The Class of 1961 was the first graduating class from Platteview High School, and we plan to celebrate during our upcoming homecoming week of September 20, 2021. More details to come! Be sure and check in here regularly for updates!

In Loving Memory

The Alumni & Friends Society continues to live on thanks to its generous graduates and friends who remember the school upon their passing.

Ed Smith, a Platteview High School Alumni and long supporter of the Springfield Platteview Community School District passed away on June 10, 2021. He and his wife, Cheryl Smith graduated from Platteview High School in 1968. His three children, Shane Smith, Kari Johnson, and Jenny Kreifels also graduated from Platteview. Six of his grandchildren have, or will, graduate from Platteview High School: Ben Kreifels (2020), Halle Johnson (2020), Braden Johnson (2020), Kylee Smith (2020), Julia Kreifels (2022), and Madison Smith (2022). To say he was a proud supporter of our district would be an understatement. For the past 30 plus years, you could find him and Cheryl at countless games and activities. Many in the community, not just his family will feel this loss. We felt it was important to leave a legacy of support for Platteview, so the family decided donating part of his memorial to Platteview Alumni and Friends would be a perfect tribute. Once a Trojan, always a trojan! Go Big Red!
