Thank you to all of our staff and volunteers who helped make this morning another special Ellis Island Day event!! 🥰

PRA's 2nd grade students experienced learning in action as they visited our own little Ellis Island on campus. After a visit to the Statue of Liberty, students were processed through various stations, just as immigrants in the early 1900s would have done #PRAMiners #K12onPurpose

Prospect Ridge Academy was proud to again serve as a host for a Naturalization Ceremony this morning!

For the third straight year, PRA was a site that welcomed 16 new American citizens from across 13 different countries. Additionally, our own PRA 3rd grade students had the chance to receive a hands-on learning experience, which brought to life the unit on citizenship that they studied this year! #PRAMiners #NaturalizationCeremony #CoreKnoweldge

One page. One pen. Total ink depletion.

What happens when you can’t stop until the pen dies? Our PRA High School Art 3 students found out with their "Drain the Pen" assignment. One semester of layering led to these stunning, high-detail results. Sometimes, more really is more! #PRAFineArts

Hands-on Learning ↔ Community Service

This semester, the PRA High School AP Spanish Class has been learning about sanitation in Spanish Speaking Countries. Part of the AP exam is to learn how to compare and contrast how we do things in our community versus how things are done in Spanish speaking countries.

Students learned all of the vocabulary for sanitation clean up, and spoke in Spanish the entire time, during a class service project to pick up trash along I-25 and the West 144th Ave. exit ramp. ♻🥰 #PRAMiners
