We’ve been having so much fun participating in Run on the Prairie, Field Day, Pando Star Awards, assemblies, buddy classrooms, Spring Family Engagement Night, and celebrating our CHS graduates that we’ve forgotten to post pictures! 📸🎉

📚✨ Happy National Library Week! ✨📚

Libraries are more than just books; they’re spaces for learning, creativity, and connection. From discovering new stories to accessing resources and technology, libraries open doors to endless opportunities for people of all ages.

This week, we celebrate the important role libraries and librarians play in our communities. They inspire curiosity, support education, and provide a welcoming space where everyone can explore, grow, and succeed.

Take some time this week to visit your local library, check out a new book, or thank a librarian for all they do! ❤️

🥚✨ Golden eggs are dropping DAILY around Prairie and your student is on a QUEST! Some kids are finding them and snagging prizes, while one creative soul even brought their own oversized golden egg (we're still laughing about that! 👀). With just 4 school days left in April, every day counts as another golden opportunity. Who's finding the next one? 🏆
