The Richland Center Fire Department recently visited Ithaca School to present their annual fire safety demonstration. The generosity and professionalism shown to Ithaca students each year is invaluable in creating community connections as well as exploring fire safety. Thank you for sharing these important lifelong lessons with our students!
Many of Ithaca's FFA members recently attended a FFA leadership conference. They had a great two days at Chula Vista for the conference and activities.
The juniors and seniors attend Impact and the freshmen and sophomores went to Mission with a total of 21 FFA members attending! Workshops went until 9:15 on Thursday night and then the kids had fun at the dance and playing corn hole. Friday was a full day of three more workshops. The members all brought items for the State FFA officer food drive to help stock the shelves of food pantries.

Word of the Day:
Eccentric: people of things that deviate from the norm, especially in odd or whimsical ways - The college professor was well known for his eccentric personality.
On This Day in History:
On November 18, 1978, Peoples Temple founder Jim Jones lead hundreds of his followers in a mass murder-suicide at their commune in a remote part of the South American nation of Guyana. Many of Jones’ followers willingly ingested a poison-laced punch while others were forced to do so at gunpoint. The final death toll at Jonestown that day was 909; a third of those who perished were children.

Not just Bulldogs in the building! We had special visitors in the 1st Grade classroom today. 🐾 Sergeant Schildgen and his incredible K9 partner, Aron, stopped by to make new friends and show us the fun, friendly side of community policing. These visits are all about building positive connections and trust, one paw print at a time. It’s wonderful seeing smiles all around!

Heyday: a period of great popularity or prosperity - In its heyday, the circus was a major form of entertainment for the small town.
On This Day in History:
On November 17, 1968, the Oakland Raiders scored two touchdowns in nine seconds to beat the New York Jets—and no one watching from home saw it. With just 65 seconds left to play, NBC switched off the game in favor of its previously scheduled programming, a made-for-TV version of the movie “Heidi.” Viewers were outraged, and they complained so vociferously that network executives learned a lesson they’ll never forget: “Whatever you do, you better not leave an NFL football game.”
