My name is Kaitlynn Brown. I am the daughter of John and Christina Brown. In high school I participated in many activities. Some of these activities include; Band, Basketball, Volleyball, Cross Country, FFA, Bowling, 4-H, Cheerleading, Trap, and the buddy Program. After high school, I plan to get my degree in Applied Science and become a Radiologist. I want to thank my parents and teachers. You have pushed me, even when I did not always understand why, and you believed in me when I doubted myself. You inspired me to go beyond my limits and to become the best version of me that I can be. I am very appreciative of your patience, support and unwavering encouragement. Everything that I have achieved and accomplished was because you never gave up on me. So thank you for helping me grow into who I am today.

Dear Parents/Guardians,
Because medical costs can be expensive, South Platte Public Schools does provide families the opportunity to purchase student accident insurance on their student through Student Assurance Services, Inc.
This supplemental policy would assist with your out-of-pocket medical expenses (i.e. deductible) should your student sustain an accidental injury while coverage is in effect. Also, if you do not have any insurance on your student, this would be primary for accidental injuries. There is a variety of coverage options and premiums are a one-time payment for the school year.
Please review the short video link below as well as the attached forms regarding student accident insurance.
