Smash Out Cancer

Prairieview and Lakeview are in competition with Eisenhower and Lace schools to see who can collect more to fight cancer. I will be in the hall in the morning when the students arrive collecting dollars. For each dollar the student receives a Smash Cancer slip. They write someones name who has been touched by cancer on the slip. These slips will be displayed on the bulletin board next to the gym.

First Week Back

We made it! As difficult as it was for everyone I spoke to to get up on Tuesday, everyone was still happy about being back! This includes both staff and students. I have to admit I was kind of surprised by this. The first day back after winter break is traditionally a very hard day for many. It was a change and everyone agreed it was hard to wake up. Kids who get more nervous were more nervous and everyone was sleepy, but students and teachers alike were still enthusiastic and happy to be back as the week went on. I'm not sure how many schools get to say that. Prairieview is a pretty nice place to be.
