The
6th graders at Prairie Elementary School participated in a Service and
Citizenship project on Thursday, May 18th. They picked up 5 bags
of garbage and then left a beautiful gift in exchange by spreading some
wildflower seed! Look for their contribution as you enjoy any
future flowers blooming at the entrance to Cottonwood! This project is
part of the Character Trait Building Program that is offered year long
at our school. Thank you 6th graders for giving back! Photo
