8th Graders participated in an interdisciplinary project. Students learned about the history of water wheels, hydroelectric power in Montana, how to harness the power of water and different types of water wheels. Then, they designed, constructed and tested their own water wheel using basic supplies and rice as a water substitute.

7th Grade Science -- observations and data collection continue to happen. This time with Julia Croker from the Clark Fork Collation. Students learned about the history of the Clark Fork River and watershed clean-up along with surveying macro invertebrates.

The Superhero In You theme at the K-5 launched last week in our Kickoff Assembly. This year we are challenging our school community to be the Superhero. What does that mean? It means to be the kind human, the helpful human, the human who stands up against mean and against hurt. That is really what it means to be a Superhero. Frenchtown is full of Superheroes!

Frenchtown High School Homecoming Event Details: Event: Frenchtown High School Homecoming Date: Friday, September 20 Time: 7:00 PM Location: Frenchtown High School Safety and Supervision Guidelines: To ensure a smooth and enjoyable Homecoming event, the school emphasizes the need for close supervision and attention to safety protocols. These guidelines are critical for maintaining a safe environment for all attendees and K-8 students: Parent Supervision: Parents are encouraged to actively monitor their children throughout the event to prevent any disruptions or unsafe behavior. Parental involvement will play a key role in making the night successful for everyone. Restricted Items: Students are not permitted to bring bikes or skateboards to the event. These items could pose a safety risk or create distractions during the Homecoming festivities. Use of School Grounds: No football should be played in the three designated green spaces. The basketball courts are off-limits during the game. This ensures that the focus remains on the event, and it minimizes distractions or potential accidents.

We would like to take the time to honor the work and sacrifices made by the first responders who were on the scene on 9/11/2001. These everyday heroes — firefighters, police officers, paramedics, and search and rescue teams — play important roles in our community. Their efforts are often taken for granted; however, we are grateful for their dedication to protecting and serving. We shall never forget.
