My name is Ashley Crouse and I am a senior at Prairie. I have been a Prairie Falcon for all 4 years of my high school career, and I previously went to Pleasant Valley Middle School. I am currently on the Prairie JV Dance Competition team, and a second year spokesperson for the SOS program. I have done dance and theater since I was 10, but this is my first and final year being a part of the school’s dance team.

After High school, I plan to go to an in-state college and major in animal science. With that, I will go on to be an animal breeder and caretaker, more so focusing on farm animals and common household pets. I decided to do something with animals professionally after I volunteered for NW Battle Buddies and Man’s Best Friend. I’ve always had a love for animals and hope I can continue working with them always!
