Grand Prairie Elementary

Last Month we recognized our first set of students that were nominated for Student of the Month for displaying the character traits of Respect, Responsibility and Caring. Great Job GP Tigers!

🚧🐯 Stripes the Tiger came ready to play at Grand Prairie… only to find the playground under construction! 😱 While it's a bummer now, TWO new playgrounds are coming soon! Stripes says: "Hang tight—the fun will be worth the wait!" 🎠💪 #GrandPrairie #ComingFall2025 #FSD157C

Reminded of how generous our GP students and community can be when we reflect back to the Stack the Pantry service project. "It's a true testament to the thought that small kiddos can make a BIG difference in our community."

GP students were recognized for their SUPER character traits of Perseverance and Responsibility. Way to go! #GPHeroes #fsd157c

We have many GP Superheroes in training who have been busy earning their super student status the last couple of months! Students were recognized for the character traits of Caring and having a Positive Attitude. #GPHeroes #fsd157c

Look at these GP Superheroes! These students were recognized as November students of the month for the character trait respect. #GPHeroes #fsd157c

Our GP October "SuperHeroes in Training" (Student of the Month) were announced at the beginning of this month for the character trait trustworthiness. #fsd157c #GPHeroes

One of favorite days of the year is when we get the opportunity to honor our Veterans. GP is thankful for your service to our country! A big thank you to @TurnboughMusic for helping our 2nd graders put on a wonderful performance. #GPHeroes#fsd157c #HappyVeteransDay
