Tonight is Kindergarten Round-Up Night 2026! We invite all current Galva PreK students going into Kindergarten next year as well as all non-Galva students who will be attending Kindergarten in 2026-2027. Please enter through the Gymnasium Doors. The event will begin at 5:30 PM. See you there!
PreK-2 students enjoyed a safety presentation from Ameren today. Thank you for teaching our students about electricity and natural gas.
The Galva Girls Jr. high track team had some amazing accomplishments at our sectional on Saturday!
Of course we need to congratulate our state qualifier, Ellie Sellers! She qualified in all three of her events (100 m, 100 hurdles, and high jump) by placing 1st! She also ran her season's best time in 100 m, finishing in 13.92 s.
Ellory Glasser also had a huge day finishing 2nd in 200 m and long jump! She set new personal bests in both events. She ran her 200 m in 31.32 s and jumped 3.92 m in long jump!
Ceci Appell ran her season's best time in 100 m, 16.36 s and she set a new personal best in 400 m, 1:19.79!
Chloe Anderson set a new personal best in shot and discuss. She threw 5.10 m in shot and 13.96 m at disc!
Parker Kaiser ran her season's best time in the 1600 and was just over her personal best, with a time of 6:57.27!
Lastly the 8th grade girls 4x100 (Ceci Appell/Ellory Glaser/Lola Leaf/Sam Fox) set a new best time of 1:04.13!
Congrats on a great season ladies, we're proud of you!
Good luck on Friday May 15 and Saturday May 16 when these young athletes travel to Eastside Center East Peoria to compete in the IESA state track and field finals. We are sending D'Montray Rush, Elizabeth Sellers, Brigham Carasca, Jax Williams and the 7th Grade Relay Team! Go Cats!
Both of our throwers made the finals in discus! We love the points and Top 10 finishes. That is huge on a team of only 8 young men. Great job Bubb and Ben!

As we wind down our Teacher Appreciation Week 2026, I want to offer a sincere thank you to all of our teachers at Galva Elementary School. Behind the scenes, hours of worry, care, and planning are put into the final product that we know as an 8:00-3:00 session. A career in education requires a depth of compassion and dedication that our students deserve. The teachers at Galva Elementary are a special group of people and I am so grateful for the time and energy they dedicate in ensuring our students are safe, loved, and learning. THANK YOU today and always!
The second grade was excited to have Kristine Anderson from the State Bank of Toulon. as their Junior Achievement volunteer this year. Kristine helped them learn about our community. They were sad that it was her last week to be in the classroom with them, but she did bring sunglasses and bubbles for everyone to help start out the days leading up to their summer break. Thanks Kristine and the State Bank of Toulon!
