South Prairie FFA and Sources of Strength have teamed to do the Donate December competition. We usually collect food items to put together meals for our Christmas Wish Dinner program and then deliver them the last day of school before the break. However, due to COVID, we have decided to still have a competition school-wide but instead of donating food items, students can donate cash. We will then determine our winners by how much each class raised. We will give away a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place prize. Our goal is for our school, PK-12, to raise $1,000 with donations and $1500 overall. FFA has already agreed to donate $500. The proceeds will be used to give each family in need all the ingredients for a nice Christmas Dinner. We ask that students take their donations to their 1st hour teacher. Thank you!

𝐔𝐩𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐞/𝐂𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐧 𝐌𝐚𝐬𝐤𝐬: This is a clarification regarding the Governor's recent executive order. The statewide mask mandate includes all schools in the state. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐚𝐬𝐤 𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐞𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐩𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐂𝐀𝐍 𝐬𝐨𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞. This means masks must be worn at all times. The only exception is during physical education class. As a school district, our goal is to support the academic and social/emotional well-being of our students. For the next four weeks, I'm asking for your support to ensure we follow these rules and keep our kids in school for in-person learning. Those parents/students choosing to not follow the Governor's mask mandate will be allowed to enter into the distance learning instructional delivery platform. Thank you for your patience and support. -Mr. Stanley

SOUTH PRAIRIE SCHOOL- Parents- Due to Governor Burgum's executive order late Friday at 10:00 p.m. The order addresses a statewide mask mandate as well as the postponement of K-12 school district extracurricular activities, we are going to wait until further clarification is provided on Monday afternoon. This will give some time for the school district and school board to address any potential changes in the South Prairie School District operations. The school district will communicate all changes as they are enacted so parents and families are aware of revisions to our current school health and safety plan from the state or school board level. On Monday, November 16, we encourage students and staff to wear masks and to social distance, staying at least 6 feet apart. We will NOT hold any extra curricular practice on Monday. Thank you for your continued support of South Prairie School.
