Platte-Geddes will be hosting the "Last Chance" Track Meet on Thursday, May 16. This meet was formerly the region meet, but it has changed because the SDHSAA has changed the state qualification requirements. Host schools used to receive reimbursement from the SDHSAA to cover meet expenses. We will be charging admission ($5 for ages 12 and up) to help offset expenses and are looking for a couple volunteers to take tickets from 9:30-12:30. Since it is the last day of school, district employees are not available to take tickets. If you are willing to volunteer your time as a ticket taker, please contact athletic director, Frank Cutler, at 605-207-0066 or via email at frank.cutler@k12.sd.us
Joe Duling aka William Clark, presented a SD History lesson to our 4th graders. Thank you for coming to Platte-Geddes Elementary and for the outstanding portrayal of William Clark.
Jase was nominated for the “Good News Call” by Mrs. Rabenberg and Mrs. Knecht for being an outstanding student helper. Jase is a kind and compassionate classmate who notices when a friend needs a helping hand. Thank you, Jase, for being a good friend to others and a great help to our teachers. Thank you for demonstrating the Panther Way expectation of Kindness.
Thank you to the Platte Police Department and Officer Semmler and Officer Workmeister for the "S is for Safety" Demonstrations. The officers talked to our students about stranger danger, bike safety, internet safety, and many other student safe behaviors. Our kids were an outstanding audience and asked many great questions.
Happy Teacher Appreciation Week to our FABULOUS Teachers, Paraprofessionals, and ALL Support Staff! Thank you to the Elementary Parent Advisory Committee for the wonderful breakfast served on Monday. Thank you to Sarah Timmerman and Brooks for the Tupperware boxes full of treats (and to all who donated to the project). Thank you to First Fidelity Bank for the meat and cheese trays with crackers. We appreciate all of the kind gifts and gestures! And we appreciate our teachers, paraprofessionals, and all support staff who make our school a great place to learn and grow!
