Community Service Opportunity...

The Wisconsin DNR has a great opportunity for families to get involved with some exciting research. They will be catching newborn deer fawns and putting tracking collars on them to learn more about their survival rates in a Chronic Wasting Disease endemic area. Fawns are born in a relatively short period near the end of May, so we do a lot of work in a relatively short time window. Volunteers can assist in this effort by helping to search for, and capture, fawns as part of daily “search crews”. Volunteers meet at the Dodgeville DNR building and are shuttled to field sites where they help form a line that sweeps fields for newborn fawns.  This is a lot of fun and a neat experience to see, and handle, fawns. The DNR shuttles volunteers, provides water, and coordinates the searches. Anyone who is 12 or older can participate with an accumpanying adult. So, bring your parent and siblings. 

To sign up, send an email to Caitlin Henning caitlinhenning@wisconsin.gov or visit them on-line at https://dnr.wi.gov/topic/research/projects/dpp/

 

 

 

RVA Snow Day today....

Yes, you heard right...the RVA is having a "Snow Day".  Because our students do home-based education, it's not necessary for us to ever cancel school due to weather, so we thought it would be fun to take a break and do something with our teachers and students on this day :)

Your teachers have put together a fun schedule from 10:00 - 2:00 for students who just want to take a day off from regular school and join in we are excited to spend some time with you on-line!  Take a look at the schedule of events.
