Galva Holstein 1st graders enjoyed learning about the importance of saving money from United Bank of Iowa today on their field trip. They also visited the Holstein Dairy and learned all about their day-to-day operations. They ended their field trip at Moorehead Park with a scavenger hunt, nature hike, and a bird beak buffet activity!

Last week our Big Raptor Little Raptor program wrapped up. This program matched high school students with GH Lower Elementary students. Students had fun with lots of activities including crafts and games. A great experience for all involved!

🌱 Schaller-Crestland 6th graders partnered with our preschool students to decorate planting containers and sow seeds together. It was a wonderful opportunity for older and younger students to collaborate, create, and learn side by side.

Ridge View High School's Home Decor class took advantage of sunshine and some donated perennials to emphasize the need for curb appeal in their future homes! Thanks to the Bisenius family for the opportunity!

Good luck to our HS Boys Golf team today as we host the Sectional Boys Golf Meet at the Country Club!!
