River Valley Community School District - Home of the Wolverines

Today we begin our Senior Spotlight Feature. Every day until the seniors last day we will feature one of our seniors. We begin with Teddy Mammen who is the daughter of Kacie Mammen, Jake & Josie Berning. Her brothers are Gage Berning, Charlie Mammen & Payton Rabbass. Her sister is Jayde Berning. Teddy's favorite HS memory is the trips to Ames for speech. Performing in the auditorium was definitely an experience she will never forget. Teddy has graduated early and is already working. In the fall she is planning on attending WITCC for Ag Mngmt. Best of luck to you, Teddy!

Recently the RV Elementary 3rd graders read the book Flat Stanley. Then they took time and created their own Flat Stanley to mail to a relative or friend. Today they took a trip to the post office to send their Flat Stanley’s on their way! The kids are excited to learn about all of the different locations and communities that their Flat Stanley were sent to.

It is Forensic Friday! The Chemistry & Advance Chemistry classes of Mrs Wassenaar are at BV University in Storm Lake for the day learning cool things!

On your way in to the concert tonight, make sure you take some time to view the amazing artwork that lines the front hallway. Art students have been doing a variety of things to display their talents. REMINDER -- K-8 concert tonight starts at 6:30 pm in Correctionville gym.

In addition to viewing the eclipse this past Monday, teachers set up the viewing in several ways. Teachers used the day to do some cross curricular activities as well as team teach some lesson on the eclipse. I guess you could say RV Elementary's teachers are "Out of the World"! I must also apologize, as I neglected to give a shout out to Mrs. Mallison, Mrs. Meyers, and Ms. Nissen for also providing some of the glasses for viewing yesterday. It was much appreciated!
