Students of the month for January at Prairie High
School are Dan Riener, left, honor student, and Daniel Sigler, outstanding
student. Riener is a hardworking and responsible student who strives to
excel in the classroom. His work is always completed in a timely
fashion and if he is absent he is always prompt in finding out what he
missed. Dan also adds to class discussion and is eager to challenge
other students ideas which leads to greater learning and understanding.
Sigler participates in a variety of school sports, including football,
track, and basketball; however, these activities represent only a portion
of his commitments to our school and these communities. As an active member
of Health Occupations Students of America he represented Prairie last summer
in the national competition held in Anaheim. Now, he serves our communities
as a First Responder with St. Mary’s Hospital. He is available for ambulance
runs and enjoys this challenge. Daniel is also a member of the Ferdinand
Fire Department and is striving to prepare himself as a fire fighter.
Daniel has been learning from the bottom up in preparing for his fire fighting
duties. No work is beneath him; he has learned what low man on the totem
pole means. His desire to help earned him this recognition from the high
school staff at P.H.S.
