As a teacher with a young family, Mrs. Tiffany Lynch, one of our 5th grade teachers, appreciates both the childcare and 2YK programs at Three Forks Schools. She also mentions how her decision to teach here was based on the community's values of "hard work, accountability, and respect."

The Three Forks School District will host a School Board Candidate Forum and Informational Levy Discussion in the Gymnasium on Wednesday, April 24th @ 5:30 pm. This is a publicly noticed meeting and all community members are welcome. The meeting will be followed by a Spring Festival Open House with activities, food and fun for all!

After working for 18 years as a youth probation officer, Mr. Ben Kane returned to teaching. He is in his first year in the district as a middle and high school social studies teacher. The students appreciate his kindness in the classroom each day!

Three Forks School would like to invite community members and families to our Spring Carnival. Check out the flyer for more information. Hope to see you there!!

The committee has made its decision! Congratulations to the new 2024 - 2025 Three Forks FFA Officer Team! President - Rylee Smith Vice - President - Corban Lewellen Secretary - Sophia Emens Treasurer - Hadley Fallang Reporter - Savannah Emens Sentinel - Kortney Merritt This team is going to do great things!

Three Forks FFA is making friends in high places! While at the Montana State Convention, one of our members, Savannah Emens, had the opportunity to meet Montana Governor, Greg Gianforte. Savannah had the opportunity to briefly talk with the governor about her time in FFA, and why agriculture and FFA are so important to youth like her. It is pretty amazing who you can meet and network with through this youth organization!

It's chick days in the agriculture classroom! The vet science students got the opportunity to work with our feathered friends and spend some time looking into chicken health care. The students worked on using proper chicken restraint methods, practiced vital readings, and did a physical examination of all the chicks. Everyone is healthy! Students also did a deep dive into avian diseases that can affect chickens and what all is entailed in being a Poutry Veterinarian Specialist.

Three Forks FFA held officer interviews last night. All of our candidates did a great job interviewing, the future of the Three Forks FFA Chapter is in good hands. The students will learn their new positions today at lunchtime! We would like to offer a very special thank you to our nominating committee, which consisted of Mr. Steven Fanning (Three Forks Elementary Principal), Calla Donnelly (Senior), Sophie Meskimen (Senior), Emily Evans (FFA Alumni), and Mandy Brandt (FFA Alumni). Thank you for donating your time to help pick the next great leaders of Three Forks FFA!
