See you tomorrow at Butter Braid Pick up!

Attention students who sold BUTTER BRAIDS and community members who purchased Butter Braids directly from the school:

Please remember to pick up your Butter Braid orders on Tuesday, November 14 from 3:00-4:30 pm in the Prairie Farm Elementary Multipurpose Room. The school does not have additional freezer space so the Butter Braids will need to be picked up before 4:30 pm that day.

Thank you for supporting our school. We greatly appreciate it!

Check out the song our kids sang for Veteran's Day - they did such a great job!

Reading with our 4th grade book buddies. Students look forward to this every week!

Learning to work together and share puzzle pieces takes a lot of patience and practice. Students are proud when they finish a puzzle together!

Everyone is doing a great job looking at and reading books every day. Each student has a special quiet spot to go to.

There are so many fun ways to practice numbers!

Crazy hair and crazy sock day!

One of the perks of being in a small school is being invited to watch the band practice for the homecoming show. We had a great time!

The students had a great time dressing up for their future career! It's a little hard to see, but in the individual pictures, they wrote down what they are going to be.

The past few years I have had people donate money for our Scholastic Book account, so each student could receive a book every month. Great news! I have enough left from last year to cover my students for this year! Thank you to all of our amazing supporters that donated.

This is a wonderful opportunity for Barron County families with school age children!

THIS SATURDAY - Free kids school supplies/backpacks & tons of fun!!

Sorting is a foundational skill that we work on a lot in kindergarten. The students were working on sorting and stringing the beads onto pipecleaners. They found some great ways to sort!
