🎓✨ Full Circle Moment ✨🎓

Today, we had the honor of welcoming back the Class of 2026 as they walked the halls of Prairie Branch Elementary one more time. 💛

From little learners to soon-to-be graduates, it was so special to see our former Mustangs return—this time in caps and gowns—cheered on by the students and staff who are following in their footsteps.

We are so proud of all you’ve accomplished and can’t wait to see where your journey takes you next. Once a Mustang, always a Mustang. 🐎💙

💙🐴 Our Mustang Mentors, led by Mrs. So, helped spread some extra joy during Teacher Appreciation Week by delivering special messages to our amazing staff! ✨

These thoughtful moments reminded our teachers just how appreciated they are each and every day. We’re so proud of our student leaders for helping make the week so meaningful! 💛

🐾💙 Duncan’s First Day = Success! 💙🐾

Our newest Prairie Branch staff member, Duncan, officially had his first day at school… and he’s already working hard (or hardly working 😉).

While Dr. Carroll and Mrs. Lopez were busy delivering teacher appreciation surprises, Duncan supervised from the cart… and quickly decided a nap was the best way to support the team 💤🐶

We’d say he’s settling in just perfectly already 💛

Welcome to the PB family, Duncan! 🐾✨

🐾 Big news! 🐾

We’re getting ready to welcome Prairie Branch’s new therapy puppy soon… Poppy or Duncan! 💛

Since our pup will be splitting time between home and Prairie Branch, we’ll need doubles of many items to keep things consistent in both places. 🐾

If you’d like to help us get ready (no obligation at all), we’ve created a puppy registry—anything from it or beyond is so appreciated.

Thank you for supporting our newest school family member! 🐶💛

Third graders had a "buzz-worthy" visit from local beekeepers to wrap up their unit on Life Cycles and Survival! Students loved sharing what they learned about the honeybee life cycle and had the chance to ask experts all their burning questions. Huge thanks to our guests for helping our young scientists see firsthand how bees impact our community and world!

🥁 Prairie Branch Sound Machine at Missouri Day of Percussion! 🥁
We are so proud of our students for an incredible performance this weekend! As the youngest group at the Missouri Day of Percussion, they blew us away with their talent and energy. 🌟
A huge thank you to Grain Valley South/North Middle Schools and Grain Valley High School for letting us travel with you—it was an amazing experience for our young musicians to perform alongside such great mentors. 🎶✨
Way to go, Sound Machine!

Our annual Art Show is coming up next Thursday!

We are so excited to showcase all of our ocean themed artwork and clay pieces that we have been working on this year. All students have 2 pieces of artworking hanging on the wall, a school wide mural, and a clay project that they can take home that night.

Our art show is an open house style that evening from 6-8:00PM. Looking forward to seeing all of our Mustang artists!
