Yesterday, the River Valley 2nd graders got together to read the book, "Just Like Caitlin", The book tells the story of Caitlin Clark's life and also some important lessons of dreaming big and working hard. In addition, the students did some activities and learned even more things about Caitlin Clark and her rise to the WNBA.
The Jensen family gifted all 2nd graders in the state of Iowa her book. River Valley was also given a copy to place in their school library.
What an awesome gift and story to share!

Last week, six members of the RV FFA joined more than 70,000 FFA members, advisors, and guests from across the country at the 97th National FFA Convention and Expo in Indianapolis. The National FFA Convention is the largest annual youth organization gathering in the nation.
One of our FFA members, Andrea was honored to be selected as a National FFA Band Member and got to experience a different side of Convention than other members. Her experience was full of rehearsal, performances, and making close connections with FFA members from across the country.
Other members Tate, Cory, Kaylyn, Karlee, Brady, and Miss Gibson traveled together and had a fun-filled week. They attended the Convention and Expo for two days and experienced motivational sessions, workshops, an engaging career and college fair, met hundreds of other members, shopping malls, and downtown Indianapolis. FFA’s main message this year is to “Engage”. Students learned to engage in laughter, empathy, conversation, school, and every aspect of their life! Their week also consisted of many educational tours including Caterpillar Track Type Tractor Assembly Line, Lincoln Tech Campus, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, Churchill Downs, Louisville Slugger, and Harvest Home Dairy. They also had fun cooking meals in a house together, attending a rodeo, going go karting, and axe throwing.
The middle school and high school also had a pep rally at the end of the day to celebrate our Volleyball girls!! Good luck tonight ladies!!!
This morning our Volleyball team and Pep Band went to the elementary for a pep rally and high fives!! What a great way to start our day!!
