Week Seven: October Is Here!!!
Week seven brought the arrival of October and we are here for it!!! October is a beautiful month at Prairieview as the playground takes on a beauty of its own. The morning air is crisp, the leaves are starting to change colors, and the students at Prairieview are finding their groove in the classroom. There is a lot of great learning going on here.
This week we had our evacuation drill and the students did a fantastic job. The PV staff was extremely proud of the way everyone listened and followed directions.
We have our second PTO meeting of the year this Tuesday, October 8 at 5:30 p.m. Please see the Zoom link below. We would love to see more parents get involved. Many hands make light work.

π΅πΆπ΅ Our 2nd Graders Went To The Symphony π΅πΆπ΅
On Thursday our 2nd graders had the opportunity to go downtown and enjoy the Battle Creek Symphony Orchestra's production of "Fantastic Beats". This was a great opportunity for our 2nd grade classrooms and they thoroughly enjoyed it. They loved that they recognized some of the songs that were performed from popular movies like Pirates Of The Caribbean and How To Train A Dragon. A huge Sparty Shout-Out to our music teacher Mrs. Myall for organizing this wonderful experience for our 2nd graders.

ππ A Note From Food Service ππ
All students at Prairieview Elementary receive free breakfast and lunch. If your child would like an extra entree (example: two slices of pizza on Friday) they can be purchased for $2.25. This needs to be communicated and paid for when they order lunch in the morning so the lunchroom can plan accordingly. Milk is also available for $0.70 for those that carry a cold lunch.
