EMERGENCY CLOSING- At this time, due to the water main break in Skokie, we no longer have functional water and bathrooms. We ask all families to please come and pick up their child(ren) as soon as possible. When you arrive at East Prairie, please go to the atrium, where we will have grade-level stations supported by our staff. We will then get your child from class for a safe and orderly dismissal.
