Cap and gown distribution was this morning for our seniors. Graduation for the Class of 2025 is quickly approaching.
THANK YOU! The East Prairie Positivity Committee was able to do so much for their building this school year (still some goodies left to come) because they had so many donations. These donations came from parents, teachers, and many businesses in our surrounding area. These donations increased our building morale in more ways than one throughout the year. Again, we want to say thank you! It would not have been possible without you!
The EP Scholastic Bowl Team has secured the number one seed in their regional tournament to be held on Wednesday, April 30, in Mt. Zion. Congratulations team.
Hello! 🌿✨🐯
We’re excited to share an update on our upcoming event for our K-Kids: Teacher Appreciation Week! It will be held from May 5th to 9th, and this year’s theme is “Relax and Renew.”
Our focus will be on giving the teachers’ lounge a mini makeover to create a relaxing space for them to unwind during their breaks. To make this possible, we’ve created an Amazon wishlist. If there are any generous donors who would like to contribute to this wonderful cause, we’d be grateful for their support.
Items can be sent to North Elementary!
