A new grade level means new tools to explore! Mrs. Kaskey's first graders jumped right in with K’NEX, using wheels, rods, and connectors to create some pretty impressive structures. With a little imagination and a lot of creativity, there’s no telling what they’ll build next!

Morning Drop-Off Safety Reminder

To ensure the safety of all students during morning arrival, we ask for your cooperation with the following drop-off procedures:

Use the circle drive only for quick drop-off. Please remain in your vehicle and do not park in the circular drive at any time.

If you use the parking lot, you must park in a designated stall. Children should exit the vehicle only after you have parked.

All students walking from the parking lot must use the crosswalk to safely reach the school building.

Do not use the parking lot as a drive-through drop-off area without parking your vehicle.

Morning drop-off can be chaotic, and student safety is our number one priority. Following these procedures helps keep traffic moving smoothly and, most importantly, keeps our students safe. A photo is attached for your reference.

Thank you for your cooperation and support in keeping our school community safe.

Last week, Prairie View kindergarten, first grade, and second grade teams came together for their fall data dives. Classroom teachers, Title I teachers, and special education teachers worked side by side to look at student needs, celebrate strengths, and develop comprehensive plans to help every learner grow. At Prairie View Elementary, supporting students is a team effort. When educators collaborate, share ideas, and bring their expertise to the table, we create stronger teams and more opportunities for every student to succeed and thrive. That’s the power of working together for kids! #CultureOfConfidence

Local businesses, put your business in front of OG Nation!

Advertising opportunities are available on the ScoreVision screen at Ogallala High School, giving local businesses a chance to be seen while supporting OHS students and activities.

And there’s more happening behind that screen than you might realize! The ScoreVision content is run and produced by students in Mrs. Tuttle’s OHS Journalism class, giving students hands-on experience creating content for our school and community.

Interested in getting your business on the screen? Contact OPSD Activities Director Dano Stokey at 308-284-4029 or danostokey@opsd.org.

Thank you to the businesses already supporting this opportunity and our students!

There are so many ways to communicate! 🤟Ms. Armijo, SLP, and Mrs. Orr, SLPA, spent time in Mrs. Peterson’s classroom helping students explore American Sign Language (ASL) and discover another way we can share our thoughts, needs, and ideas with others. Learning different ways to communicate helps us build connections, better understand one another, and make sure every voice has a way to be heard! #CultureOfConfidence

Mr. Ochsner, Prairie View music teacher, shared his time and talents with our Tiny Trails PreK students! The little learners sang and moved along to silly songs, including the “Stand Up, Sit Down” song, and explored music through colorful scarves. It was a joyful experience filled with movement, laughter, and fun!

This week, 3rd-grade students in Mrs. Satterfield's classroom were able to dig into the math curriculum, and students jumped right in with a challenge: How can we efficiently count a large collection of cubes?

Students worked together, tested different strategies, and discovered that grouping the cubes into sets of 10 and skip counting was much more efficient than counting each cube one by one.

And where is all this number sense leading? Multiplication! Even better, nearly everyone in the class said multiplication is what they’re most excited to learn this year.

A great start to 3rd grade math!
