Good Morning River Valley,
This post is a spin-off of our recent one on the Shoe Party. We are so proud of our kiddos and their thoughts of giving and their eagerness to help out. Mrs Witt played a big role in orchestrating the event below. This just beams "The Spirit of Giving". Enjoy the read:)
This holiday season, River Valley's 7th grade English class has been reading "A Christmas Carol." From the beginning, they decided to sponsor a "Who is the Most UNSCROOGIEST Class of All" at River Valley High School. All MS/HS classes participated in the contest. Posters and fliers were made to advertise the contest, and the 7th graders decided to do the event in honor of Mr. Don Parrott. A total of $654 dollars was raised during the two week event! The 6th graders raised the most with the 7th grade coming in second. With some of the money raised, our River Valley National Honor Society students went out and purchased a toy for each Shoe Party kiddo this year. The remaining amount was donated to Nancy Parrott and the Shoe Party.
Orders for basketball photos from Stevenson Studios Photography must be in by Friday!

Remember that career fair that our juniors and seniors went to at Woodbury Central? UBI out of Moville was also there and had a guessing game for the students. They had to guess how many kernels of corn was in the plastic piggybank. On Friday, Craig Plendl with UBI came to school to congratulate Mari Cruz on being the winner!! Way to go Mari from Spain!!
Last week, River Valley Elementary was fortunate to partake in Washta's annual Shoe Party. With the help of the Parrott Family, River Valley's High School National Honors Society students, River Valley's High School Student Council, and countless Washta Church of faith congregation, many student from the elementary are able to receive a pair of new shoes and many other items including: hats, gloves, and school supplies).
Don and Nancy Parrot started the Shoe Party 15 years ago and to date have given away approximately 1,200 pairs of shoes and many other needed items to our area's youth! What an unbelievable example of the "Spirit of Giving". Thank you Nancy, the Parrott family, the congregation of the Washta Church of Faith, and our HS student helpers for all their help and generosity! River Valley Elementary is forever thankful!
Here is a Christmas gift idea for you! It is ready to go and all you have to do is pick it up! (Orders can be taken also) The Industrial Arts Class has this raised flowerbed available for sale.

Call the business office if interested.
Last Friday, River Valley's 3rd grade took its monthly trip to Correctionville's Assisted Living Center. The teacher, paras, and students spent time celebrating the holiday season with the residents. One other thing they celebrated was Alice Volkert. She has made hundreds of hats, mittens, and more for the students at River Valle over the years! The students showed their appreciation by wearing one of those special hats Alice made!
On behalf of River Valley Elementary, thank you Alice for your dedication to keeping our students warm and toasty!
Join us tonight to help you get into the Christmas spirit!
Join us tonight for Basketball in Moville!
