Welcome

Prairie View Elementary School is a school community dedicated to nurturing all students’ love of learning. We believe in igniting student and staff imagination through discovery. We believe that each person in our Prairie View community is a gift to the world and that all learners grow when we celebrate their strengths and uniqueness. 

Belief Statements 

• Meaning is constructed, not prescribed. 

• Brain growth occurs when we take intellectual risks and celebrate mistakes. 

• Learning is a naturally social and collaborative process. 

• Each student is a unique learner. 

• Students and staff are far more capable, imaginative, creative, and courageous than test scores might have us believe. 

Commitment to Prairie View Students - A Work in Progress

We are all a work in progress. We step closer to our desired outcomes at different paces. My commitment to each student is that our staff will do their very best to meet you where you are at and be a champion for your dreams. Too often going to school feels like a contract, following rules and passing tests in exchange for high praise and eventually a diploma. My dream is that going to school at Prairie View allows for a much different story. Our story is about the commitment we make to all students. It is a promise to be less transactional and more transformational. It is a promise to mentor and guide you. It is a promise to create the conditions necessary for generative learning. It is a promise to believe in you even when you question your own potential. You are a work in progress and that is what makes you special.
