Donate to the CFHS Scholarship Endowment Fund

Thank you to all who have contributed to this cause!

With your support, we can continue to build a lasting legacy.

Welcome to November

Welcome to November! As the days get shorter and the air grows crisp, we step into a month filled with purpose, appreciation, and reflection. November also brings a meaningful moment for our school community to honor those who have served our country. As we approach Veterans Day, we encourage students to take time to recognize the brave men and women who have dedicated their lives to protecting our freedoms. We remain grateful for their sacrifice and are proud to be part of a community that values service, remembrance, and respect. We can't wait to recognize them, in person, on the 11th!

Speaking of giving—I'd like to share that the Clark Fork Community and Staff Scholarship and Endowment Fund continues to grow. I am truly grateful for the generosity and support that so many have shown in helping build this fund, which directly supports our students as they graduate and pursue post-secondary opportunities.  As many of you know, my dream is that no student who graduates from our school will ever have to forgo additional education or training due to financial barriers. Thanks to the continued support of our community, we are moving closer to making that dream a reality. If you are considering charitable contributions as the year comes to a close, please keep this fund in mind. Every contribution—no matter the size—makes a meaningful difference.

We are genuinely excited to begin the second quarter of the school year! This new quarter offers students an opportunity to refocus, set new academic and personal goals, and build on the progress they’ve already made, looking toward the rapidly approaching end of the first semester. We look forward to seeing you at Parent-Teacher Conferences on November 19th and 20th—your partnership plays a vital role in student success, and we appreciate your continued support. As fall sports wrap up, we celebrate the dedication and accomplishments of our student-athletes, and we are excited to kick off basketball season and cheer on our teams as they begin competition. We hope to pack the bleachers this year so come, wear your blue and gold, and help us cheer them on!

As we move toward Thanksgiving, we are reminded of the many blessings we share as a school community. November is a month of gratitude, and we will encourage students to express thanks, show kindness, and support one another each day. Whether it’s offering appreciation to a teacher, helping a classmate, or recognizing the support of family at home, these moments of gratitude help build a positive and connected school culture. We are thankful for you and wish your family a wonderful month filled with reflection, celebration, and heartfelt appreciation.

GO WAMPUS CATS!
