Second Semester: We are two weeks into the second semester already. Mid-terms are on Feb. 22. One thing all us can work on is planning ahead so please stay in touch with your student’s progress in the classroom. Given our student information system, email, and a simple phone call; it’s easier than ever to keep up with how your student is doing in the classroom. Don’t wait until mid-terms or the last week of the quarter to check on grades. If you have questions about monitoring student progress please contact the office at 644-2206.

Attendance: Showing up is the number one reason for success in the classroom, on the team, or at your job. Conversely, poor attendance is the greatest challenge to accomplishing goals and being successful in academics, athletics, and at your place of work. Please stress the importance of good attendance. Stress the importance of being on time to class. They are important characteristics that can make or break achievement in all facets of life!

PARENTS CONTACTING STUDENTS/STAFF DURING THE SCHOOL DAY

Unfortunately we have been inundated lately by parents interrupting the instructional day with phone calls, texts, and messages. Instructional time is being interrupted by parents calling ahead to have their students checked out during the day. Instructional time is being interrupted by wanting to meet with teachers during the day without making appointments. It’s being interrupted by wanting staff to get messages to their students about riding the bus or not riding the bus. It’s being interrupted by calling teachers in their classroom while they are teaching to have personal conversations having nothing to do with education of students. It has become such a distraction that we have to make some changes to some things taken for granted in our school.

Pearl Harbor: Today marks the anniversary of one of the most infamous days in world history when Japan bombed Pearl Harbor. It is always good to take stock of such occasions remembering the sacrifice of the sailors, soldiers, and airmen killed on that fateful day.

**Arlee is having a tough time finding people to help work games so there have been daily changes this week to the Junior High Girls BB Tournament. The latest we know of is that our girls play at 10:30 AM on Friday. We recommend talking to your players and coaches for the most up to date places and times.**

**There have also been daily changes to the High School BB Tournament in Deer Lodge/Anaconda because of schools unable to field teams. The latest we know is that the JV teams play at Noon on Friday and the Varsity teams play at 4 on Friday but this could change again before the day ends. We recommend talking to your players and coaches for the most up to date places and times.**

Winter Sports: Wrestling kicks off this weekend in Polson. High School basketball kicks off Dec. 8 while JHGB wraps up the same weekend. We will need help with score clocks, shot clocks, scorebooks, and ticket taking for basketball. If you can help us out please contact the office 644-2206 or email [email protected].

Athletic Schedules: We do not put out an athletic schedule for high school basketball as there are too many changes on a weekly basis. The reasons for those changes are teams who cancel JV games, shortage of referees, lack of bus drivers, etc. Already, Alberton has cancelled their entire girls basketball season due to lack of interest. The best way to keep up with the basketball schedule and the school schedule for that matter is to get on our school website which is https://charlo.k12.mt.us. At the top of the page click on calendars and you will then see an up to date monthly calendar. Changes in times and places are made on that calendar. As always please call the office 644-2206 if you have any questions.

Happy Thanksgiving! I hope everyone has something to be grateful for this Thanksgiving. As for me, I am very thankful for the staff we have here at Charlo. They are some of the very best in the business when it comes to our community’s children. Whether it’s in the classroom, on the bus, or in the cafeteria our staff is second to none. I am thankful for our trustees who give it their best no matter the situation. Trustees have a thankless job but we should all be thankful that we have people willing to serve the community in such a way. I am thankful for the parents and community members who support our school, students, and staff. I am thankful for our students, especially those students who show up every day despite the challenges they face in today’s world. May all of you have a blessed Thanksgiving Holiday!
