I am so proud to announce that the River Valley School Community School District with the help of its staff, students, and area families was able to raise over $1,500 for the Shoumaker family. We have so many kind and giving souls in our schools and communities! We continue to keep the Shoumaker family in our thoughts!
Pictured are most of the students and staff that played a big role in our "Donation Day"
Last night, I was proud to attend the 2025 Cherokee County Legacy Foundation Awards Banquet. It was held at the Aurelia Community Center. I accepted a check for $5,000 dollars, with that money to be used to improve our elementary outdoor campus and learning space. Plans are in the works to involve our HS FFA to re-landscape some areas of our elementary in Washta.
Thank you to Mrs. Tish Evans for taking the time to write the grant, to Mr. Glienke (pictured), and the entire CCLF board for their generous gift.
We are super excited to get started!!
Good Evening,
This is just a friendly reminder about our fundraiser tomorrow (Wednesday, March 26) to help raise some money for the Shoumaker family. As we now know, Norbert, Dee, and Carson Shoumaker tragically lost their lives in a recent house fire.
Feel free to send a donation of any size with your child tomorrow to either the MS/HS in Correctionville or the elementary school in Washta. With that donation, they can wear a hat to school.
We are also finding out that Carson Shoumaker loved flashy socks, new boots, and cool looking tennis shoes. Therefore, your child is invited to also wear some of their favorite sneakers, boots, and flashy socks. Have them make it an outfit and do your part to help the Shoumaker family. Thanks in advance for your support:)
The students are practicing and getting ready for tonight! You will not find a band concert closer than this one!! Western Valley Conference Honor Band Performance starts at 6 p.m. $6 per person - cash only at the door. Middle School and High School - two separate bands.
Last week the River Valley Elementary preschoolers were able to reap or actually eat the rewards of winning the River Valley Elementary Penny Wars. It looks like they enjoyed themselves and had a fun time eating their ice cream treat:)
