Attention graduated Seniors and Parents: if you would like your custom diploma cover please stop by the school as they were delivered by Josten's yesterday. Also if your student was a Board of Regents Scholar, we received a second certificate from the state. If you would like those, also, please stop by the school and pick those up. Thank you.
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.
To save time at their appointment, parents may want to print and complete page 10 in the following link: https://www.sdhsaa.com/Forms/ATH-PhysicalExamsENG.pdf
For questions or to schedule an appointment, please call:
Platte Medical Clinic – 605-337-1501
