Welcome Back To School from the Glasgow SuperintendentBOB CONNORS,

GLASGOW SUPERINTENDENTFOR THE COURIER

Welcome Back! As educators, we understand the above William Temple quote. Quality education takes place, not only at the school building, but also outside the school

walls. To put this into context, a student that attends school every day, is exposed to approximately 1100 hours of instruction. That leaves 7660 hours outside the school walls.

“It takes a village to raise a child.” We have excellent teachers, staff and

administrators and the classroom is an integral piece of the educational puzzle, but so are extra-curricular activities (school based or other-wise), adult/child conversations at meals, during homework, car rides, etc., peer-to-peer conversations, and sleep. Yes, sleep is extremely

important. My challenge to parents/guard-

ians is to get the students to school. Allow us to best utilize the 1100 hours available to us. Together, we can make a difference in our stu-dent’s lives. The student’s best abil-ity, this school year, will be avail-

ability. A website to visit about the affects of absenteeism can be found at www.attendanceworks.org.

Ribbon Cutting – We will have a ribbon cutting ceremony for the new Irle School, August 20th at 1:00. p.m.

Welcome Irle School Students and ParentsRACHEL ERICkSON,

IRLE ELEmENTARy PRINCIPAL FOR THE COURIER

The Staff and I would like to wel-come you to an exciting year at Irle Elementary School! We have worked very hard to prepare for this school year, and we believe that our students will have a rewarding educational experience. We take great pride in our outstanding, research-based cur-riculum and instruction offered to our district’s youngest learners. I am excited about starting the 2015-16 school year!

As demands and complexities of teaching children increase, it be-comes more evident that we all need to work together to insure that our children reach their potential. We believe that all of us – the school and the community – must work together in an extended family environment to insure success for all our students. We believe it is everyone’s responsi-bility to empower children with the creative, intellectual and decision-making skills necessary for them to become academically, socially, physically and emotionally success-ful and responsible. With that end in mind, our school goals are:

1. Improve reading and math

achievement scores.2. Improve student behavior.3. Improve all stakeholder com-

munication. Irle School will continue the

initiative of a multi-tiered system of support (MTSS). The purpose of MTSS is to identify children who need additional help with reading, math or behavior and prevent the development of serious learning or behavioral problems; and to identify those children who, even with extra help, make very limited progress. Success, one child at a time – the effort to meet each child’s needs for growth socially, emotionally and academically – is ongoing and intentional. We use formative and summative assessments to gather data on the academic growth of our students and use that data to develop appropriate classroom and individu-alized instruction. Regular review and revision of the curriculum help us to ensure that we are delivering the best possible learning experience for our students. Our teachers “know” their students, identifying strengths, challenges and passions while striv-ing for a positive school experience and love of learning.

We offer a strong complement of

Specials instruction in the areas of physical education, general music, art, computer/keyboarding, library/media, PLTW and guidance that enhance the regular education ex-perience for our students. We have professional instructors that are dedicated to these additional content areas who work closely with the regu-lar education teachers to provide a meaningful experience that connects the work being done in the classroom by the students and to the students’ lives outside of the school.

Our school is focused upon ev-eryone being safe, caring, respectful and responsible. Irle School has established clear expectations for behavior (being safe, caring, respect-ful and responsible) that are taught, modeled and reinforced across all settings and by all staff. At Irle, we believe effective and safe schools have an orderly, safe and purposeful environment where teaching and learning thrives, and as a staff, all of us will be teaching, modeling and coaching the students on these top-ics every school day. We are looking forward to partnering with you in this venture.

Education is a shared responsibil-ity. It is important for us to keep open

lines of communication between home and school. We must work as a team to guide your child (ren) toward success. This is accomplished by communicating with your child’s teacher, attending school functions and assisting your child in under-standing the importance of education and cooperation. You, as the parent, are a valuable component of your child’s education. Parents are always welcome at Irle Elementary School and are encouraged to become in-volved. We acknowledge the impor-tance of parental involvement in the success of the schools. The presence of volunteers in the classroom allows us to reach more students through in-dividual interactions during learning opportunities.

