Last week, the Career Fair returned to Hornet Country for the second year. We had more than 25 tables with special guests featuring military, apprenticeships, trade programs, and so much more. Students participated in mock interviews with local business individuals, had their resumes critiqued by working professionals, heard a special presentation on requesting letters of recommendation, and were able to interact on so many levels at the individual booths. Thank you to all who helped make this day possible!!
The March Regular Board Meeting will be held Tuesday, March 18, 2025. See the link for the agenda.

It’s that time of year when our 4th thru 6th grade reading teams competed locally in the Battle of the Books. Each team read 12 books over 5 months. The teams battled it out on Thursday, March 6th to showcase their knowledge. The 4th-grade teams were - team YaYaBubba: Jasper Paddock, Taya Hamm, and Jon Gilman and team Booknicula: Caden Dreidlein, Lauren Knapp, and Finlee Brandt. After battling for two rounds, the teams were tied.
However, team Booknicula eked out a win in the run-off. Team Booknicula will compete at the State level on March 12th. They will be up against teams from all over Montana.
There was only one 5th/6th grade team consisting of Eleanor Frazer, Chloe Gore, Tig Kalstrom, and Emily Peeler. This team automatically advanced to State. The state competition is March 12th.
Reminder this adult education class begins tomorrow. Let Abbie know if you can make it.
