Hey Panthers, today is World Kindness Day. Spread a little kindness today!
Congratulations to the Prairie Grove Jazz Band 1 on having been selected to perform at the next Illinois Music Education Conference! IMEC is the statewide annual conference for Illinois music teachers, and performance at the conference is one of the highest honors a band in the state of Illinois can receive. Because this year’s conference will not be held in-person, the band’s invitation has been extended to the IMEC in January, 2022. Congratulations to the Jazz Band 1 student musicians, past and present, on this incredible honor!

Jazz Band 1 and Advanced Band were just informed that they received Division 1 (Superior) Ratings at IGSMA (Virtual) District Contest! Jazz Band 1 even received a perfect score from one judge. Both bands therefore qualified for State Competition, had it been held this year. Fantastic work, Panthers!!
While the in-person contest was originally scheduled for mid-March, it transitioned into an online format where recordings of the bands performing could be sent in for adjudication instead. The results took some time due to the ever-changing nature of world events, but the results are finally in, and we could not be more proud of the band students! Their hard work on challenging music certainly paid off.

Hello Prairie Grove Families:
On Wednesday, April 8th, between 2:30 pm and 3:00 pm, the Prairie Grove Bus Drivers want to give their students a shout out to say “We miss all of you” by driving through the neighborhoods. Our buses will drive slowly up and down as many streets as possible waving and tooting their horns.
In keeping with the social distancing guidelines, we ask that everyone stay at home and wave to the buses from their windows, doors, or driveways. Please do not go to the bus stop. Also, we cannot stop to talk.
Please know that the Prairie Grove Bus Drivers truly miss seeing all their students’ smiling faces and we hope that everyone stays safe and well.
We are in this together, Panthers!
