Sayler Towell and Jocelyn Korth, with Mrs. Fehr serving as their mentor, completed a Youth Inspired Philanthropy (YIP) project through the Keith County Foundation Fund. Their project focused on creating and stocking an indoor recess cart for Prairie View Elementary.

The girls researched, polled students, and compiled a list of the most requested indoor recess items before presenting their idea to the YIP committee, where they were awarded funding for their project. With the wintery weather we’ve experienced lately, Prairie View students have loved having access to this fantastic new resource.

We are so appreciative of Sayler, Jocelyn, Mrs. Fehr, and everyone involved with YIP and KCFF for supporting our students and school!

Mrs. Staab’s Kinderbugs have been working hard to develop their reading fluency! To put this stellar skill into practice, students enjoyed partner reading. They shared stories, coached one another, and showed off their growing skills. Keep rocking and reading, kindergarteners!

🧥❄️ Winter Coat Drive Reminder ❄️🧥
There’s still time to donate to the OHS Key Club Winter Coat Drive! We are collecting clean, gently used winter coats, hats, scarves, and gloves to help keep our community warm.

📅 Donations accepted through February 6
📍 Drop-off location: Ogallala High School Office

Thank you for helping us share the warmth this winter!

Did you wear your coat today? 🤔 During the wintery weather, the Prairie View office decided to reward middle school students for coming to school bundled up. The real reward was staying warm outside, but a little goody is always a nice treat.

We love celebrating our OMS students who earned a 4.0 GPA during 2nd quarter! These students showed exactly what it means to OWN their learning through dedication, focus, and hard work. We are proud of you for doing things the OG Way! #CultureOfConfidence

Big cheers for our middle school students who earned a 3.5-4.0 GPA for the 2nd quarter! That kind of focus, effort, and determination does not happen by accident. You set goals, showed up, and crushed them. We see you, and we are proud of you. Keep aiming high, OMS!
