The Junior High and High School are going on a field trip! Check out the flyer and permission slip for details. Forms are going home with students today and we need signed forms back to the high school by Wednesday. Sorry about the short notice, and we do realize that State FFA will be gone (cue the sad music). We are excited for this opportunity for our high school and junior high to see a live show at Alberta Bair and get some bowling in also. It's a great day to be a Husky!

Today our K–12 students had a great visit from Garrett with Eagle Mount! He shared about the organization’s programs and the many ways they create opportunities for individuals with disabilities to get involved in outdoor recreation and stay active. Students even got the chance to try out a sit ski, giving them a hands-on look at how adaptive equipment makes skiing accessible for everyone. Thank you to Garrett and Eagle Mount for an engaging and inspiring presentation!

On March 21, people around the world wear bright, mismatched socks to celebrate World Down Syndrome Day. The date (3/21) represents the three copies of the 21st chromosome found in people with Down syndrome, and socks were chosen because chromosomes can resemble socks. The Absarokee Unified Club invites you to rock your socks and celebrate inclusion!

Friendly reminder that all Juniors will be taking the state-required ACT test with Mrs. Reissig on Tuesday, March 24.
