On Monday, November 15, 2021 the Prairie Farm School Board approved an updated plan for 2021-2022 school year in regard to COVID practices.
The updated document is linked below. 
Prairie Farm Plan for Fall 2021

The CDC and Wisconsin Department of Public Health have shared new recommendations outlining the length of quarantine for people who are in close contact with a positive COVID-19 case. The flow chart linked below outlines the new guidelines. 

The two boxes at the right of the flow chart show the modifications made for close contacts both in the home and with individuals outside of the home.

When the school is informed of close contacts outside the school building families will be provided with a form letter which will include the length of quarantine and return date back to school. 

Thanks for your continued support and cooperation.

Thank you for your patience as we continue to navigate these uncertain times. In order to maintain clear communication for our families and community members we are including our most current information for your reference.

Update for Prairie Farm Students and Families

Thanks students, staff and community members for doing such a great job with wearing masks while on school property. The Governor’s new order extended the state-wide mask mandate through November 21st. The Prairie Farm School District will continue to follow the Governor’s mask mandate.

Masks will continue to be required any time students, staff or community members enter the school building or outside on district property when not able to maintain social distancing of 6 ft or more. 

Thank you for your continued cooperation!

For fall athletic activities each participant will be allowed to have a limited number of tickets for family members. No other spectators will be allowed as these will be closed events. Only those with a ticket will be allowed to enter the game. For indoor events, masks will be required. There will not be any concessions served at this time.

The posters linked below outline expectations for those who are allowed to attend fall athletic events.

The Prairie Farm School District values our student’s education and safety above all else. The information included in the document below outlines the plan for providing learning opportunities to our students during the state mandated school closure.

March 17th, 2020 8:30 AM

Updated Information for the Public
The Public Health Department recommends for people with questions regarding COVID-19 to call 211 for the most up to date information and resources. 

Fitness Center Closure
In light of the mandated school closure the Prairie Farm Fitness Center will be closed starting Wednesday, March 18th at 5:00pm. At this time the Fitness Center will be reopened Monday, April 6th; however, this situation is constantly evolving and the closure may need to be extended based on guidance from the Department of Public Health.

Food Service Availability during the closure
With the upcoming school closure the state is encouraging schools to provide meals for our students. Our district will be providing both breakfast and lunch each day for families who would like to receive this service. The meals are free for anyone in the household who is 18 years of age or younger. The meals will be delivered to your doorstep at about 10 a.m. each day starting on Monday March 23rd. Each package will include the lunch for that day and a breakfast for the next morning. The meals will need to be kept cold so please look for them and maybe place a cooler outside for the staff to place the meals in. 

If you're interested in this program, please contact one of the school offices (715-455-1861) no later than 3:30 p.m. on Wednesday of this week and be ready to give the following information.

1. How many meals are you requesting (for people 18 years of age and younger)?
2. If your student does not ride a bus, will a bus or van be able to turn around in your driveway?

Finally, please remember to contact us if you would decide that you no longer need this service.