It is our desire to keep you in-formed of all that is taking place at school. Up-to-date and additional in-formation will be sent to you though student folders and planners. Infor-mation appears on our district web page, on Family Link and through School Reach. Every student will receive a school handbook on Sept. 1, the first day of school. It is also posted on the district website. Please read and review the school handbook. If you have questions or concerns

that arise at any time, please do not hesitate contact the school.

Lastly, new parents are strongly encouraged to stop in beginning Au-gust 24, from 8-4 and register new students. New students need to have original immunization documenta-tion and a certified birth certificate. If your child is entering kindergarten, make sure their immunizations are up-to-date. The Valley County Health Department will assist with questions and immunizations. Parents of all students are encouraged to drop in and add money to their child’s meal account or go online via MealTime.com and/or purchase milk cards.

Irle Elementary School will be hosting Community Open House Events on Aug. 24, from 5-7 p.m., Aug. 25, from 11 a.m. - 1 p.m., and Aug. 26, from 7:30-9:30 a.m.

School Family Open House is on Aug. 31, from 4-6 p.m. Please come join us, and while doing so, take some time to update your child’s contact in-formation, visit his/her classroom and explore the school. I look forward to having a long and rewarding relation-ship with you and your family.

Sincerely,Rachel Erickson,

Irle Elementary Principal

Please come have some cake and look around your new school.

Building Projects – As our build-ing projects come to a close, I would like to take this opportunity to thank everybody for their support and in-put. This has been a two and a half year process that has taken patience and understanding at all levels.

What is left? Paving the parent parking/student drop off area, paving of the bus lanes at Irle, landscaping

the front entrance area of the Middle School, and a few behind the scenes items. We are on budget and will continue to be at or under budget.

What is next? At some point in the future, we will need to discuss our high school parking lot and our outdoor athletic facilities. We will continue to make the necessary up-keep maintenance to allow us to util-ities these facilities into the future. At some point, the track will need a major overhaul, so we can keep hosting state qualifying, district, and divisional meets. I would also like to address our softball field issues

and some concerns with our football field. These are future issues, but I want to always remain open and honest with the Glasgow voters and Scottie Nation as a whole.

Hello Scottie NationBRENNER FLATEN, VP/AD

FOR THE COURIERWelcome to another year at Glas-

gow High School. The staff at GHS is busy gearing up for yet another action-packed year that is sure to be a memorable one.

The 2015-16 school year will be bringing in a few changes with it. For the first time in a decade, the high school will return to a true 9-12th-grade set-ting. This year’s 7th and 8th grade will be teaming up with the 6th

grade to bring us a true “Middle School.” This will have a greater impact on academics, but will also usher in a few changes for our activities as well. Junior high volleyball and basketball will continue with practices at the Middle School this coming year.

While junior high football and wrestling practices will also be mak-ing the move from the high school to the Middle School this year. All 7th- and 8th-grade students will continue to be eligible to participate in athlet-ics. 6th-grade students will still to be eligible to compete in wrestling and will now also have an opportunity in the spring to compete with the junior high track and field team.

These are some important dates for all parents and student-athletes to be aware of:

Thursday, Aug. 13, 7 p.m. at the GHS Auditorium – Manda-tory Parent Meeting. (For parents/guardians of students in grades 6-12 planning to participate in extra-cur-ricular activities during the 2015-16 school year).

Friday, Aug. 14 – First day of Fall practices for high school sports (football, volleyball, cross

country). practice schedules to be announced.

Monday, Aug. 24 – First day of Fall practices for junior high sports (football, volleyball, cross country). Practice schedules to be announced.

Need before the first day of practice:

• Current Ath-letic Physical com-pleted by a licensed physician and turned into the GHS office and/or coach ing staff.

• Concuss ion Baseline Testing Completed with Mr. Chuck Barstad. (Test is good for TWO (2)

years upon completion. If you took it during the 2014-15 school year, you are still current)

• Consent to Participate form completed

• Training Rules form com-pleted

• Glasgow High School and FMDH Drug Testing forms com-pleted (these are NOT required for 6th-8th-grade student athletes)

Need by the end of the first week of practice:

• Activity Ticket purchased ($30 for the school year)

• Sport Participation Fee paid ($40 per sport for high school, $15 per sport for junior high).

