Advanced Welding sponsored a "Shoot for Cash" program
during the 2019-2020 basketball season. Free throws made by both
basketball teams notched $5.00 per make. The girls made 236 free
throws ($1,180) in the regular season and the boys made 228 free throws
($1,140). A check was presented to Prairie High School on Thursday,
March 5th for $2,320 to be used for the high school athletic program.
Advanced Welding will match that same total to be donated to a local charity
of their choice. Prairie High School would like to express our gratitude
for the support from Advanced Welding and Ryan and Heather Uhlenkott.
PHS looks forward to working with them in the future. Pictured with
the check is Ryan, Heather and Gage Uhlenkott along with PHS principal

6th Graders Make Good Choices a Habit!—Students in
Mrs. Kim Schumacher's class were treated to drinks and games at The Habit
as part of the school's newly adopted PBIS behavior plan. Cottonwood School
District formed a committee to look into a PBIS program and presented
it to the staff at the beginning of the year in-service. The staff
then took the information and designed a program to fit each building with
a Pirate theme of aaRRRgh - focusing on positive behavior through Responsibility,
Respect, and Readiness. You may have seen postcards recipients in the paper
throughout this school year from Jr/Sr High students. At PES, students
aren’t sent postcards but have been earning R3 cards. The cards are tallied
each month at the assemblies and then given back to the classroom teachers.
From there different teachers have chosen a variety of ways to encourage
students to keep up their positive behavior. Kim Schumacher, 6th-grade
teacher, created an R3 store where kids could use cards to purchase items.
For instance, for (2) R3 cards you can get the teacher's rolly chair for
a day or get a fruit snack. There are also items that cost (5) or (10)
R3 cards. For those who like to save for a larger reward, she developed
a list of things that cost (20) R3 cards. All six of her students saved
(20) cards each to purchase drinks and games at The Habit with their teacher.
According to Schumacher, a good time was had by all and definitely worth
the cost of the coffees! Pictured from left to right: Sydney Shears, Sage
Elven, Bre Fowler, Bailey Key, Mrs. Kim Schumacher, Phil Schwartz, and
Levi Gehring. Photo submitted by Kim Schumacher. Click on the photo for

its foundations and tossed it several hundred feet into her son Bilejo’s
pasture. The top 2 photos shows some of the remains of the shed out in
the pasture while the lower photo shows where it originally was with most
