Students of the month for January at Prairie High
School are Chelsea Geis and Silas Whitley. For those who are not familiar
with Chelsea she is a very different student from years past. She works
very hard and takes pride in her studies. I have used Chelsea this year
as a peer tutor and she is eager and happy to help others. She has consistently
been keeping a 3.0 and above. I would just like to say I think we should
honor some students like Chelsea that may not be in extra-curricular activities
but have come along way in personal growth and academics. Silas Whitley
has an incredible work ethic in and out of the classroom and demonstrates
excellent citizenship. He is a fine trumpet player, is involved with
the knowledge bowl team, plays basketball and likes to build things in
shop class. Silas is also involved in the local Idaho Horizons community
leadership program, and works to make our school and community a great
place in which to work and live. Photo by Brock Heath.

Pack 638 would like to wish you all a Happy New Year.
Thank you for all your support and encouragement this past year. The month
of December’s Theme was Holiday lights. We had two weeks for a project
because of Christmas break. During the first week I helped the boys
make English crackers. They filled 4” tubes with candy and wrapped
them up and put a Christmas wish on them. These originated over in
England as a party favor that actually when the ends were pulled they would
make a popping noise. The following week we walked to a few businesses
and wished them a Merry Christmas and gave them an English Cracker.
Our Theme was Holiday lights, but the gift giving is of God’s light.
The boy’s faces were so happy to be able to give this gift, and wish everyone
a Merry Christmas.