I look forward to the ton of excitement this fall will undoubt-edly bring all of us. Let’s all enjoy what is rest of the summer and start gearing up for a great school year. Another date to keep in mind is this year’s Glasgow Scottie Homecom-ing Spirit Week scheduled to take place Monday, Sept 28 – Saturday, Oct. 3rd.

Until next time … Go Scotties!

A Great year Predicted at GHSSHAWNDA ZAHARA-HARRIS,

GLASGOW HIGH SCHOOL PRINCIPALFOR THE COURIER

Welcome back to the 2015-2016 school year. It seems like just yes-terday we were finishing graduation and here we are finishing up our summer fun and gearing up for the studies ahead. This year GHS will see a transition back to only a 9-12 high school setting and we are look-ing forward to the possibilities for our students that this brings.

Our staff remains stable with GHS only losing one staff member over the summer and we are very excited to be adding full-time choir director Maureen Leech to our team.

Students will experience a more updated library area as our librarian has been hard at work transitioning to the makerspace/Internet café concept for our students. We have departmentalized our building to create a better flow for students and provide opportunities for enrichment and support in those areas. Many of our teachers have attended in-depth training over the summer to create more opportunities for our students within our new and old course offer-

ings. We look forward to the contin-ued growth of GHS students.

We will be continuing with the 92-minute block schedule that was implemented last year and the A/B Day calendar. We will also be add-ing a homeroom academy (think of it as a homeroom) for all of our students to better assist with the many transitions that occur at the high school level. Our goal this year is to create an environment that allows every student to thrive and the adult support to help get them there. It is also our goal to give back to our community as much as possible through these homeroom academies, so if you have a need for help or an idea connected to our community, please contact GHS ad-ministration. GHS staff and students appreciate the enormous support that we receive from our community and this year we are dedicated to having the entire student body giv-ing back in some fashion to show our gratitude.

Our GHS Office will be open for business on Aug. 18, for new registration. Please bring proof of immunization and birth certificate copies with you to complete this

process. Also be aware of the NEW and UPDATED immunization re-quirements for K-12 students, both new and returning. If you have schedule changes to make, our guidance counselor will be available starting Aug. 21. Feel free to come up or call to make an appointment. Thank you for your assistance with this process so that we can be sure that all students can start on the first day of school.

There will be an Open House at GHS on Aug. 31, and we encourage new and returning students to come say hello, get your locker assign-ments and see the new configuration at GHS. Student schedules will also be available if you did not get yours in the mail in June.

This is going to be a great year at GHS and we cannot wait for the learning to begin. As always, if you have questions or concerns, please come talk with GHS Administration. Communication is one of our top priorities. Enjoy what is left of the summer and we will see everyone on Sept. 1, at 8 am.

Sincerely,Shawnda Zahara-Harris,

Glasgow High School Principal

Welcome Back to School at NashuaJENNIFER m. CUNNINGHAm

SUPERINTENDENT, NASHUA SCHOOLFOR THE COURIER

Dear Parents and Students:I am excited to welcome you

back to school for the 2015-2016 school year at Nashua Schools! The staff and I have been busy preparing for an exciting year of learning and growth. At this time, I would like to take this opportunity to review several important school procedures with you. Your adherence to these important procedures will greatly assist us in maintaining a safe, secure and productive environment for your children.

Student Absence/Tardiness:If an unexpected absence occurs,

please contact the school office by 9 a.m. stating the reason. The office will then inform your child’s teacher. All absences will be recorded as “un-excused” unless there is a call from

the parent or guardian. The school is required by law to verify any and all absences. Tardiness is defined as any unexcused appearance of a student after the scheduled time that the class

begins. When a student’s total number of tardies in a class reaches five, one full day’s unexcused absence will be charged to the student for that class. Attendance and arriving on time are crucial compo-

nents to your child’s success.Student Arrival/ Departure:Students are not to be in the build-

ing before 7:20 a.m. or after 4 p.m. unless under the direct supervision of a parent or school official. Therefore, we ask you to plan accordingly. All doors will be locked except the main entrance during arrival time. First bell will ring at 7:55 a.m. with instruction beginning promptly at 8 a.m.

