Moran Prairie Elementary School

For the past 5 weeks, Ferris High School students in the Early Childhood Development class have partnered with kindergarten and first grade students at Moran Prairie! In Mrs. Chisholm’s class, students worked together to practice and perform different fairy tales, building creativity, confidence, and connections along the way. We loved seeing our older and younger students learn and grow together! ✨📚🎭

In honor of Memorial Day, there will be no school on Monday, May 25.

On this day, we pause to remember and honor the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. Wishing our school community a safe, long weekend surrounded by friends and family.

What a wonderful night at our annual Spring Blacktop Concert Series! 🎶 Our students did an amazing job singing and playing recorders, and it was incredible to see so many families and community members there to support them.

Thank you to Mrs. Shaw for putting together such a great performance and helping our students shine!

Our Moran Prairie 5th graders had a great time at the Spokane Public Schools 5th Grade Career Fair! Students had the opportunity to explore a wide variety of careers, ask questions, and learn about different paths they may be interested in for the future.

SCHEDULE REMINDER: There will be no school on Friday, May 22, for an unused weather makeup day and on Monday, May 25, in observance of Memorial Day.

We hope students and staff enjoy a restful, reflective long weekend. We will see everyone on our regular start schedule on Tuesday, May 26, 2026. Find this year’s calendar at SpokaneSchools.org/Annual-Calendar

Prairie Dogs take on the Jr. Lilac Parade!

A huge shoutout to our amazing Safety Patrol and Cheer Team for representing our school with pride, spirit, and leadership. We loved seeing your smiles and energy during the Jr. Lilac Parade! 🎉

Our 5th Grade Kindness Squad recently visited Second Harvest Inland Northwest to learn more about food insecurity in our community and the many ways people can help support others.

Students asked thoughtful questions, explored what civic responsibility looks like in action, and reflected on how even small acts of kindness and service can make a big impact. Experiences like this help us continue building kind, compassionate, and community-minded humans who understand the importance of caring for one another.

Fun fact... they packed over 4,277 pounds of pears!! We are so proud of the empathy, curiosity, and leadership our Prairie Dogs showed during this meaningful learning experience! 💙🐾
