The "Good News Call" this week went out to Gunner Werkmeister. Gunner noticed that Mrs. Pazour needed help with a task that another student did not complete so he happily offered to do the job. Our positive affirmation this week was “I help others” and Gunner did just that! He noticed a job that needed to be done, and even though it was not his job to do, he offered to help and do the job anyway. Thank you, Gunner, for being a Happy Helper to others!

Good evening,
Platte-Geddes School will be closed on Thursday, January 5th. After consulting with the DOT and checking roads, the ice/snow packed highways, impassable gravel roads, and drifting make the conditions far too risky for our students and staff. We are optimistic that conditions will improve enough tomorrow to allow for school on Friday.
Thank You,
Joel Bailey
