Turkey Valley Community School District

We are deeply thankful for ALL our volunteer firefighters that take care of our Turkey Valley community! Thank you to Waucoma Fire Dept for judging Fire Prevention Week posters and thank you to all our area fire departments for treating our poster winners to a ride to school in a fire truck! Also, a HUGE thank you to Jerry Vrzak for taking a morning out of his busy harvest season to teach our students about fire prevention and fire safety. Jerry reminds our students about checking batteries in smoke alarms, the importance of knowing how to exit and having a family meeting spot, the safe ways to charge our devices, and for showing our younger students what a firefighter looks and sounds like when responding to fires. This year's theme was "Charge into Fire Safety: Safe Charging is a Superpower". Congrats to our posters winners! Have a safe weekend Trojans!

September 17 is Constitution Day in the United States. It marks the day the Constitution was signed and sent to the states for ratification. Each year, in Ms. Nystel’s government class, the seniors register to vote.
