Extracurricular activities are an important part of the student experience at River Valley, and sometimes we just need a few more people to help get our students where they need to go!
We are looking for part-time Transportation Chauffeurs to help transport students to practices, activities, and events throughout the school year.
This is a great opportunity for someone looking for flexible, occasional hours and some extra income while making a real difference for our students.
And don't let the chauffeur requirement scare you away! The process is easier than you might think, and we would be happy to help guide you through each step.
You don't have to commit to every trip. Even being available to help occasionally can make a big difference in keeping opportunities available for our Wolverines.
Interested or want to learn more? Contact Chuck Knaack at River Valley, and we'll help you get started!
❤️🖤 Be a key part of their journey. Go Wolverines! 🐾
We're looking for an Elementary Custodian who takes pride in creating a clean, safe, and welcoming environment for our students and staff.
If you're looking for a position with great hours, a supportive team, wonderful students, and the opportunity to make a difference every day, we'd love to hear from you.
Come be part of a district where every role matters because every student matters.
Interested? Contact River Valley Community School District or stop by the elementary office to learn more!
At River Valley, we're proud to partner with neighboring school districts to provide our students with even more opportunities to learn, compete, and grow.

If your student is interested in participating this season, now is a great time to get involved! Camp is a wonderful opportunity to meet teammates, work with coaches, build skills, and prepare for the upcoming season.
🚌 River Valley will provide transportation to and from camp, making it even easier for our students to participate.

River Valley Preschool's naturalist Ms.Laura came once a month throughout the year and taught us about many different topics. She taught us about birds, spiders, hibernation, reindeer, animal tracks, animal teeth, water cycle, and about turtles. The kids really enjoyed having her. She would read us a book about that topic and would play games with us, have real animal artifacts for us to touch and see. She also sometimes had something for us to make after she was done teaching us about a topic. She made them Jr. Naturalist certificates for completing all the topics this year.
Come out tomorrow night and check out our students accomplishments!
