Prairie Knolls Middle School Activities

S.T.A.R. (Students That Accept Responsibility)

We are a Student Character program at Prairie Knolls. We meet after school until 4:15 PM. We build character throughout the school using posters, activities, contests, etc. The S.T.A.R. Club leads and participates in a variety of community services projects such as our food pantry!

Student Council

Prairie Knolls Student Council is a peer-elected group made up of a President, Vice-President, Secretary, and Treasurer at both the 6th and 7th Grade level. In addition to the officer positions, there are three (3) students elected by their peers from each team. The PKMS Student Council sponsors a variety of activities including school dances and Veterans Day. The Student Council often raises money to help out charities and the students and staff at PKMS. This group of individuals works in the interest of the student body to make PKMS a great place to be.

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

The Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion club is open to all Prairie Knolls students who want to make PKMS a welcoming place to students of all backgrounds. The mission of the DEI club is to create a comfortable, inclusive, and safe space for students to learn about and appreciate people from different backgrounds. Through various discussions, activities, and events, members of the DEI club aim to develop a true sense of belonging.
