Lady Bulldogs 2-2 with DeerLodge- One More Set!!
Handle With Care:
On our website under Tools you will see a link that says "Handle With Care". Any law enforcement, counselor, parent or guardian can enter the link and notify the school that something may be happening at home or outside the school that the Principal and/or Counselor should know about. When you submit a student it will only go to the school principal and counselor. This will give the school a chance to give latitude and understanding when a student maybe under duress, stress, sadness or struggle. For example, if there was a death in the family and one of our students may be affected or upset, this will give the school an opportunity to better prepare and support a student accordingly. Communication is always a great way to work together to support our children. Thank you

Mission Valley Flag Football Inaugural Season - Fall 2019
I wanted to reach out prior to the conclusion of the school year, (the kids are already done, I know) to see if I could put a flyer in your hands that would be able to go out to the kids that will be entering grades 3-6 next school year.
Here is the basic information ;
What : USA Flag Football
Who : Boys and Girls entering grades 3-6 next fall
Where : Depending on local participation, hopefully teams in your own communities, with games being played in Ronan and Polson
Cost : $20 per player with scholarships available. We don't want cost to be prohibitive for any athlete.
What is included : Under Armour receiver gloves for each player. Reversible NFL Jerseys for games. Certification and training for willing adult coaches and officials.
Why : Teach basic skills and engage kids with their community and also with mentors from high school athletes in the valley
Please reach out to me with questions. Registration is not yet open, but we wanted to get this in the hands of the kids to raise awareness. I can provide other assets as well if you would like to share online. Please feel free to forward this to appropriate teachers or staff that I have left off.

Good morning!
I’m sure everyone is aware of the pertussis outbreaks going on in our county, as well as Missoula and Flathead. We now have 18 cases in the county and one additional that is on the reservation but lives in Missoula county. Here’s the current breakdown:
Ages:
<1 year = 4 (3 week, 1 mos., 3 mos., 7 mos.)
1-4 year = 5
5-10 year = 5 + 1 CSKT, Missoula Co.
>10 year = 4
Areas: all from St. Ignatius and Arlee (so far!)
Schools affected:
St. Ignatius high school – 2 students
St. Ignatius Elementary – 1 student
Arlee elementary – 1 student who lives in Missoula county
Mission Head Start – 1 student
Tribal: 2 – 1 Lake county resident, 1 Missoula county
Vaccination status:
Unvaccinated = 13
Under vaccinated = 4
Fully vaccinated = 2
*It is now a community-wide outbreak so we are recommending post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) for all household members, close contacts who are high risk (pregnant, infants, immunocompromised) and close contacts who have close contact with high risk individuals.
*Students who are symptomatic are to be excluded from school until they either have documentation from a HCP that they were evaluated and determined to NOT have pertussis OR after completing 5 days of antibiotics OR for 21 days after the onset of symptoms.
Thanks to all the work at Polson and St. Ignatius schools in getting letters out to parents. If any additional schools are affected you will be notified so we can identify close contacts. If any other schools would like to send out letters to parents proactively, let me know. Otherwise, be on the lookout for symptomatic students & staff and let me know if you send anyone for evaluation!
Thanks,

Dear parents/guardians,
As you may well know, Lake County is currently experiencing an outbreak of Pertussis, or Whooping
Cough. In addition, our neighbors in Missoula and Flathead counties are having significant outbreaks as well. At this point only 1 St. Ignatius High School student has tested positive. While this student did not attend school once the cough started, we are sending notices home with all students to educate families on the illness. If children who have been attending school with a cough illness test positive for Pertussis, we will take steps to notify parents of students who were exposed to the illness. In the event of a disease outbreak, children that are not up-to-date with required immunizations may be excluded from school by the local health officer or the Department of Public Health and Human Services until the student is no longer at risk for contracting or transmitting that disease.
Pertussis is an infection that affects the airways, and it can easily spread from person to person by coughing or sneezing. Pertussis can cause a severe cough that lasts for weeks or months, sometimes leading to coughing fits and/or vomiting. Anyone can get pertussis, but it can be very dangerous for babies and people with weakened immune systems. Family members with pertussis, especially siblings and parents, can spread pertussis to babies.
Recommendations:
1.If your child has a cough:
Keep your child home from school and activities, such as sports or play groups. Make an
appointment with your child’s doctor as soon as possible and tell the doctor that your child may
have been exposed to pertussis.
2.If your child has been diagnosed with pertussis by his or her doctor:
Tell the school that a doctor diagnosed your child with pertussis.
Keep your child home from school and activities, such as sports or play groups, until your child
has been on antibiotics for five days to treat pertussis.
Ask your child’s doctor for a note that states your child has pertussis.
3.If your child’s doctor says your child does NOT have pertussis:
Ask for a note from the doctor telling the school that your child’s cough is NOT pertussis and that your child can return to school and other activities at any time.
Please feel free to call the Lake County Health Department at 406-883-7288 with questions or concerns and ask for the communicable disease nurse.
Sincerely,
Leigh Estvold, RN

NO SCHOOL ON Monday : Due to winter storm and possible blizzard conditions expected, school is cancelled for Monday February 6th at St Ignatius. Unnecessary travel only puts students, parents and staff at risk. Weather permitting, school will resume on Tuesday.
We here at the St. Ignatius Fitness Center would be thrilled if the schools would participate in the annual Walking The Rez. Mrs. Cordier’s 3rd grade class participates yearly, which we appreciate. We would love more participation from more classes. The end result is a one of a kind t-shirt, and a certificate for participation, plus the satisfaction of completing the boundary of the Reservation figuratively. I have included the map of the boundary, a flyer of brief information on start and end date. Pedometers are available for any other classes that wish to participate. Contact person for the St. Ignatius area is Arles Hendrickson, I have included her in the email so you can email her with all of the weekly reports for the miles you have completed. Families are encouraged to participate. Call her at 745-4242.
It is our hope that we can make a difference in our youth’s lives one step at a time.
Thank you,
