Community service is an important way of developing a child’s understanding of empathy and compassion for others. By giving to those in need, students learn how to put the needs of others above their own and also experience the joy associated with the process. At Prairie Creek Elementary, community service projects are held throughout the year. These projects focus not only locally but also globally so that students learn more about the many needs that exist. Please check back here in the fall for a full schedule of community service events.
