Spring is Here!
We hope you all had a chance to relax and rejuvenate over Spring Break. No matter what the weather forecaster may say, it's spring and we have a busy couple of months before the end of the school year. Please read below for April's events.
A Hearty Thank You to All Who Helped Provide a Delicious Conference Dinner!
Once again, staff at Pioneer Ridge were blown away by the generosity and cooking talents of all who donated something for the conference meal last month. It is truly appreciated by our staff! If you left a crock-pot or other serving container, please stop by the office to pick it up, or let us know if you would like us to send it home with your child.
Please continue to visit our
website to keep up with news and events at Pioneer Ridge for the school year. To get a glimpse into personalized learning at PRMS, see the

Set up Your Campus Portal Account Today
As your child progresses to secondary school, it becomes very important that the district have at least one email address on file per household, as the majority of our teacher, school and district communications are sent using this method.
Families can also change their settings in Infinite Campus to begin receiving text messages. Click here for instructions.
It is also recommended that each parent/guardian have a Campus Portal account, allowing you access to your child's schedule, other student information and to update your contact information. To set up an account, please contact the main office at [email protected] or call 952-556-7800.

Family Breaks
Family breaks are times when students and families can count on no new assignments being due after a school break. The next family break will be May 26th -28th for Memorial Day. Our hope is that by clearly setting aside these times, families can make plans accordingly and students can enjoy time away from the stressors of schoolwork.
