Students of the month for May at Prairie High School are from left, Abbigail Lustig and Lauren Duman, co-outstanding students and Randi Schumacher, honor student. Lauren Duman and Abbigail Lustig were nominated for their hard work preparing the decorations and decorating for the Junior Senior Banquet.  Along with the help of some other students, they spent their after-school hours completing these wonderful decorations.  Because of their time and efforts, the banquet was decorated beautifully and the junior class received many compliments on the decorations, food and entertainment.  Both of these young women are willing to help out whenever asked, and their help, time, and work are greatly appreciated.  Randi’s distinguished academic achievements have earned her a place in National Honor Society (3.7GPA) at Prairie High School.  She has been a very active member of 4-H for ten years and has helped with community projects from cleaning ditches to painting the big G at Greencreek. She has also enjoyed her volunteer work with Health Occupations Students of America, the community blood drive, St. Mary’s Hospital and the Honor Society. Randi also participated in Volleyball (Team Captain), Basketball and Track while in high school. She has also enjoyed being a ski racer for Cottonwood Butte Ski Team for the past seven years. As a busy high school student she has also found time to study and work at various jobs. She is an active member of St. Anthony’s Church. This young lady is an active member of the Prairie student body and is very well respected by the students and staff.
