Principal's Message

FROM THE DESK OF MR. NIEVERA, PRINCIPAL

I’m excited for the 2026-2027 school year and to start my first year as Principal at Prairie. I am now entering my 21st year in education with prior experiences in the classroom, as Dean of Students, and Assistant Principal.  Having been a student in District 126 at Lane School and Prairie, I have a great sense of pride in our community and school district.  I am looking forward to becoming a part of such a great Prairie staff that focuses on the growth of students academically, socially and emotionally.   I am very proud to serve and support the students, staff and families of Prairie Junior High as we continue learning, collaborating, and pursuing excellence.

 

Go Hawks!
