The latest facility improvement at Mid-Prairie Community School District was officially christened with a lot of laughs, whoops, and smiles on Monday when students at West Elementary were able to finally climb, slide, hang, and spin on their new playground equipment following a ribbon-cutting attended by students, staff, and board members.
The University of Iowa Homecoming festivities included three different Mid-Prairie faces in the Homecoming parade and home football game. Megan Uden (MP Middle School Band Director) and Matthew McClellen (MP Alum) both participated in the University of Iowa Alumni (Fossil) Band. They were able to join the University of Iowa Marching Band to celebrate the festivities. Logan McClellen is a freshman this year in the U of I Marching Band.

Scarlett has had such a positive impact on our middle school. Being a new student isn’t always easy, but Scarlett has taken it head-on. Scarlett has joined multiple activities, even going out of her comfort zone to try an activity she has never done before. Scarlett is always asking questions, participating in class, and is always willing to look for ways to excel in her learning.
