The volleyball games tonight are going to be played in Max! There will be taco in a bag served for their community dinner, so plan to come hungry!
𝙋𝙖𝙧𝙚𝙣𝙩/𝙏𝙚𝙖𝙘𝙝𝙚𝙧 𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙛𝙚𝙧𝙚𝙣𝙘𝙚𝙨 are next week, October 25th and 26th from 4:00 to 7:00 p.m. We hope to see everyone there! Along with it being a great opportunity to meet teachers, keep up with your child’s progress in class, and ask any questions, it is also a great time to check out these other great events:
-2021 Annual Fall Parent Information Event for Title I and Title III (High School Commons Area): Stop by anytime during conferences to learn more about Title I and III programs which include Math, Reading, and English Language Learners and provide us with feedback to promote the growth of our programs. There will be a survey for you to complete that can earn you a Book Fair raffle ticket for your child[ren].
-Scholastic Book Fair in the Library: The book fair will be open during conferences for you to stop by and shop! When you come to conferences, you will receive a raffle ticket that you can enter in a drawing as well. Don’t forget to stop by and check it out!
The football team is working with Minot Community Action to help pack their emergency pantry! Please help out by donating some items if you can.
Just a note to our fans, students, and parents: Kids are not allowed to stay at the school until the football game. They must go home, either on the bus or get a ride, and then they can return later for the game.
Also, from now on, at all home volleyball and basketball games, kids must sit in the stands and be supervised. They are not allowed to run around or hang out in the commons area without supervision.
Congratulations to Annaliese Rauschenberger for making the NW honors choirs and Rayna Falcon for making the NW cantabile choir!
💗Pink Out Night is tomorrow, October 12th! Wear pink to school and the volleyball game tomorrow night vs. Surrey!
Tonight the varsity football team takes on WGN at home starting at 7:00 p.m. !
Tonight is also the Little Royals night for football and cheerleading! All kids who are participating should meet at 6:15 (cheerleaders in front of the bleachers and football players at the west end zone). This event will run from 6:15 to 7:00 p.m. kickoff.
Tonight is also the night that one lucky person will be drawn to have a chance to kick a field goal and win some cash for themselves and our school! You can register at the ticket booth as you enter the game or at the concession stand after the game starts. If you make the field goal, you get $200 and our school gets $1000. You can also choose to have someone else kick it for you and split the $200.
Students in grades 6-12, please take time to complete this survey about the block schedule.

South Prairie Parents,
A partnership between a school district and its families is key to ensuring that students are making choices that are in their best interest. That’s why South Prairie School Administration and School Board are joining together in this message.
A series of monthly pranks or “challenges” is spreading on the social media platform, TikTok. These include a list of actions users are being encouraged to participate in that may be dangerous, inappropriate, or illegal.
The challenge for October asks students to “Slap a Teacher.” Last month, TikTok users were challenged to destroy restrooms and other school property. While the October “challenge” has not happened at South Prairie School, we did see damage to some of our restrooms. As a school district, we want our students and families to know this behavior will not be tolerated. We ask that you monitor your children social media accounts, talk to them about responsible and respectful cell phone use, and discuss the consequences of participating in these “challenges” such as suspension or expulsions from school, paying restitution, as well as possible criminal charges.
That being said, we know that the vast majority of our students do the right thing every day, are proud of their school, and grateful for their teachers and custodial staff. We thank them for showing school pride and valuing their school culture.
The safety of all students and staff is always our first priority. Should you have any questions, please reach out to your child’s principal or superintendent. Thank you for your support and cooperation.
Wayne Stanley, Superintendent
There will be a PTO meeting tomorrow, Tuesday 10/05, at 6:30 pm in Mrs. Zietz's classroom.
HALFTIME CONTEST
To enter your name into the drawing, you can sign up in the South Prairie commons area ahead of time or that night at the game. The drawing will be held at the game that night.
South Prairie Sources of Strength is collecting any new or used South Prairie clothing items that your kids have outgrown or no longer wear. The Booster Club will have a used clothing discount rack at the sporting events. Please make sure clothing items do not have any names on them, are in good condition, and are turned in clean. They can be given to Mrs. Cooper at the HS office, Mrs. Peterson at the Elementary Office, or dropped off at any home event where the clothing is sold. Thank you so much for your donations!
South Prairie DOES have school tomorrow.
Other area schools don’t for teacher professional development, so we just want to clarify that we do have school as scheduled.
