From Mr. Greer

  • Jason Greer Chambers Prairie Families,

    It is an honor to serve as your principal. As a graduate of North Thurston Public Schools myself, I am truly invested in the success of your children and our community.

    At Chambers Prairie, I am just one part of an experienced staff of professionals who focus on creating a positive learning environment and valuable educational experiences for our students. In addition to our robust reading, math, writing, social studies, and science curriculums, we are fortunate to engage students in our music, physical education, art, and library. Beyond the regular school day, students also have the opportunity to join a variety of school clubs, including leadership, track, board games, and journalism.

    As you walk through the halls and classrooms of our school, you will notice our PAWS expectations posted and practiced throughout. PAWS (Pride and Respect, Achievement, Working Together, and Safety) is a touchstone we use to teach appropriate school behavior to our students. Students who are following the PAWS are recognized with a PAWS ticket, which earns individual prizes. Be sure to ask your students how they are practicing PAWS at school.

    I am here to support you and your students. I value a strong working relationship between our school and our families. If you ever have a concern or question about our school or a compliment about one of our staff members, please call, email me, or stop by. My door is always open.

    Mr. Greer
    Principal
