District ePost!
In an effort to be both timely and environmentally friendly, the Olathe School District has a new tool to distribute information to families:
ePost!
The district receives over 300 requests from outside groups who want to distribute flyers to our students. (Examples are sports clinics and fine arts camps.)
Instead of paper flyers, parents will now recieve these notices via computer, email, or smartphone. Click here to learn more.
Welcome!
Welcome to Prairie Trail Middle School. Pride, Respect and Teamwork guide us each day in the classroom, in our interactions with others, on the athletic field and in our performances. Students, staff and parents work together to strive for excellence in all that we do. We know the 2012-2013 school year will be filled with new and exciting opportunities.