Visiting our School:For the safety of those within the

school, all visitors must first report to the school office. Visits to individual classrooms during instructional time are permitted only with approval of the superintendent and teacher and so long as their duration or frequency does not interfere with the delivery of instruction or disrupt the normal school environment.

School Meals:Accounts are to be kept current.

Please make a deposit on your child’s account prior to the beginning of school. Weekly statements will be sent out informing you of your child’s account status in order to assist you in maintaining a positive balance on your child’s account.

Please feel free to call the office with any questions. I look forward to working with you.

Sincerely,Jennifer M. Cunningham

Superintendent, Nashua School

FOR HI-LINE FARM & RANCHWhat’s going to happen with the Farm

Bill and the Department of Labor’s over-reach on “child labor” were hot topics during the Montana Farm Bureau Conven-tion Nov. 6-9 in Missoula. American Farm Bureau Public Policy Director Mary Kay Thatcher covered the ever-changing infor-mation about the Farm Bill.

Although the so-called congressional “Super Committee” after the convention failed to come up with a deficit reduction plan as some expected, its earlier idea to cut $23 billion out of the USDA budget drew comments from Thatcher.

“Agriculture is definitely going to be tak-ing a good share of cuts,” she said. “How-ever, it’s better to deal with this now in this committee than waiting until next year.”

Thatcher, basing her comments on current

knowledge, further said that she beliewed “conservation programs will be a large part of the cuts, with reductions in Conservation Reserve Program land. There is land in CRP that isn’t erodible and should not even be part of the program. There may be some cuts in working lands programs. Right now there are 23 conservation programs; Farm Bureau has long been a proponent of combining some of them. I suspect that when the dust clears, there will be five or less programs.”

Thatcher explained a proposal for com-modity programs, noting that with the cuts, if it’s done right, there can still be a safety net for agriculture.

Another topic of discussion was the De-partment of Labor’s proposed restrictions on children working in agriculture. Under the proposed rules, youth under the age of 16 would not be able to do any labor on a farm

or ranch without restrictions – unless it’s their parents’ place.

“That leaves out aunts, uncles, grand-parents, or even having a neighbor kid over to help stack hay bales,” notes Thatcher. “Under the proposed rules kids under the age of 16 wouldn’t be able to bale hay, milk cows, help with newborn calves or suckling piglets, or even ride a horse to gather cattle. Farmers and ranchers need to speak up and say how outrageous this is. Visit www.regu-lations.gov to file comments on the rule.”

Even the youth who would be affected by these laws are speaking out. During the Montana Farm Bureau Foundation’s Youth Speech Contest, Garett Prince from Drummond had a lot to say on that exact subject.

“I am only 12 years old and I help run the ranch that has been in my family for over 140 years,” Prince said in his speech that won him second place in the junior division. “I plan to remain a part of the agricultural industry and hope to continue my involve-ment in my family’s ranching operation. It scares me to think my future career and the future of my family’s ranch may be on the line today.”

Prince believes the Department of

Labor’s proposed rules will destroy job op-portunities for young people and damage the nation’s economy.

“The Department of Labor’s reasoning for these new policies is that kids like me, the ones under 16, lack cognitive ability to perform these tasks. I have been working with animals, operating machinery and rid-ing horses all my life and suddenly my age is what determines my ‘cognitive ability,’” Prince said in his speech.

Prince said because of the work ag kids do at a young age, they have a strong work ethic, resourcefulness and responsibility. “In a time when our country is battling unemployment, a struggling economy and generation of unmotivated youth, our gov-ernment is going to un-employ thousands of hard-working individuals? That just doesn’t make sense. I hope the Department of Labor wakes up and realizes that kids who start working long before turning 16 years old are the ones who are not standing in the unem-ployment line by the age of 25.”

Other hot button issues during the con-vention were the proposal to move Yellow-stone National Park bison to four locations around Montana, risk management and estate tax planning.

Prince said because of the work ag kids do at a young age, they have a strong work ethic, resourcefulness and responsibility. “In a time when our country is battling unemployment, a struggling economy and generation of unmotivated youth, our gov-ernment is going to un-employ thousands of hard-working individuals? That just doesn’t make sense. I hope the Department of Labor wakes up and realizes that kids who start working long before turning 16 years old are the ones who are not standing in the unem-ployment line by the age of 25.”

