Family Engagement Guide

PV Families - 

At Prairie View, we value the partnership with our families, parents, and caregivers. We will work together to strengthen our school, build relationships among families and educators, and center experiences and stories.  PV students will feel that they belong, as they see themselves and their culture represented, celebrated, and appreciated!

School Community Organization (SCO) - role, goals, and opportunities to participate and get involved

Join the Prairie View SCO!

Your Prairie View School Community Organization is a non-profit corporation made up of parents and caregivers that are dedicated to supporting the students, staff, administration, and community at PVMS.  We provide a variety of volunteers for events to support students and staff throughout the year such as:

  • after-school socials for each grade in the fall and spring
  • school fun run
  • 8th grade picnic
  • support staff with conference meals (fall and spring) and teacher appreciation events.

We would love to have you get involved volunteering at a school social, donating to an event or attending a monthly meeting (3rd Wednesday of the month during the school year.)
