Prairie Grove Jr. High School

Today, the Washington County Sheriff's Department visited Prairie Grove Junior High to educate students about drug safety and prevention. The highlight of the presentation was a live demonstration by their K9 unit, showcasing how these highly trained canines detect narcotics. Thank you to our local law enforcement for bringing awareness and empowering our students to make safe and informed choices!

At last night’s board meeting, we proudly recognized Kelbie Osburn and Breanna Fitzgerald for their outstanding contributions to our district. Both were honored with a special gift from Arvest Bank as a token of appreciation for all that they do. Thank you, Kelbie and Bre, for making a difference every day!
