SUPERINTENDENT NOTICE: Its Homecoming Week 2021 and the District would like to invite you to get involved with the activities taking place though-out the week.
Because of the bus driver shortage we have changed the traditional Homecoming Parade Route. In the past we have had enough buses and drivers to transport the entire elementary school to the Park for the parade. This year, we will be bringing the parade to the elementary. See the Homecoming Parade Route map for more details.
The Parade will begin at 2:00 PM on Friday, October 8, 2021 from the staging area in the Upper Parking Lot of the High School (This is where students and the floats will line up). The parade will then proceed out on Pine Butte Drive and into the Ponderosa Butte Golf Course Parking Area. The public is invited to park in the Softball Field Parking Lot. Parents and public are asked to get there before 1:30 PM as traffic will be stopped on Pine Butte Drive for the parade and you might miss it if you aren't there early.
The parade will continue back on Pine Butte Drive and head to Pine Butte Elementary School. It will go through the Bus Drop Off and head back to the Upper Parking Lot at Colstrip High School.

Curriculum Director Notes:
Sept. 27-Oct. 1 is Native American Week. We will be doing activities in the classrooms in the indivicual buildings and we will be putting up the teepees in front of each building and singing the Flag song. We will not be having an exhibition Pow Wow at this time due to the increasing Covid numbers and the number of people unable to participate. We do hope to host it at a later time this spring if we are able to. Indian Education for All takes place throughout the school year in each building not just this week. We encourage participants in classes when possible.
