Senior Parents: We need Senior Photos ASAP for the senior banners that will be posted along the street. Please send them in to bshermer@pcsd5.org. They CANNOT be screenshots of your child's photo. It must be the actual download OR a physical copy. If you have your student taking photos this fall/winter please contact me immediately via email or at ext. 109.
The goal is to have the banners up by homecoming.
Attention Senior Parents: PTA is putting up the wonderful senior banners along the street again this year, and we need to start collecting senior images ASAP.
Digital Copies (not a screenshot), may be emailed to bshermer@pcsd5.org or physical copies may be brought in to be scanned.
If you have not gotten any done or are waiting later this later to take photos, please contact Mrs. Shermer immediately at the same address provided. We want to get these banners up as soon as possible.
The Digital Photography Students are off to a great start! These are just a few images completed by the students the first week of school. Students will learn about composition, lighting, and video over the course of this semester.
The ag program, for grades 8-12, is currently being held in the back half of the ag facility where we usually run our welding and other programs that need space. The front part is currently being used for storage as we get ready to clean it out. When the front portion is torn down, we will temporarily lose a classroom, the wood working area, water and bathrooms, and storage. The ag classes will move to the new modular we brought in. Remember, as noted earlier, these new modulars don’t have bathrooms. So students will be traveling between the back half of the ag building to the modular and then to the school building constantly until we are able to put up the Sprung structure.
The new structure, even though it is a moveable structure, will have a new heating system, bathrooms, and a woodworking area, just like a permanent structure would have. Class will still move between the modular and the ag building, depending on what is being taught and how it is being taught as we won’t set up walls to separate out a classroom in the Sprung structure.
Our ag program is a vital program for our school. We have had so many students go through the programs we offer in ag. Many of those have remained in our community and continue to farm, ranch, run businesses, and support our ag and FFA programs. Continuing to provide a safe and modern facility to grow our programs is very important to our school and community. Your vote on the building reserve levy is very important to our program offerings.
The Friday night football game at Fort Benton is on the NFHS network but you need to look up Fort Benton High School to find it.
How does $70,000 per year for five years benefit the school and specifically the ag program and FFA in Park City. The $70,000 will be used to make payments on a loan that will enable the school to purchase a Sprung structure (example in the picture) for our Ag program. As noted earlier, the front half of our Ag building needs to be removed due to structural issues. The district looked at a number of options and settled on the Sprung style of buildings because of its durability, energy efficiency, and mobility. The Board looked at the possibility of renting the building for five years vs purchasing it, but the cost difference was minimal. One of the best reasons to purchase the structure is that it is movable. So when the district is able to eventually build a new school, the Sprung structure can be moved to either that facility or to the bus barn to be used as a bus shop. That would enable the district the opportunity to sell the current ag building property without losing its investment in this structure. REMEMBER TO VOTE ON SEPTEMBER 19.
