Galva CUSD 224

Ms. Brynn, our 2nd grade student teacher, has started a graphing activity to go along with our Social Studies unit on the Olympics. The kids were anxious to put up the medals that were won over the weekend by six different countries. Go Team USA!

Thank you to Shelli and Amy for teaching our students the importance of dental health and how to take good care of our teeth. This was a great way to kick of National Pediatric Dental Awareness Month.

Congratulations to three Galva FFA / Galva High School graduates as they pursue the American FFA Degree.
C. Ruhl, M. Craig, and C. O’Brien have successfully submitted their SAE records and American FFA Degree applications and are interviewing this week.
The American FFA Degree is the highest level of membership an FFA member can achieve, and these outstanding individuals have advanced to the final round of interviews—an incredible accomplishment.

We wish them the very best of luck and send a big Wildcat shout-out to let them know how proud we are of all they’ve achieved! 💙💛

The second grade has been learning about Abraham Lincoln during their Social Studies time. We have just started working on recognizing coins for our math series also. We have had talks about how the penny is starting to be phased out while reading in our Time for Kids magazines. We enjoyed making some Abraham Lincoln crafts to hang up to decorate the hallway.

A great group of Galva FFA freshmen and sophomores attending the WIU FFA Ground Zero Leadership Conference and developing their leadership skills.
