Stay Tuned For Competiton UPDATES!
congratulations on a great

In an abundance of caution, the Three Forks School District was in temporary lockdown. The lockdown has now been lifted. Due to a regional threat, law enforcement officials were investigating and on the scene at Three Forks Schools. This threat originated as a social media post that involved a threat directed at another district - NOT THREE FORKS. Unfortunately, the message was forwarded from a cell phone that pinged in our school resulting in the district lockdown. The sheriff's office followed up on this, finding that there was no threat to the TFS schools. TFS students are safe and the building is secure. Parents were alerted through our Infinite Campus communication system.
The ProStart cooking portion is underway, 60 minutes from now the FCCLA kids will have a three course meal. Then they will present their restaurant management project.
Three Forks FFA is kicking it into gear and getting ready for the Montana State FFA Convention! Three Forks FFA would like to offer a sincere thank you to Jason with Montana Logging Association for coming out our way to teach our team about timber cruising and measuring tree volume. We really appreciate you sharing your expertise with us. Thank you to Corey Lewellen for getting us in contact with John!
