South Prairie PTA held their first meeting of the year in the new school located 12 miles south of Minot, Friday evening, October 18th. Room visitation was from eight to nine p.m. The parents were escorted by their children to their class rooms where they were introduced to the room teacher. They were then shown where their child’s desk was and had opportunity to look over some of the work done during the first six weeks period, after which they visited with the teacher.
