For anyone planning to attend Middle School or High School volleyball camp on the week of August 3 - 7, please make sure that you attend weights and conditioning next week as you need five days of conditioning in order to do anything sports specific! This is a KSHSAA dictated requirement. This is only if you have not been attending weights & conditioning this summer.

Attention all incoming 6th-8th grade boys interested in basketball. Information on the flyer for summer basketball camp!


I am sure all of #GorillaCountry has many questions. Don't forget we hope to answer some of those questions on SUNDAY, July 26th with a FACEBOOK LIVE event starting at 7pm. Hope you can join us, tell a friend! #GorillaPride #ComingBackStrong2020

Hope everyone is gearing up for the start of school. With the KS BOE NOT upholding the Governor's executive order, school will start before Labor Day. We are working with local health officials on safety measures and procedures. We will be meeting today to discuss the date school will start. #BePatientBePositive School is around the corner! #GorillaPride

Those wishing to watch SHS 2020 graduation can view it at 2:00 pm on Saturday at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCeR4FSvw8pqEGilzz2UjLHg.


Prominade for Prom will occur this Friday at 8:30 pm on the stage of the city park. Attendees are to park along the gravel road on the south side of the park. All attendees will be required to wear a mask. The event will be streamed live on our YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCeR4FSvw8pqEGilzz2UjLHg. Students will then move to the HS gymnasium for Prom until 11:30 pm.


Yesterday Gov. Kelly announced the delay of opening schools until after Labor Day. This will come with many questions. We don't have the answers at this point. Please give us time to digest the news and adjust our timelines/plans. Mark your calendars for July 26th for our Facebook Live event starting at 7pm . We miss our Gorilla students and can't wait to have them here. #Patient&PositiveTogether

Juniors & Seniors get ready for a prom like no other! Check your email tomorrow for details about tickets and decoration work times.


Letter coming out tomorrow regarding graduation and prom. Many of you have inquired as to the regulations required in order to hold each of the events. Looking forward to a great weekend and celebrating with our Gorilla family. Senior parents check your email tomorrow for details

While we still have a lot of work to do, the schools in Dickinson County have been working together, along with the Dickinson County Health Department on a plan to re-open the schools within Dickinson County. We are planning on resuming in person operations in August including a plan to have the students in the buildings as scheduled. In person, virtual, and/or blended learning opportunities may be available to students as plans are developed.
We are currently evaluating our processes, procedures, policies and facilities to see what adjustments we need to make to provide a safe environment for our students, teachers, staff and parents. Please understand that we are still waiting on guidelines from the Kansas State Department of Education before we can finalize our plans. This information will not be available until mid-July. Once these guidelines are released, we will have a better understanding of the expectations from the Kansas Board of Education and we will finalize our plans.

Online enrollment is underway at USD 393 for the 2020-21 school year. Please follow the link below to complete the registration. Looking forward to seeing our students! #GorillaPride

Parents please read the letter from Dickinson County Health Officials sent to your email. Per the Dickinson County Health Department request, all individuals entering the facility will be required to wear a mask. Once social distancing of 6 feet can be maintained the mask may be removed. There are more details in the letter pertaining to activities/athletics/summer school/camps/drivers education. These requirements will be in place until further notice.

Middle School girls conditioning will begin next Monday June 29th and will be from 9-10am. This is for any 6th-8th grade girls interested! We will go Monday-Friday the first week only, then Monday-Thursday the weeks after that. Drop off and pickup will be the High School parking lot!

Attention 7th Graders from the 19-20 School Year. Have pictures of yourself from the school year? If so, please email them to the yearbook staff at yearbook@usd393.net. We are in need of pictures of you and they may get featured in the yearbook.

All prospective HS cheerleaders need to check their email and respond to Coach Howard ASAP.

Parents, Grandparents, Guardians...we want your feedback! The information you provide our district will guide us in developing a successful roadmap for reopening our schools in August 2020. The form can be accessed below. #GorillaReopening
