River Valley Elementary's first grade had a fun week investigating pumpkins and going to the pumpkin patch! They got to explore the inside of pumpkins, count pumpkin seeds, try pumpkin seeds, and eat pumpkin muffins! To top it all off they got to bring a pumpkin home from the pumpkin patch!

Last week River Valley Elementary celebrated Iowa apple farmers by participating in the Great Iowa Apple Crunch. The students enjoyed some great tasting apples and also participated in a coloring contest. Our judges had a hard time deciding as there were a lot of wonderfully colored pictures. Here are the winners from each grade level! Nice job kids!

Yesterday, River Valley Elementary was fortunate to have a visit from the Washta Fire Department. They came to help us with Fire Prevention Week. They watched how our fire drill took place and then talked to the students about fire safety. The students were also able to look in and around the department's various fire truck.

We are so thankful for the Washta Fire Department taking time out of their busy day to support our students and helping to promote fire safety!

Note: Unfortunately, the sun hampered some of our photos:( I do apologize!

The River Valley School District was awarded a grant last spring from the Cherokee County Legacy Foundation to enhance landscaping and outdoor spaces at the Elementary School!

With these funds, the Plant Science class redesigned and refreshed the flower beds, and new picnic tables and benches were added to the recess area.

A huge thank-you to the Cherokee County Legacy Foundation for helping us create a more welcoming and enjoyable space for our students!
