Prosser School District

Prosser School District would like to thank all the support staff who make our mission of educating children possible. Oftentimes our support personnel are the first to interact with our students – whether they are boarding the bus, getting breakfast, or playing on the playground, our support personnel are always there with a smile to help our students. Your efforts do not go unnoticed. I wanted you to know that I appreciate all that you do and that your role is vital in helping us do all that we can for our students.

The Prosser School District has to add 3 snow make-up days to the school calendar for the year. We will attend school on Friday, May 26 (previously a snow day), Monday, June 12th and Tuesday, June 13th.

Gifted Referrals (Spring Window 2023) The Prosser School District is accepting referrals for our “Gifted Program” until March 31, 2023. This spring referral window is for any student in the Prosser School District that is not already in the program. If you know of a student who may benefit from this program, please fill out the online referral form. The online referral form was emailed to parents today and they are available on the district website under the Families/Parent Resources tab. The forms are also available at your child’s school, the schools and at district offices. Link to spring gifted referral form: https://forms.office.com/r/wCXH1jbVY8

Update: Prosser School District has worked in partnership with the Prosser Police Department and the Benton County Sheriff’s Department to identify what we believe to be the source of an active shooter threat. The student has been removed from campus until Prosser School District and local law enforcement are able to sort through the details. We would like you to know for the remainder of the day Prosser School District will be adhering to heightened security measures. The safety of your child is our highest priority. Please do not hesitate to contact the district if you have any questions regarding this matter or if you believe you have information that could be viewed as a threat.

Attention PSD parents and students: This morning, Friday, February 24, 2023, Prosser Police Department received a report of a threat at Housel Middle School. School officials and Prosser Police Department are working together to investigate this situation. We currently do not know if this has any relationship to the incident yesterday. All Prosser School District Schools will be in a Secure and Teach today until we are certain there is no threat to our students. While schools are in Secure and Teach, parents are not allowed to pick up their children. The district will continue to update everyone on the situation.

This morning the Prosser Police Department received an anonymous tip that a bomb had been placed on the campus of Housel Middle School. Although there were concerns with the credibility of the information, the safety of Prosser students is our highest priority. In responding to this information, a full sweep of the building occurred with a canine trained in identifying incendiary devices. The students and staff were relocated while these precautionary measures occurred. The Prosser School District takes all threats seriously. If you have any questions or concerns about this communication, please feel free to contact the district office at 509-786-3323. Thank you, Matt Ellis

“We have also come to this hallowed spot to remind America of the fierce urgency of Now. This is no time to engage in the luxury of cooling off or to take the tranquilizing drug of gradualism. Now is the time to make real the promises of democracy. Now is the time to rise from the dark and desolate valley of segregation to the sunlit path of racial justice. Now is the time to lift our nation from the quicksands of racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood. Now is the time to make justice a reality for all of God's children.” - Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. In observance of Dr. Martin Luther King jr. Day there will be no school on Monday, January 16, 2023.
