Congratulations to Siena Almazon, Kodi Holmes & Oakley Fallang for being nominated for the Three Forks Middle School student of the quarter! Siena was selected as the overall winner for quarter #1!!

Seating area in the new garden space at the school is compete. The gardens are assembled and tucked in for winter. Three Forks students have assembled the furniture, built a garden shed, constructed the gardens, moved six yards of garden soil and 4 yards of gravel through the school in wheel barrow to build this extended classroom space for the entire school to enjoy. The worm garden and composting areas are next on our schedule. Thank you to Wagners Nursery and Landscaping, Three Forks Lumber and Ready Mix, Circle S Seeds, Montana Farmers Union Foundation, JaTannna and Tyler Williams, Donors Choose, Tyler Oehmcke and GCC for the gravel delivered this week. See You in the Spring for seeds, sun and buzzy 🐝!

Three Forks School District invites the community of Three Forks, parents, and all Veterans to attend our 2024 Veteran's Day Program.

TFES parents, please have your children wear patriotic colors or nice attire.

On behalf of Three Forks FFA and Three Forks School Agriculture Program, we want to say a huge thank you for all the support the community and our sponsors/supporters give to our organization and our members. Being a part of the Three Forks School Leaf Raking Day today is a small way of saying thank you and giving back to a community that supports and allows us to exist. We hope to continue to find other ways to constantly give back and show our appreciation to this wonderful community. Thank you for supporting Three Forks FFA, Three Forks Agriculture, and for allowing us to give back to this great community.

Leaf Raking Fun: 7th grade boys versus girls competition--who can fill the most bags?

Tomorrow (Thurs 11/6) is a SCHOOL-WIDE hat day to benefit a local family who lost their house to a fire this week. Any and all hats are welcome, the more fun, the better! $1 minumum per hat.

One of the best units to do in the Principals of Agriculture class is the Tractor Certification Unit. During this unit, students spend two weeks learning about tractor safety, tractor maintenance, and tractor operations. Then students get the opportunity to actually drive a tractor! Students must complete a tractor driving course, and follow basic hand signals to successfully dump a load. Upon completion of the course, all students receive an official certificate from the Department of Labor that certifies them as an official tractor operator. Every student passed and will receive their official certificate. Nobody crashed and Noyes was not run over! A huge, huge thank you to Matt Marx and Torgerson's of Belgrade for bringing us the tractor so that we could do this!

Poinsettias are available again through the Three Forks FFA! Please feel free to reach out through Facebook or email to Mr. Noyes, and we will connect you with an FFA member. They will arrive the first week in December! Thank you for all the support of Three Forks FFA!!!

Friendly reminder to middle and high school families that leaf raking is tomorrow (Wednesday 11/5). If students have rakes, gloves, and water, and they dress for the weather, the day will be super successful for everyone!
