Yesterday I had the privilege of welcoming Grant and Evie as our Principal and Assistant Principal of the day. While I do not do this often, Grant didn't have the good luck of winning our Team 66 Super Raffle, but went to great efforts to raise money to help improve our school. It's exactly this kind of self-direction and giving your best that makes our school so special. He chose Evie as his "assistant principal" because of how kind she is to all students. We visited classrooms, lunch and recess, then enjoyed some pizza together. Thanks, Grant and Evie, for caring so much about our school!!

Each year, Principals around Dupage County gather to celebrate some of our students at the annual IPA Recognition Breakfast. Two students from each school are recognized based on the following criteria: show responsibility with regard to attendance and behavior; demonstrate pride, dignity, and respect in personal conduct and relations with others; act responsibly and encourage responsible actions by others; and be a positive person to know. At Prairieview, we recognize two 5th graders, and this year our winners are Colin V. and Sofia M. Thank you both - we are so proud of and grateful to your contributions to our school!

Every year around this time, the City of Darien hosts an Arbor Day event. It's attended by several area schools, the Morton Arboretum, and many other members of Darien's gardening and parks community. Our 3rd graders attend and release butterflies they have been caring for since they were in their larva stage. Thank you to the Gift of Carl Foundation for donating the butterflies and gift packets that come with them, as well as our 3rd grade team for taking the time to incorporate the "life cycle of a butterfly" into their teaching.

It has come to our attention that the time listed on some Saturday tickets may be displaying incorrectly when downloaded. Please note that the Saturday performance will begin at 6:00 PM.
The Friday performance remains at 7:00 PM as scheduled.
There is no need for concern—your tickets will still scan correctly at the event. Our main priority is making sure everyone arrives on time, so please plan accordingly using the correct show times above.
Thank you for your understanding, and we look forward to seeing you there!

The front desk is the heart of our school. When new students enroll in our district, when parents call with a question, or when students need help during the day, Mrs. Whitt is the first person they see. We are grateful for her kindness and support for students. Happy Administrative Assistants day, Mrs. Whitt!!
