Prairie Junior High School is located at 15161 South Gougar Road,
in an unincorporated section of Homer Township. Oak Prairie Junior
High School opened its doors to students for the first time in August
2002. The school then became one of four elementary schools operating
in the Will County School district 92 boundaries. At Oak Prairie,
teachers enthusiastically promote academic excellence, individual
responsibility and appropriate social skills. Our staff prepares
students for a smooth transition to the high school level. These
goals and ideas would not be possible without the professional dedication
of a tireless staff. Oak Prairie Junior High School is proud to have
such a staff. |
