Welcome to December
Dear Families and Community Members,
As we enter December at Clark Fork High School, I want to take a moment to reflect on what an incredible year it has already been. Our students continue to impress us with their hard work, positive attitudes, and growing achievements both in and out of the classroom. The support from our families and community plays a huge part in that success, and for that, I am truly grateful.
December also marks the full start of basketball season, and excitement is already building in the gym. We’re looking forward to cheering on our Wampus Cats as they compete, grow, and represent our school with pride. Your presence and encouragement mean the world to our athletes. We hope to once again pack the bleachers with your positive energy and sportsmanship.
This season is a meaningful time for end of year charitable giving. I warmly invite families and community members, whether they are able to give or simply wish to support, to consider contributing to the Clark Fork Staff and Community Endowment Fund. Every donation—large or small—directly supports our graduating seniors as they take their next steps toward college, career training, or future opportunities. Together, we can help ensure that finances are never a barrier to their dreams. Individuals or businesses seeking a cause that truly matters will find this endowment fund a valuable opportunity to give back to the community and make a lasting impact. If you have any questions about the fund, please don't hesitate to reach out to me at the school.
With the snow beginning to fall, winter has officially arrived, bringing with it a season full of outdoor fun and activities. Many of us are already looking forward to skiing, snowshoeing, and enjoying the beauty of our North Idaho winter. As you head out to school events or snowy adventures, please remember to travel safely.
Thank you for your continued partnership and commitment to our students. I wish you all a joyful, safe, and memorable December, and as always, for supporting our school and being part of our Wampus Cat Pride.
Sincerely, Phil Kemink
