Big Sky Documentary Film Festival and Filmmakers in the Schools at Frenchtown High School!
Each year, during the week of the Big Sky Documentary Film Festival in Missoula, the Filmmakers in the Schools program coordinates with local school districts to bring age-appropriate and classroom-relevant documentary selections and in-person Q+As with filmmakers to students, providing them the space to ask questions and make local connections to global stories. Throughout the day on Friday, February 25th, Frenchtown High School teachers had the opportunity to bring classes to the auditorium to view a diverse selection of films, stories, and perspectives and to engage in dialogue over content and the filmmaking process with filmmakers.
The filmmakers absolutely LOVED the Q+A and were so impressed by the questions and dialogue that came from our students! Everyone was respectful and attentive, eager to learn from one another. It was an awesome experience for everyone! Thank you to Ms. Shelkey, Ms. Gentry, and Ms. Matter for organizing this great event for FTSD students!
In anticipation of the truck convoy demonstration today:
Bus 5 will drop off students at the town pump parking lot near Charlie’s Produce at the northeast corner. Since this is in a parking lot and the potential for lots of people and confusion, please personally come to the bus to collect your child. We will let students off the bus once you approach the bus.
Thank you everyone for your patience as we work around all the terrible ice on some of our bus routes. I know this hasn’t been easy on everyone. While the ice is improving, I expect we’ll have impacts for a couple more days. With this in mind, I wanted to give all families an update on what to expect with their bus schedule this afternoon.
All buses will run their regular routes and times with exception of Bus 1 and 14 (6 Mile / 9 Mile Routes). A section of 9 Mile Road from the historic ranger station to the West 9 mile bridge is in poor condition and not safe for bus travel.
This afternoon, bus 1, will run its route and turn around at the historic ranger station. It will then continue down West 9 mile Road completing the rest of its stops.
Bus 14 will travel its normal route with exception of the bad stretch of 9 mile road. Families west of the 9 Mile Bridge can expect a 10 minute delay in the afternoon as the bus detours around the bad section of road.
Thank you again for your patience while we work to get everyone home safely! Hopefully warmer weather is around the corner!
If you have any questions, please contact the school or the transportation department. Thank you!

Frenchtown Middle School was well represented at the state FLL Lego Robotics competition held February 26th in Bozeman. Both the 6th grade team, the Shark Gangstaz, and the 8th grade team, the Lightning Commando Squad, advanced from the qualifier meet held February 5th. At the state competition, the Shark Gangstaz had strong robot runs and a great presentation showcasing their innovative project, a secure rural package locker that would increase safety for package delivery drivers, as well as protecting packages from theft. The 8th graders also had strong robot runs and impressed the judges with their innovative project, reusable mailing pouches made from recycled jeans and dog food bags that could reduce package waste by up to 50 percent. Their robot runs, innovative project, along with their demonstration of the FLL core values, earned them the runner-up Champion's Award. This means that they took 2nd place overall out of 52 teams across the state!
6th grade team members are Ean Johnson, Kyla Languanet, Tripp Larson, Zen Peters, Lily Tucker, and Tsimmeej Yang. 8th grade team members are Alyssa Bilbrey, Aleah Knight, Ellie Languanet, Tru Peters, Cooper Stark, and Emma Schwartz. The teams were coached by Dalene Normand.
