This year Mrs. Donnelly (thanks to a co-worker) is formally encouraging her students to read independently. The goal is to finish one book per quarter. Many students are embracing the opportunity and the result is this jar full of books her students have finished. Other side effects include students discovering or re-discovering that they kind of enjoy reading, and students tackling classics like The Lord of the Rings and The Odyssey. Mrs. Donnelly is very impressed with these results and hopes her students continue to impress her with their reading. She is also hoping to finish her own book sometime soon!

The newly formed Three Forks FFA Alumni and Supporters Chapter is up and running, and we want you to join!
The National FFA Alumni & Supporters was created as a form of membership with the primary purpose of supporting and promoting FFA, FFA activities, and agricultural education. Members are committed to three priorities: supporting FFA students, supporting FFA Advisors, and telling the FFA story.
Alumni & Supporters are a fundamental part of the National FFA Organization. FFA advisors and members across the country rely on volunteers to support their chapters through the gifts of time, talent, and resources in order to gain community support and give teachers more time and freedom to do what they do best – teach students.
You do not have to be a former FFA member to support FFA, agricultural education, and the future of agriculture. Members can be parents, grandparents, community members, and sponsors. You have to want to make a difference! If you are proud of FFA and want to help local FFA members acquire knowledge and experience from agricultural education and FFA activities, becoming an adult member is for you!
If you are interested in joining the Three Forks FFA Alumni and Supporters, reach out to Mr. Noyes at tnoyes@threeforks.k12.mt.us. Remember, you do not have to be an FFA Alumni to be in this organization; any background or supporter is welcome! Join today!
Our officer team includes:
President - Gunnar Lahaug (lahauggunnar@gmail.com)
Vice-President - Kelton Jenson
Secretary - Amee Smith
Treasurer - Jennifer Burm

We are currently experiencing data issues with our phone system at the school.
This issue is not on our end but is due to an outside service problem. If you try to call and we are unable to answer or you can’t hear us, please wait a few minutes and try again. Our phone service is intermittent and coming in and out at this time.
Our internet is working, and we are able to receive emails if you’d like to reach out that way instead.
Thank you for your understanding and patience!

We have a schedule change for our JV football team.
We were previously scheduled to play at Boulder on Monday, October 27th, but since that falls during the first round of playoffs, both coaching staffs agreed it would be best not to have a JV game that week in preparation for postseason play.
The JV game has been moved to Three Forks on Friday, October 24th, at 3:30 pm, before our scheduled varsity game that evening.
