  Achievements

• Prairiland ISD has made great strides in incorporating technology into its classrooms. The district was featured in the December 2006 issue of THE Journal and its long-range plan has the district converting to a completely wireless network, among other options .
• Prairiland ISD has been very active in the Texas Rural Education Association, as two of its superintendents have served as President of TREA . Of the 11 presidents of TREA, Prairiland ISD is the only district to furnish more than one.
• Prairiland ISD recently completed renovation of its football stadium, featuring an astroturf playing surface . Although astroturf fields at the high school level are not uncommon in Texas, where high school football is extremely popular, such a field is unusual for a school the size of Prairiland. In addition, the school gymnasium features an overhead scoreboard, an uncommon feature at high school level facilities and very rare at a small school like Prairiland .
• Prairiland Junior High was recognized by the Texas Business and Education Coalition on its 2007 Honor Roll of outstanding schools, the second consecutive year a Prairiland ISD school was so honored. The feat was even more amazing in that the Junior High was only in its third year of existence .
