Good morning, West Prairie! Want to spend a day outside and knock out some service hours?
On May 11th, we’re heading to Argyle Lake State Park for a landscaping and weeding Service Project. Interested Students must be in high school and in good standing. Spaces are limited, so don't get left behind! Email Mrs. Leenerts or stop by the main office today to sign up. Let's get to work!
After Prom forms are in the office…. All forms must be filled out and returned by today if you are planning to attend this year’s after prom
Students, just a quick reminder of our expectations for arrival. When you get to school, please come straight into the building. Students should not remain in vehicles or hang out in the parking lot once they arrive on campus.
FIELD TRIPS & EARLY DISMISSALS
As we move into the spring season, there will be more early dismissals for athletics, field trips, and other activities.
As a reminder, if you miss class, you are responsible for completing any missed work. Be sure to communicate with your teachers in advance to find out expectations and deadlines.
When returning from a field trip, report directly to the class that is in session. This is not free time—do not wander the halls or spend extended time in restrooms. Any student who does not report to class upon return is marked as absent-unexcused.
