What better way to end the year at Prairie Middle
School than with music and dancing. This past week the 8th grade
Teen Living class danced their socks off learning the Western swing, the
jitter-bug, the two-step and the waltz. They also perfected the Cotton-eye-Joe.
Maybe some of them should go on Dancing with the Stars!
