Respectfully,
Weather Events: Old Man Winter isn’t gone yet. Next week it is supposed to be very cold so please send kids with appropriate winter clothes. Stay tuned to the radio, email, or school facebook page in the event that school is delayed or cancelled. We will do our best to make decisions the day before a cancellation. Sometimes the decision is made before bus routes leave which is 6:45 AM. 750 KERR radio will be notified and email will be sent out in the event of cancellations.
School Counselor Week: This week is National School Counselor Week. We want to thank Marie Michaels who we share with Dixon for all of her work with our students. We are also very excited to introduce Gretchen Rude as a part-time counselor here at Charlo. Ms. Rude is completing her Masters at the University of Montana this semester while working at Charlo 2 days a week. She has been a welcome addition to our staff! We are very fortunate to have both counselors helping our students. Thank you ladies!
Grades 3-5 Ski Trip: The ski trip for grades 3-5 is on Feb. 14. An information sheet from Lookout Pass did not include pricing. Mr. Bartschi is working to get pricing information out as soon as possible.
Plains JHGB Jamboree Canceled: Plains had to cancel this Saturday’s JHGB Jamboree due to staffing shortages. We are trying to arrange for other teams to come play our JH girls here instead. More to come as soon as we confirm something.
Illness at School: We had lots of students out due to illness this week. Thanks to everyone who has been cooperative about keeping sick students at home. We hope everyone can recover quickly. Please keep kids home when they are ill. We will continue to request close contacts of COVID 19 to wear face coverings. Additionally, we ask students/staff to wear face coverings when there are exacerbating symptoms such a chronic coughing and sneezing or runny noses. We want to do everything we can to mitigate the spread of all the bugs going around so that we can continue to serve students in person. We appreciate the effort and cooperation with helping us to stay in school face to face.
Today is the last day of the 1st semester and 2nd Qtr: Report cards will go out next week.
Schedule Change for HSBB: HS basketball games will start at 2:30 Saturday (1/22) vs Two Eagle: JVB, JVG, VG, VB. All games will be played in the main gym.
Participation Fees Due: Junior High Girls Basketball participation fees are due today 1/20/2022.
HS Wrestling Cancelled: Tonight’s match between Mission/Charlo and Superior has been cancelled. They will try to reschedule.
HSBB Games Cancelled: The high school games vs Superior on Jan. 14 have been postponed and hopefully will be rescheduled.
Event Parking: Please be aware of Senior Citizen and Disabled parking zones near and around the gyms. They are set aside for our older fans or fans who might have a disability which requires closer parking. Please observe the signs and park farther away to make room for others who need to be in proximity.
4 Day School Week Survey: An email was sent out earlier this week, and again today, surveying parents about their feelings on whether or not to continue with a 4 day school week for the 2022-2023 school year. Just over half of parents on our email list have submitted their survey. If you have not done so please submit your opinion as soon as possible. If you have problems with the survey or wish to submit something paper/pencil please contact the office at 644-2206.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! On behalf of everyone at Charlo School District 7J, I want to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Thank you for all of your support of the school system, staff, and students.
Thankful for Charlo Volunteer Firemen and MHP: We had an accident in Moiese on the bus route when another driver pulled out in front of our school bus. It caused a collision but thankfully, nobody was injured. Thanks to our volunteer firemen for responding so quickly and being so helpful at the scene. The State Trooper was also great to work with figuring things out. We are very lucky to have such people in our community!
