Legislature: There are many bills being introduced in the legislature affecting public education. Some are positive and some negative. I would encourage everyone to pay close attention to any of the bills but especially HB 203. It fundamentally changes a school district’s ability to control out of district enrollment while affecting taxpayers/school districts in a negative way. School districts in the Mission Valley will be hit harder than most due to the mobility of students throughout the Mission Valley. If you have questions about the legislature and public education bills please call the office. You can also find information on the Montana School Board Association website.

Tis the Season! Thank you to parents and local citizens for the assistance with finding student’s appropriate winter clothes, helping pay for participation fees, and helping with breakfast/lunch fees. Our families really appreciate it!
Shot Clock: We had a rehearsal for several volunteers to learn about running the shot clock last week. We could still use more help with either running the score clock or the shot clock. Our first home basketball games begin Dec. 17. If you can help us out during JV and Varsity games with running the shot clock, score clock, scorebooks, or ticket taking please contact Lorri O’Neill at [email protected].

SUPER SUBSTITUTES! This week we were hit with lots of staffing issues but because of our employees covering in other areas and our local substitutes, we kept everything running. Thank you to all of our subs in the community for always pitching in, sometimes as the last second: Alyssa Cahoon, Kandy Carey, Melissa Coleman, Crystal Stipe, Kendra Alder, Nichole Cote, Joe Bartlett, and Dana Darlington. I hope I didn’t miss anyone. We could not keep the doors open without you!

Thankful! We are so grateful to community members who have helped out with paying on participation fees and lunch accounts for some of our families this year. We are also thankful to those who have donated warm coats, snow pants, gloves, and hats to our students. There is always a need and it seems like the Viking Family always comes through! Have a Blessed Thanksgiving!

Please talk to your student about the item they signed up for and turn it into Student Council on Monday. Please help their food drive to be a success. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Breakfast and Lunch: Please pay your lunch/breakfast bills. Unfortunately, we have many accounts that are behind. We understand times are difficult for some and we are doing our best to work with families. Paying ahead on the account is a best practice. Paying something on the account each week is great to keep the account active. The school district has obligations to the lunch program that we must follow. We are working on making debit card payments available too. We are not sure when that will become active. If you have questions please call 644-2206 if you have questions.
