LAST Day to Order WRAP PACKS FOR 2024-25 - June 16th
It’s hard to believe that we are already thinking ahead to next school year! But it is that time to get ahead of things and knock one thing off your Summer to-do-list by purchasing a school supply wrap pack!
The PTA provides this service to families and teachers to make sure you can get your supplies in an easy, no-stress way. One of the best benefits of wrap packs is that EPI guarantees their products and will replace them at no cost (think headphones!).
Just go to www.educationalproducts.com/shoppacks
And enter code PRA013 (3 letters, 3 numbers) for our school list.
Questions? Email wrappacks@prairietrailpta.org
Please check your Lunch Account!
We have several students with outstanding cafeteria accounts. Please check to make sure your child does not owe any money. RevTrack Link
If you would like to donate to the Angel account, here is the link: https://lewisville.revtrak.net/r6#/v/ptes-angel-lunch-account-donation
Prairie Trail has about $300 in total money owed.
Countdown to 5th Grade

Yearbooks Delayed
Please see the letter from Balfour about the delay on our Yearbooks.
Valued Balfour Customer,
You are receiving this message because your Yearbook has been affected by unforeseen manufacturing delays, causing your books to be delivered after their originally scheduled dates. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and frustration this has caused.
We want you to know we are working hard to produce your books quickly and with great quality. In the meantime, we are working with your Yearbook Adviser on how to work through this challenging situation and move forward.
We want to acknowledge that these delays are not the fault of your Yearbook Adviser, Staff, or Sales Representative. They have worked diligently throughout the year, and your school should be proud of the work they have put into creating this publication.
Again, we sincerely apologize for the current situation. We know you will love your book when it arrives, and we have full confidence this will never occur again. We remain thankful for your continued patience and understanding and look forward to delivering your amazing yearbook.
Sincerely,
Balfour Management Team
What Does the Delay with Yearbooks Mean?
We are very disappointed that Balfour will not be able to deliver the yearbooks before the end of this school year. They are sending autograph books for all students who ordered a yearbook. These will be given to students as soon as we receive them. The autograph books can be added to the yearbook like an additional page in the book.
At this time Balfour cannot give us a delivery date. However, as soon as we know when we are receiving the books, we will arrange a pick up date and time.
We are also working with PTA to set up a couple of spirit nights where students can pick up their yearbooks at the restaurant and have their friends sign. We could also do an evening at PTE on the playground for signing and catching up with friends.
If you have additional questions or concerns, please reach out to Stacey Domzalski at domzalskis@lisd.net. She will be able to help you.
Sincerely,
Wendi Vaughn
Principal
