Dear Prairieview Parents and Guardians,
Now that winter has officially arrived and the temperature and snow are falling, please
remember the 5 points. Our students have outside recess on most winter days. It is
important that they be dressed for the snow. In order to play on the field or playground
equipment on snowy days, children must have “5 points,” which are snow pants, boots,
gloves/mittens, a winter coat, and a hat. The blacktop provides a play area for children
who are not dressed for the snow. Thank you for your help.
Welcoming a new year provides a great time for reflection and thankfulness. One way we
show thankfulness for one another at Prairieview is by embracing our new FISH
Philosophy. The FISH Philosophy is comprised of four major ideas: Being There for one
another, Choosing A Great Attitude, finding ways to Play, and taking time to Make
Somebody’s Day. We take time each and every week to celebrate one another with a
FISH ticket.
*Making My Day
*Choosing A Great Attitude
*Being Playful
*Being Present
!
We as a staff would like to take this opportunity to celebrate all of the families at
Prairieview for participating in the FISH Philosophy even if you weren’t aware of it.
Thank you for Being Present in our school community, finding ways to Play by attending
all of our extra events, Choosing a Great Attitude and working as a team with our school
staff, and most importantly Making Our Day by sending your kids to Prairieview and
allowing us to make a difference in their lives.
If you would like to participate further in our building philosophy and acknowledge a
Prairieview staff member, we invite you to fill out a FISH ticket available in the front
office. Together we will continue to make Prairieview a great place for kids!
Sincerely,
The Prairieview Staff

Estimados Padres y/o encargados de Prairieview,
Ahora que oficialmente ha llegado el invierno y la temperatura y la nieve caen,
recuerde los 5 puntos de vestimenta. Nuestros alumnos tienen receso fuera casi todos los
días de invierno. Es importante que sean vestidos para la nieve. Para poder jugar en el
equipo de campo o infantil en días nieve, los niños deben tener "5 puntos", que son
pantalones de nieve, botas, guantes/mitones, un abrigo de invierno y un sombrero. El área
de brea proporciona un área de juegos para niños que no están vestidos para la nieve.
Gracias por su ayuda.
La bienvenida a un nuevo año ofrece un gran momento para la reflexión y la acción
de gracias. Una manera de mostrar agradecimiento por el otro en Prairieview es aceptar
nuestra filosofía de los nuevos peces (FISH). La filosofía de FISH se compone de cuatro
ideas principales: Estar Presente el Uno Para el otro, Elegir una Gran Actitud, Buscar
Maneras de Jugar, y Hacerle el Día a Alguien. Nos tomamos el tiempo cada semana
para celebrar el uno al otro con un billete de FISH.
*Hacerle el Dia a Alguien
*Elegir una Gran Actitud
*Buscar Maneras de Jugar
*Estar Presente el Uno Para el Otro
!
Nosotros, como personal quisiéramos
aprovechar esta oportunidad para celebrar
todas las familias en Prairieview por participar en la Filosofía de los peces (FISH), aunque
usted no lo supiera. Gracias por Estar Presente en nuestra comunidad escolar, Buscar
Maneras de Jugar por asistir a todos nuestros eventos adicionales, Eligiendo una Gran
Actitud y trabajo en equipo con nuestro personal de la escuela. Y lo más importante es
Hacernos el Día por enviar sus hijos a Prairieview y que nos permita hacer una diferencia
en sus vidas.
Si le gustaría participar en nuestra Filosofía de edificio y reconocer a uno de
nuestros maestros o empleados de Prairieview, le invitamos a llenar un boleto de “FISH”
disponible en la oficina. ¡Juntos seguiremos haciendo de Prairieview un gran lugar para
nuestros niños!
Sinceramente,
El Equipo de Prairieview
