My daughter thrived at the school and is still nostalgic about the interesting classes and wonderful outdoor experiences she had there. As a parent, I was happy to find that she was very prepared for the academics in high school, and even more appreciative of the self-confidence, self-knowledge, and independence she developed while attending the Prairie School.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
