Throughout November, PRA will share what members of our community are thankful for. Today we visited with Brandi Partin, our new K8 dean, who is joined in the photo by her pets, Olive and Dobbi.
"I am very thankful for a family that supports me and encourages me no matter what. I am very blessed and thankful to be part of an amazing team at PRA and grateful I get to hang out with such wonderful and loving students every single day!"
Join us during this National Gratitude Month in reflecting on the things you're thankful for. We would love to read them; just share in the comments.

PRA 5th graders dressed as idioms for Core Knowledge Day. Their creativity in representing these phrases was inspiring! Can you guess the idiom they are representing?
#PRAElementary #CoreKnowledge #PRACoreKnowledgeDay
PRA elementary students celebrated Core Knowledge Day today. Each grade dressed in coordination with something they've been learning.
Kindergartners were farmers and farm animals. First graders represented fables and fairy tales. Second grade explored Ancient China. Third graders dressed as Roman citizens and ran from the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. And fourth graders represented medieval times, dressing as knights, royalty and tradesmen.
It was fun-filled day of hands-on learning! #PRAElementary #PRACoreKnowledge #CoreKnowledgeDay
On Friday, October 27th, PRA hosted its annual Trick or Treat Street! Thank you to everyone who helped decorate the school, and to the amazing volunteers who made the rest possible. We had a great time seeing everyone dressed up and having fun!
