This week is Bus Safety Week and RV Elementary is using this week to emphasize the need to practice good bus safety. Mr. Knaack and Deputy Zane worked together to talk to the students about why it is important to be safe on and around a bus. Mr. Knaack reviewed the bus rules and Deputy Zane talked about many things including the need to stay in your seat and in a seatbelt. Then each classroom practiced how to evacuate a bus in the case of an emergency.
Classroom teachers also reinforced many of the topics with some classroom activities.

High school girls finished 3rd
High school boys finished 5th

Today RV's second grade took a trip to Hoeflings' Pumpkin Patch and Corn Maze near Marcus, IA.
The students learned about a variety of pumpkins and gourds. They also learned about the life cycle of a pumpkin. The students were able to ride on a hayride through a spooky forest and twisted and turned through the corn maze. Additional, the students watched demonstrations on how to use an old fashioned corn shucking and drying machine.
It was a great day!
