Starting Monday, the high school student council is leading a food drive. This is a competition against Choteau. If Fairfield brings in more pounds of food by Friday, their gym lobby will be decorated in BLUE and WHITE when our basketball team plays in Choteau. If not, ours will be maroon and gold when they come here. Please help us collect lots of food and beat Choteau. At the end of the week, the donated items will be given to our local food pantry to help those in need.

We’ve recently seen a growing issue with community members placing personal or household garbage into school trash receptacles and dumpsters. While we understand it may seem convenient, this is creating a problem for our district.
When a dumpster is picked up and the lid cannot fully close, the district is charged an “overage fee” each time. Last month, we experienced an excessive number of these overage charges — even during a time when we did not have school for two weeks — due to garbage being placed in school dumpsters.
This issue is especially costly when large items and cardboard boxes are thrown away without being broken down, causing dumpsters to overflow much faster than normal.
✅ We respectfully ask that you do not use school trash bins or dumpsters unless you have permission.
Your cooperation helps protect school funds so they can be used for what matters most: supporting students and staff.
Thank you for your understanding and support.

The school was recently contacted by the Montana Department of Transportation regarding upcoming roadwork. Beginning Monday, December 15, MDT plans to start a project to replace a culvert on MT HWY 565, commonly known as the “Simms–Fairfield Cut Across.”
During construction, drivers will be able to travel as far south as Blackfoot Coulee Road from the north, and to within approximately 3 miles north of Simms from the south. There will be no through traffic until the culvert repairs are completed.
The project is expected to take 1–2 weeks, depending on weather and other variables.
Please help spread the word to anyone who may be affected by this temporary closure.
