Attention MS/HS Parents:
Next week, starting December 12 through December 16th, Three Forks Schools will be administering mental health and suicide risk screenings to all students grades 6-12.
This screening is intended to be preventative, helpful, and informative to our families. The screening will take between 5 and 10 minutes for each student and any student results that are concerning will have their parent/guardian contacted as soon as possible.
This screening program is part of our Signs of Suicide Prevention program that has been ongoing over the last month at Three Forks High School and Middle School and was fully presented and approved at the November 15th school board meeting. It is both provided and supported through the Rural Behavioral Health Institute
If you have any concerns or questions feel free to reach out to The Three Fork Administrative team list in the letter provided.
Please click on the link below for the OPT OUT Letter that was mailed to all families last week. Feel free to print and use in the event you did not receive the mailer.

Dear TFS Parents & Community,
Construction continues at TFS with the following building update:
Three additional entrances should be completed within the next month including the cafeteria and high school entrances on Neal St and the new middle school / district office entrance on the north side facing the stadium. All three school entrances (elementary, middle, and high school) will offer secure access to the building through camera surveillance and a monitored "buzz-in" system. Please note that ALL visitors will be required to sign in at the building offices.
The TFS District is working diligently to improve and enhance building safety and security for students and staff. Construction progress continues to provide challenges as we work to maintain security. As many of you know, there are many construction crew members working within our schools throughout the week. With this in mind, we are requiring everyone within the building to display a name badge with proper identification at all times.
In conclusion, construction will continue throughout the remainder of the school year as we complete renovations in the gyms, locker rooms, weight room, and middle school areas. As many of you have witnessed, the additions and renovations are greatly improving the overall TFS campus. Please support us in our efforts to maintain a secure learning environment for students as we move closer to the conclusion of construction.
Do not hesitate to reach out with any questions, concerns, or suggestions.
Sincerely,
Dr Rhonda Uthlaut
