There are many ways for Prairie families to get involved at school.
The truth is, hosting many events such as these takes a significant amount of support from Prairie families and the community. We couldn’t do it without our “village”!
Whether you commit for an hour per year, or an hour per week, we have a volunteer role that is perfect for you! Not able to make it to daytime events? We have many events at night, on the weekend, or volunteer opportunities behind the scene.
Volunteering at Prairie, and through the PTA, is one of the most impactful ways to enhance the education of your child and other children at Prairie.
Below are just a few of opportunities we have. Ready to get involved? Fill out our volunteer interest form here.
