Knudsvig Returns to Central Valley

Just two months after his vehicle collided with a train near Buxton, leaving him seriously injured, Central Valley senior, Jack Knudsvig, returned to Central Valley High School. Students, staff, and community members gathered Tuesday afternoon to welcome Jack back with a standing ovation. 

Jack shares his gratitude for being able to come back home.

Jack thanks the staff at the Craig Hospital in Colorado and talks about a key moment there in his recovery.

Jack shares a strong piece of advice on driving safely.

Jack’s mother, Erica, thanks not just the Buxton community, but surrounding communities for their support.

Both Erica, and Jack’s father, David, say that there was plenty of positivity in the recovery process.

Jack is hoping to be back in the classroom at the start of the second semester. You can also see photos from Tuesday’s welcome back on our KRJB/KRJM/KKCQ Radio Facebook page.