Other hot button issues during the con-vention were the proposal to move Yellow-stone National Park bison to four locations around Montana, risk management and estate tax planning.

Opheim School is scheduled to begin classes on Wednesday, August 19th, 2015, for grades 1-12. Teachers will be returning on August 17th for two PIR days before student instruction begins. Any new students and kindergarten students who have not con-tacted the school are asked to do so before Wednesday, August 12th.A calendar will be sent home the first day of school with the students. Opheim School will NOT be offering pre-school for the 2015-2016 school year. The school day is from 8:05 am-3:36 pm. Students in grades 7-12 will have an 8 period daily class schedule. Transition time between classes will be 3 minutes.

The Valley County Health Dept. is holding a Back to School Clinic on August 18th, from 2-5:45 p.m. at the Health Dept. , 501 Court Square #11, Glasgow, MT. The 2015 Mon-tana Legislature revised school im-munization requirements for school attendance through the passage of House Bill (HB) 158. This law re-quires all students attending school to be vaccinated against varicella disease (chickenpox) and to receive a booster of pertussis vaccine before entering 7th grade. Please contact the Valley County Health Dept. at 228-6261 for more information on the immunization requirements and on the Back to School Clinic.

Parents: Please contact the school office when your child is absent or going to be absent from school. It is a state law that the school office checks with parents if a student is not in school. A quick phone call or email from you is very helpful. Unless your children ride the school bus, students are not to arrive at the school before 7:45 a.m.

Opheim School is requesting a call from parents to the bus route driver when their child(ren) will not be riding the bus on a particular day. This will eliminate wasted time and fuel.

The bus unloading zone will be in front of the high school doors. Please do not park in that area from 7:45 am to 4 pm. The students will be loading the bus after school on the south end of the school block. All drivers are reminded to drive slowly on the streets around the

school. No locker stackers are to be transported with the students on the school bus for safety reasons. Grades 7-12 student locker assign-ments have been set. Students may drop off their locker stackers at the

school anytime. Substitute teachers, sub-

stitute bus drivers and sub-stitute cooks are needed. If you are interested in helping in one of the above areas in the absence of Opheim School employees, please

contact Opheim School at 762-3213.

TONy WARREN, OPHEIm SUPERINTEDENT

FOR THE COURIEROn behalf of the staff at Opheim

School, I am happy to welcome you to the 2015-16 school year! We are looking forward to a productive partnership with you to ensure that our children achieve their highest potential.

We recognize that in order to be successful in school, our children need support from both the home and school. We know a strong partnership with you will make a great difference in your child’s education.

As partners, we share the respon-sibility for our children’s success and want you to know that we will do our

best to carry out our responsibilities. We ask that you guide and support your child’s learning by ensuring that he/she:

– Attends school daily and arrives on time, ready for the day’s learning experience.

– Completes all homework assign-ments given by teachers.

– Reads daily to develop a love for reading and to improve literacy skills.

– Shares school experiences with you so that you are aware of his/her school life.

– Informs you if she/she needs additional support in any area or subject.

– Knows that you expect him/her

to succeed in school.I would like to recognize the hard

work of our staff members during the summer months. John McLeod, Susie Kirby and Kent Nelson worked diligently to get our school in great shape to open the school year. Also, a thank you goes out to Terry Risa for her efforts in keeping the library open during the summer and to Con-nie Miller for her continued efforts as district clerk.

We are fortunate to add three tal-ented new staff members this fall. Mr. Chase Redfield is our Industrial Arts/Agriculture Education teacher. He will also head up the FFA and likely take on some coaching duties. Chase is an OHS and UM Western graduate.

Mr. Daniel Monroe is our PE/Health teacher and will take on the guidance duties as well as some coaching posi-tions. Daniel is a U.S. Army veteran and recent graduate of Louisiana State University. Ms. Donette Johnson is our new school secretary. Donette is a graduate of OHS and Dawson Community College. Please help me in welcoming these individuals to the Opheim School and community.

Finally, I want you to know that one of my most important goals this year is to continue keeping the lines of com-munication open with you. Please do not hesitate to contact me at 762-3213 or [email protected] if you have any questions or concerns.

Kind regards, Tony Warren
