ATHLETIC PHYSICAL INFORMATION: The Platte and Geddes Medical Clinics are now scheduling sports physicals for the ‘23-24 school year.
Athletic physicals are now required every year for all students in grades 6-12 who participate in any school sporting activity.
Athletic physicals may be done as part of a complete wellness or as an athletic physical only. If you choose to have the athletic physical only, please be prepared to pay $45.00 at the time of the visit. If you are getting a complete wellness exam, the clinic will bill your insurance.
The Platte and Geddes Medical Clinics will be offering these by appointment throughout the summer. Athletic physicals must be completed before the sport season begins. Parents are asked to accompany their child to the appointment.

A huge shout out and an endless amount of gratitude goes out to the P-G staff, football team, cheer/dance team, and all the volunteers who made today's work of emptying every classroom a swift process.

Best of luck to our 2023 Graduating SENIORS!
The 2023 Graduating Seniors walked through Platte-Geddes Elementary this week. Thank you to our SENIORS for being such fine examples to our elementary students! We wish you well in all your future endeavors!
Our First Graders took a field trip to the Sioux Falls Zoo this week......
Calling All Volunteers:
They say many hands make light work and this endeavor will be no exception. Due to the summer renovations that will take place at both the elementary and high school buildings, every classroom needs to be emptied of all desks, books, etc. Some of our coaches have volunteered their student-athletes to assist in the process, but we are looking for additional volunteers to lend a hand. Ross Ringling has graciously donated a semi and trailer and Midwest Concrete is allowing the district to store all the desks in the former Yellow Rose building. If you are looking for a great cardio workout and lessening the burden for all district employees, come to either the Platte-Geddes Elementary or High School at 9 a.m. on Friday, May 19. Your assistant is great appreciated!
