Hi, my name is Ericka Arenz, and I am the 4th Grade teacher at Prairie View. This is my third year teaching at PV and my 6th year teaching overall. I was born and raised here in De Soto and I love that I get to come back to this elementary school and teach the kids in this community.

 My husband, Jake, and I live in the area with our three children Henry, Benny, and Annie. I love being outside, gardening, reading, baking, and spending as much time as I can with my family.
