We had a "Good News Call" going out to Isabell Huizenga. Isabell was nominated for the good new call by several of her peers. She was nominated for "always being in a positive mood, always having a smile on her face, always being willing to assist others, and for showing patience". Isabell is a kind and compassionate kiddo who thinks about others around her and makes the day better for her classmates. Thank you, Isabell, for modeling Kindness and Respect to others.

Westley Hunhoff, Caylee Foxley, and Breyden Wollman received the "Good News Call" on Friday from our substitute teacher, Lonnie Tusch. Mr. T noted that Westley, Caylee, and Breyden were a great help to him in the classroom this week. He stated that they were like "assistant teachers" and let him know whenever he did something incorrectly. Ha! He greatly appreciated the little helpers! Thank you for displaying the Panther Way expectation of Responsiblity, Westley, Caylee, and Breyden!

To top it off, she received the "Good News Call" on her Birthday! Thank you, Ainsley, for modeling the Panther Way expectation of Kindness.
Trystan Mushitz was nominated for the “Good News Call” by his teacher, Mrs. Neuman. Mrs. Neuman stated that Trystan showed responsibility and kindness in the classroom yesterday by following directions while cleaning up and putting away the classroom listening center chairs without being told. He saw what needed to be done and how he could help his teacher; and he did what needed to be done. Thank you, Trystan, for modeling The Panther Way!
Nash Hoffman and Brody Timmerman were nominated for the Good News Call by 5th grade teacher Mrs. Patzlaff. Mrs. Patzlaff suggested that while the other students were at band contest, they could vacuum the fifth-grade classrooms. They happily got the vacuum and went to work. They didn't just vacuum around the desks and chairs - they moved everything to be sure that they did a thorough job. Now our rooms look spiffy! Thanks Nash and Brody for being respectful and responsible students. We appreciate your help in keeping our school looking awesome.
The Platte-Geddes School District would like to give a shout out to our extremely hardworking and dedicated principals, Mrs. Jennifer Knecht and Mr. Calvin Hunhoff on #SchoolPrincipalsDay2023!
