Father Daughter Dance Friday
Get ready dads! The Father-Daughter Dance is January 6 from 6:00-8:00 p.m. Join us for a night of fun at Prairie, including a DJ, photo booth, snacks and lots of dancing!
Tickets are $20 per person when you purchase in advance (cap at $60). Tickets will increase to $25 per person at the door.
If you didn't purchase the party at last year's auction you can order online here, drop off your payment in the office, or purchase tickets at the door.
Auction tickets for sale
The auction is Prairie's biggest fundraiser of the year and helps fund the school counselor, reading specialist and Spanish program. By purchasing your ticket, you are helping support these Prairie "extras."
Purchase your tickets today and join us for a night of fun Saturday, February 25 at the Vox Theater. It's quick and easy to purchase your tickets - just click here.
We can't have an auction without item donations! Each grade level contributes a themed basket for the auction. Here are the themes and contacts for each class:
K-Little Tot basket - Libby Pfeiffer
1st-Star Wars - Jessica Perbeck
2nd-Super Heroes - Kristen Anderson
3rd- Legos Basket - Nicole Clifford
4th-Tailgate Basket - Rachel LaHue
5th- Family Game Night - Sarah McKee and Jill Sides
6th- Adventure Basket - Merrit McShane
Please consider donating to your child's grade level basket. If you prefer not to shop, you can donate money toward purchasing basket items. No amount is too small or too big.
Be sure to post your photos on Prairie's private Shutterfly page. We will check photo releases of student's pictured and will select from these photos for the yearbook!
Just use these credentials to log in and post photos for your student's class.
This year we will be reading "Because of Winn-Dixie" by Kate DiCamillo for our One Book One School selection. This is a heartwarming story about a dog that helps a 10-year-old make friends.
Unfortunately, Scholastic was not able to get the book for us this year. Mrs. O'Neal is requesting copies from the district. This would make a great stocking stuffer or a family activity over Winter Break.
We hope that you will enjoy reading! Stay tuned for additional information for our OBOS week, January 23-26.
