Our PTO wants all of our students in Grades 3-5 to rock the test. They are asking for your help. They need healthy snacks to get them through this important testing time. Our PTO has graciously offered to provide the perishable items (like bananas and cuties ~ thank you, PTO!).

Our clinic is in need of several items. Your support would be greatly appreciated. If you would like to donate items to the Southlawn clinic, please click here. On the average, we have 40-45 students visiting the clinic each day. We are running low on items like Ziploc baggies, latex-free band aids, Dixie cups, saltine crackers and individually-wrapped peppermints for those upset tummies. We are so blessed to have our Mrs. Diana in our clinic. Her patience, compassion and care for your children is never ending.

Students who arrive after the 7:50am tardy bell will need to be signed in at the front office by an adult, for safety purposes. Tardies will only be excused for legitimate reasons such as appointments, emergencies or illness. Excuses such as "just late", sleeping in, missing the bus etc. do NOT constitute excused tardies. Students who are late to school should bring a note from their parent or guardian.

You know how there are times you just crave a burger? When you do, you're craving more than just meat on a bun. You want to hang out with your friends and family as you make a delicious mess with your own two hands. Let's make it happen!

We are running a fundraiser at Prairie Center's Red Robin March 14th. This will be a class contest. How will this work? Simple! Place your order, save your receipt for your order, write your student’s teacher name on the top of the receipt and send it into school the next day. Envelopes will be provided to each teacher to collect them in. If you have multiple children, please write both teacher names on top and both classes will receive credit. Only one receipt to one teacher and both classes will receive credit. Whichever class brings in the most receipts wins a donut party! The money raised from this event will go towards the End of the Year Celebration!

Thank you.
