2022-23 Enrollment Road Map

enrollment ENROLL TODAY!

Here are the steps to enroll your child(ren) at USD 382:

1. FREE/REDUCED MEALS AND FEES (optional but recommended) school lunch

The waiver from Congress for free lunches has expired and students will be charged for each meal they take beginning in August. We encourage all families to consider, review, and complete the NSLP application. Eligibility determination will be made according to the established guidelines, and if your family qualifies, your student(s) will receive free or reduced breakfasts and lunches. A few additional reasons for this consideration include:

Textbook, Enrollment, and Technology fees are waived for families who qualify--the NSLP determines qualification and is based on income and family size. The application is completely confidential and will only take a few minutes. Please consider applying.
If families do not complete the application, State funding for our school district may be reduced.

7-21-22 Facilities Update

Click for video message

Greenback Parents,

This is an update for all parents and patrons. I hope this message finds you able to enjoy summer activities with friends and family.

We appreciate receiving important feedback on our facilities survey conducted in early May. While the survey results did indicate a slight majority in favor of the recommended plan, we feel it is best to slow down and get more input. To this end, we will select an architect to do more detailed planning and include some building tours and input sessions over the course of the 2022-23 school year. Being in a volatile construction market presents another challenge with planning a significant project at this time. We do want to take advantage of some of our ESSER (federal pandemic relief dollars) funding where appropriate for the recommended project in order to be good stewards of our resources. Ultimately, we want any project to make our school better positioned to serve our kids and our community for the long term.

Our facilities planning feeds into our overall long-term strategic planning. We held community input sessions in May that brought together district staff with parents and patrons. Our board members reviewed that input and are prioritizing goals. We will review our strategic plan with our building site councils and, of course, adapt to changing needs over time. Our building site councils meet on the second Monday of September, October, November, January, February, and April at 5:45 pm. If you have an interest in participating, please contact the appropriate building principal in August.

Respectfully,

Tony Helfrich

Superintendent

Greenback Hall of Fame Class of 2022

It is my privilege to announce the 2022 Greenback Hall of Fame Class. The 2022 inductees are Carter Barker, Ray Immell, Tobin Melroy, and Lieutenant Colonel John R. Schwartz. Congratulations to each inductee and their family! The Induction Ceremony will be on Friday, October 7, 2022 at 5:00 pm in the Vernon Filley Art Museum. Ticket information for the event will be announced later this summer. Inductees will also be introduced at the Homecoming Assembly at 1:30 pm in the PHS gym. Each inductees' picture will be permanently displayed in the Greenback Hall of Fame Display located in the Pratt High School Commons.

The Greenback Hall of Fame was established as a way to honor and recognize the successes and accomplishments of Pratt High School alumni. These inductees will join the other HOF individuals, alumni and contributors who have made a significant contribution to the Greenback traditions of grit, team, respect, passion, and valor. The Greenback Hall of Fame Display and HOF Induction Ceremony are both funded through donations and at no cost to the USD 382 taxpayers.

Here is a brief introduction to the 2022 Greenback Hall of Fame Class:

Carter Barker (posthumously)

Carter graduated from PHS in 1950. He was a lifetime Greenback Booster Club member and an avid Greenback fan missing only one home football game in 74 years. He was a Charter Board Member of the Pratt County Achievement Place and the Pratt Teen Center. He served on the Pratt County Fair Board and Pratt Community College Beaver Booster Board. In addition, he taught Senior High School Sunday School at the United Methodist Church for over 40 years. Carter's legacy touched many Greenback lives for over 70 years.

Tobin Melroy

Tobin is currently a flight shuttle engineer for NASA. In his role, he answers directly to the Flight Director. During real time Shuttle missions, he is responsible for managing and leading the entire flight planning team of 24 people to implement flight crew activities and procedures in real-time. After graduation from PHS in 1995, Tobin obtained an Aerospace Engineering Degree from Kansas University. His achievements include many honors and awards directly related to him personally achieving excellence as part of the NASA team.

Lieutenant Colonel John R. Schwartz

Lieutenant Colonel Schwartz is currently the Commander of the 89th Operations Support Squadron at Joint Base Andrew outside Washington D.C. He oversees a 120 member team that advances national interests by delivering diplomacy around the world. He is currently a pilot on the C-32A, a VIP aircraft, flying worldwide missions for the Vice President and the First Lady of the United States. John graduated from PHS in 2000 as the Valedictorian and Male Senior Athlete. He attended the Air Force Academy, where he played football and majored in Engineering Mechanics.

Raymond Immell (posthumously)

Ray was the president of Denmar Technical Services. Throughout his career, Ray used his extremely high intelligence to invent and oversee quality control of classified national defense projects. Ray was a recognized expert at stealth technology and developed systems to ensure that stealth aircraft were functioning as designed. The Secretary of the Air Force praised his work and expertise and colleagues called Ray a "National Hero with a rare combination of integrity, competence and leadership". Ray graduated from PHS in 1967 and received Bachelor and Master's degrees in Electrical Engineering from Arizona State University.

Welcome to USD 382

On behalf of our teachers, staff, and school board I welcome you to our district webpage. We are proud of the important work we do with kids to set them up for success and personal well-being this day, this year, and in their future.

We are small-town schools where strong relationships are an integral part of what we do—our principals know every student. Our high school students pair with elementary students (Greenback Match), providing positive leadership and building connections within our student family. Elementary and middle school students hold daily “family” meetings to foster our sense of teamwork and togetherness. Developing our students’ social-emotional strengths is an important goal because we recognize its connection to personal well-being and success both now and in the future.

Because of our size, we are still able to provide a wide variety of opportunities for our students. We have first-class arts programs (band, vocal, theater, debate, forensics, and art), a model elementary MTSS program, an enrichment program for all students, multiple career pathways with instructors in the specialties, and internship and apprenticeship programs. With our connection to Pratt Community College, our college-bound students often leave with 15-30 hours or more of college credit.

In athletics and activities, we compete at a high level—4A for most activities (3A in football). This level allows our entire student body to participate and be successful in multiple activities if they are willing to commit and work hard. But, make no mistake, you must compete with grit to be successful at our level. We have Greenback alumni on scholarship at D1 and D2 programs as well as smaller colleges, community colleges, and technical schools—both for athletics and academics. Regardless of the educational path they choose to take when they leave us, we are proud of our Greenback graduates who are positive contributors to our community and others.

We are small schools with big opportunities. We are a Greenback family. If you would like a tour, please feel free to contact our principals or myself.

Tony Helfrich, Superintendent
