels is a pillar of support across our entire school system and community.
She is actively involved in:
• Wakulla County Academic Boosters, helping raise funds and award scholarships to 50 graduating seniors
• The Coastal Optimist Club, where she chairs the Back-to-School Supply Drive, coordinates the Essay and Oratorical contests, and helps fund scholarships for local seniors while supporting students from elementary through high school
• Academic Brain Brawl competitions and Operation Santa, spreading both knowledge and joy
• The Wakulla County Historical Society, connecting students with local history
• The Friends of the Public Library
• Serving as a Sunday School teacher
• Volunteering as a Spelling Bee Judge and 4-H Speech Contest Judge
• Teaching students about coastal wildlife through Project Learning Tree
• Membership in Delta Kappa Gamma Teacher Honor Society
Her dedication reaches every corner of our community, and her impact is felt by students of all ages. We are so fortunate to have someone like her supporting our Otter family!
Thank you, Mrs. Daniels, for your selfless service, your heart for students, and the countless ways you make Wakulla County a better place. We are so grateful for you!
