While the online version of the Book Fair will open earlier on 10/27 (with free direct-to-home shipping on purchases over $25.00), those wishing to shop in-person can do so starting Monday, 10/30. For more information, head to this webpage: https://bookfairs.scholastic.com/bf/wfmorrisonschool & Do you want to know the neat thing? ALL Book Fair purchases go towards earning money for our school!

However, only students with completed permission forms may participate; permission forms can be picked up in the office. While Max, Easton, & Danny from Miss. Mel's transitional kindergarten class were all smiles yesterday while learning about fire prevention, we like to think they were also excited thinking about Smiles Across Montana!

Introducing the first WEEKLY parent & guardian newsletter for Troy School District's Junior & Senior High School. Included you will find information about upcoming events, important deadlines, & our 'Trojan of the Week.' This newsletter is meant to act as a guide for parents/guardians who want to encourage their students in daily & future endeavors, but are not necessarily sure where to start or are unaware of educational events happening within the District. Ultimately, we want to help YOU help your student, & we want feedback on how to do that! While this is the first 'Parent & Guardian Newsletter,' it is a work in progress that we want you to help mold. In the comments, as a message, or even by email [osmurkowski@troyk12.org], let us know what you would like to see in future newsletters! & As always, thank you for your continued support!

Give us a follow & stay tuned this week for updates!

Please join us in giving a huge THANK YOU to everyone that made last week possible!

Who's excited?

ATTN: Tomorrow evening's showing of the movie 'The Game Plan' will be postponed to a later date that is TBD. We will update everyone once a new date has been finalized. Thanks!

Please help us in extending a HUGE thank you to the Kootenai Tribe of Idaho, as their continued support of our district & students is appreciated beyond words.
