Get Your Paws on a Good Book
Our students have been challenged to get their "Paws on a Good Book". During the month of April our students will be challenged to read a certain amount each week. Our staff sent pictures of their dogs for everyone to check out and for the students to be reminded to "get their paws on a good book." Our cooks have been getting in on the fun creating fun treats for the students to have. The students also had a great opportunity to listen and meet teen author and illustrator Kady Toole.
Giving From the Heart
Our students challenge "Giving From the Heart Challenge" in February, continued to flow over into the month of March. Our final hearts have been added to the walls in the cafeteria. Stop by and see how each of student's gave from the heart.
Thank You!
Rock Valley Christian would like to thank all the reading sponsors who helped support each K-2 reading month throughout the school year. Thanks to these sponsors, we were able to purchase fun incentives that correlated with the reading theme for the month. These months have challenged students to grow as readers and have cultivated excitement for reading at RVCS.
September: Read to a Pet (Modern Woodman)
October: Camping Theme (Premier)
November: Turkey Theme (Texas Roadhouse)
December: All-School Reading Challenge (RVCS)
January: Amazing Race (People's Bank)
February: Read for the Win (Hegg Health Center)
March: March Madness (CoOp)
We are currently seeking new sponsors for our 2024-2025 school year. If you or your business are interested, please contact Haeley Faber at haeley.faber@rockvalleychristian.com.
