High School Track Parents – Schedule Change
Due to the number of activities scheduled next week, we will be making an adjustment to our track schedule.
The team will not attend the Pierre Legion Relays on Friday, April 24th. Instead, we will compete at the Ipswich Tigers Relays on Saturday, April 25th.
Making this change allows our students to spend more time in school during the week. We believe this adjustment is in our students' best academic interest.

Dr. Jalen Lamb and Dr. Jenna Wickersham, along with other medical professionals, will be providing free (no-cost) sports physicals for student-athletes entering grades 6–12 at Sully Buttes High School. This opportunity is made possible through a partnership with the Rural Family Medicine Residency and is designed to help ensure all student-athletes have the required health checks completed before participating in sports.
The physicals are scheduled for May 6. We ask that each student-athlete pick up a Physical/Pre-Participation Packet from the school office or print the packet at home by visiting: https://www.abo.k12.sd.us/page/forms
Please return the completed packet to the school within the next few weeks. Paperwork can be turned in at the High School office at any time, and we will collect and have it ready for the day of the student’s physical.
To help the process run smoothly, we would like all paperwork submitted the week before the physicals. We would like to remind parents to please complete the SDHSAA HEALTH HISTORY FORM that is included in the packet. This is an often-missed piece of paperwork that the doctors need completed.
Having the paperwork completed and submitted ahead of time will help us move through the physicals more efficiently on Wednesday, May 6, and allow our physicians and medical students to focus more on student care rather than paperwork.
