Time and time again, our alums remind us that the curiosity and confidence they build at Prairie Hill carries them a long way. Case in point: Adah Wisnicki just earned a perfect ACT score and is on her way to Williams College! So proud of you, Adah β€” congratulations! You’re one more example of the wonderful places a Prairie Hill kid can go.

CONGRATULATIONS to our 2026 Adolescent graduates! We are so very proud of you and all you accomplished during your time at Prairie Hill. More than good grades, you have each demonstrated kindness, collaboration and curiosity. The significance of who you are brought not just your parents to your graduation ceremony, but your former classmates, your former teachers and our entire community. We are so proud of you!

As our Head of School, John Gloe, said, β€œYou have created special memories together that you should cherish. You are part of a very special, unique club. Now, go make more memories to cherish and remember, you’re always Prairie Hill people.” πŸŽ“πŸŽ“πŸŽ“πŸŽ“

On this National Little Free Library Day, we’re feeling grateful and excited to have our own Little Free Library at PRAIRIE HILL!

Our little library was donated a few years ago by one of our graduating adolescent classes. These young graduates donated our little free library to say, thank you, for their time at Prairie Hill and to make sure our community continued to enjoy reading. We’re grateful to those graduates for their donation. We’re grateful to their Lead Montessori Guide Jordan and we’re so thankful to Jon for building this fantastic library.

So, to celebrate National Little Free Library Day, read a book or donate to a little free library. πŸ“šπŸ“šπŸ“šπŸ“šπŸ“šπŸ“šπŸ“šπŸ“šπŸ“šπŸ“šπŸ“šπŸ“š
