McCoy Richens and Mrs. Jenny Laisnez were the lucky winners of the Teton Pass Youth Season Pass raffle. We earned $615 to go towards our playground improvement/update fund. I would like to thank Scott Inbody for donating the two season passes for this fundraiser. Thank you for supporting our fundraising efforts.
The Book Fair is coming!
AR Goals
I have partnered with Pizza Hut in Great Falls and they have sent me tons of Free Personalize pizza coupons to distribute to students reaching their reading goals. I have spoken with the students about how to get a coupon. Just read books and take quizzes. I will look at their quizzes at the end of the month and distribute coupons to those who met their goal. I will update them during library lessons about where they are in relation to their goals. If you click on the progress button in the top right corner of their AR account, you will see their status.

Choteau Elementary School Annual Fundraiser
Choteau Elementary School and Badger Track Customs are partnering for our annual fundraiser in place of the “cookie dough” fundraiser we have done in the past. This year, we are offering friends, families, and community members Bulldog apparel to purchase. Students will be out and about and making phone calls asking people to purchase items. If you would like to purchase items and have not been contacted by a student, please call Mrs. Christensen or Mrs. Shepherd at 406-466-5364. If you would like to sponsor a family in need, please call so we can make arrangements for you to make a donation. All proceeds go to playground equipment and improvements. Thank you for supporting our fundraising efforts!
5th Grade Parents: The estimated time for the 5th grade to get back from their field trip is 3:50 PM. We can not hold buses, so please make arrangements to pick up your child.
Author Michelle Sheldon will visit Choteau Schools on October 2nd.

Elementary Families,
I have posted the supply lists on the web page in "Documents" in the Explore tab. It is a Google document that contains all the grades.
Opportunity for school supplies.
Hello Choteau Elementary Families! I hope you are enjoying summer. I appreciate your patience regarding classroom assignments. I have most of the class lists finalized and will be passing them on to the teachers soon. We are excited to have Mrs. Amanda Lightner (5th grade), Mrs. Lindsay Lawson (5th grade), Mrs. Heather McCartney-Duty (1st grade), and Ms. Alexis McWilliams (Kindergarten) join our staff. We are still in need of a 2nd-grade teacher, but I do have a contingency plan in place in case we do not hire one before school starts. Because most of the classroom lists are finalized, I will no longer accept parent requests. Thank you for your understanding, and I will keep you posted.
Update on the school calendar that was posted on Facebook: Kindergarten first day of school is the same as the rest of the school. First day of school for everyone is August 29th.
