Facility Needs Survey

1 October 2021

Greenback Family,

Our USD 382 district facility committee is assessing needs for our district and community. For background information, we have 5 buildings: 1) The Academic Center for Excellence (ACE)--formerly the high school and currently houses the central office and our preschool; 2) Southwest Elementary--grades K-4; 3) Liberty Middle School--grades 5-8; 4) Pratt High School--grades 9-12; and 5) our transportation facility (Bus Barn). As we develop our long-term facilities plan, we seek input from our parents and community members. Please fill out this survey to help the committee better understand the needs of our community. Thank you.

2021-22 Enrollment Road Map

enrollment ENROLL TODAY!

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

1. HOUSEHOLD ECONOMIC SURVEY (optional but recommended) school lunch

Even though all children will be able to eat FREE during the 2021-22 school year, the Household Economic Survey (HES) generates additional funding for our local educational programs. We encourage all families to consider, review, and complete the HES application. Eligibility determination will be made according to the established guidelines, and if your family qualifies, the district will still receive the funds accordingly. A few additional reasons for this consideration include:

Textbook, Enrollment, and Technology fees are waived for families who qualify--the HES 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.

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.
