It’s Throwback Thursday – Where are they now? This 2012 Frenchtown graduate and Montana Lead Conference essay winner, Ana Torres, has been working in marketing! So, Ana, what are some of your highlights you have experienced after graduating from FTSD? She has been blessed to have had three kids! Ana is going back to school this January for accounting and has picked up playing rugby again. Be careful Ana! Ana fondly recalls the friendships she cultivated while attending FTSD. She does have some advice to current FTSD students…she says to not take the things that happen in high school so serious, it is just high school and you have an entire life ahead of you. Sound advice from Ms. Torres who had the honor of being asked to be a speaker at the Montana Lead Conference a few years after winning her award. Thanks for participating Ana!

Dear Parents/Guardians,
As we move forward after the Thanksgiving break the Parent pickup loop will look a little different. We are asking that all parents pull forward in the loop to allow for both loops to fill. This will help us to get kids into cars effectively and efficiently. At the end of the day, please come make your way to the zone listed on the diagram below to pick-up your student. If you need to have a conversation with a teacher in the loop, there is parking in the lot prior to entering the loop where you can walk up and talk as well as limited parking in the middle of the loop where you can park and walk to the sidewalk. Either Mr. Devins/ Mrs. Knight/ Ms. Vinton will be standing near the Elementary School and as Elementary teachers see cars approaching that they recognize in the Elementary loop, they will start their kid walking back towards Mr. Devins to meet the parent/guardians vehicles. If you do not see your child outside when you are in the loop, please pull all the way forward past the Intermediate zone. Also, please do not drive on the wrong side of the road to get to the loop, please be patient at the end of the day. Finally, please leave space for the small bus to pull of the loop. If we can all follow these steps, it will make for an easier pickup at the end of the day. Thanks in advance for your cooperation during this change.
Thanks,
Riley Devins
Frenchtown Intermediate Principal


Here We Go! The 6th grade tradition of weaving baskets the day before school is out for Thanksgiving break. Have a great Thanksgiving!





King Ranch Golf Course has partnered with Frenchtown School District to provide groomed Cross-County Ski Trails starting December 2, 2022. All rentals are free to the community at the golf course. There is a small cost for trail up keep and liability insurance that is acquired by King Ranch ($5.00). If you have your own skis we ask that you bring them and allow for our rentals to be used by others that do not have their own equipment. The golf course is open Tuesday through Sundays from 11:00am until dark for the community to ski!

FHS Key club food drive was a huge success. Thank you Frenchtown! 39 families will be receiving food, a turkey and a bag of potatoes for Thanksgiving!

Our Frenchtown community lost a beloved teacher, mentor, friend, and daughter today. Justine Luebke, was one of the best people you could have known. Her passing leaves an emptiness in our school hallways and community that won't soon disappear. She has left a handprint on all of our hearts.
If you feel like your child needs support please reach out to your child’s teacher, we have systems in place to help.
