Students of the month for January at Prairie High
School are Shelby Duman, left, and Mckenzie Candalot. Shelby is on the
student council as senior class president. She is willing to put
forth the time it takes to get something done. Also, every time I
see her in the hallway, she has a smile on her face. She is a pleasure
to have in our school. Mackenzie is a very conscientious student.
She has a fun personality; yet, she always treats others respectfully.

Saturday’s Tea Party for little girls and their moms
was a big hit. The little girls looked so cute in their tea party dresses
and princess tiaras. Idaho County Fair Queen Sarah Baune, 1st Princess
Merannda Chaffee and 2nd Princess Halee Hill took the little girls and
showed them how to do the traditional wave as they paraded through the
crowd. They then got in a group and sang “I’m a Little Teapot.” The girls
then got their picture taken with the royalty. Guests were served
tea and a variety of treats. The little girls were fun to watch as they
were given the royal treatment by our Idaho County Fair Royalty. Click
