Bulldog Booster Gym Signs

Our gym hosts a number of 2' X 3' booster signs. They are quite noticeable on the north wall. These signs are hung at an annual cost of $50 per year. The cost and design of the sign are at the expense of the booster. If you would like to support our student-body and  hang a Booster sign in the gym that represents your business or family, please contact Rocky Mountain Sign Works in Ronan at 406-676-7446.

Your design will be placed on a 2' X 3' white aluminum blank. According to Rocky Mountain Sign Works, the cost will run between $50 to $75 dollars for the sign. Signs take approximately one to two weeks for completion. Once you get your sign, bring it in to Jacki Spidel in the High School Office and she will collect your annual fee and see that your sign is hung up accordingly.

Board Workshop: Direction Setting/Strategic Plan

by Superintendent Robert "Bob" Lewandowski

On Tuesday, June 7, 2011 at 7:00 PM in the District Board Room, the School Board invites the public to review and discuss the proposed Strategic Plan Draft for implementation. This plan represents our mega issues and proposed goals for the district over the next five years based on identified needs and ideology.  This is a DIRECTION SETTING instrument. Your input is very valuable. The Board has been working with the Montana School Boards Association (MTSBA) in developing this draft since the beginning of the year. At this time the Strategic Plan Draft represents board work that has been written and translated by the MTSBA from board workshops.

Please review the Strategic Plan Draft and join us on June 7, 2011 at 7:00 PM in the District Board Room.

Giving Back

Elementary teacher, Lloyd Phillips recently took the 5th grade class on its annual science field trips to local ecology: forest/Mission Dam, wetlands/Nine Pipes, and river/River Honoring. He submitted the photos and the following description of the events.

"We have been attending these trips for many years.  We have been very fortunate to have some of our former Mission students and Bulldog athletes take time out of their busy work schedules to give presentations to our 5th grade students both in and out of the classroom.  The names of the former students "Giving Back" are Stephanie Trahan Gillin and Devlin LaFrombois.  Steph is a CSKT Wildlife Biologist and Devlin is a Wild-land Fire Specialist.  They are great at working with our youth, and our students not only enjoy these presentations very much, but also gain a tremendous knowledge of our local ecologies.  They are very fortunate to live in this beautiful area and everything that goes with it." Lloyd Phillips

 Well done Mr. Phillips and special thanks to all that helped make our students' learning experience a success. Thanks for giving back!
