As part of the district’s ongoing school improvement efforts, we have adopted new schoolwide expectations to guide our students’ learning and behavior: Engage, Empower, and Excel.

These expectations create a common language across all schools and grade levels, helping every student understand what success looks like both in and out of the classroom.

Elementary students drew pictures of what they have been engaged in this fall. Here are a few of those pictures that are decorating our hallways. Watch for more in upcoming Knight Reader editions and on our Dakota Prairie Knights Facebook page.

ENGAGE: We listen. We ask questions. We participate in activities.
