Student Physicals for 25-26 School Year
Don't forget that you can get your student's athletic physicals before school starts. Physical forms are available in the district office. Please use our forms since the packet also contains the other athletic information we need signed. When completed, you can drop the physicals off at the district office. If closed, there is a drop box in the door. You don't have to wait until school starts!
Attention Parents of 4th–12th Graders (2025–26 School Year):
We have two schedule changes for this week:
1. Summer weights will now begin Tuesday (instead of Monday) due to logistical challenges caused by last week’s flooding. We’ll follow the regular Tuesday group schedule.
2. The track banquet is now scheduled for Wednesday evening at 7:00 PM at Coach Budke’s house for those who can attend.
Thanks for your flexibility—we appreciate your understanding.
—Coach Budke

Attention Football Parents,
On Monday, June 9th, the Chase County High School football team will be attending the Emporia State 8-Man Camp. This is an all-day event where our athletes will have the opportunity to compete and work alongside teams from across the state.
Your son has been emailed a waiver form for the camp — this form must be completed and signed prior to Monday in order to participate.
We will check out pads, helmets, and jerseys on Sunday evening at 7:00 PM at the high school. A team walk-through will follow after gear checkout. Athletes should bring the following on Sunday:
• A signed waiver form
• A check for $45 (camp fee)
If your family needs an additional copy of the waiver, forms are available for pickup at the board office.
Coach Stout and Coach Barrett will share additional information later this week regarding evening practices.
We’re looking forward to a great start to the summer!
Go Bulldogs,
Coach Budke
