School is OPEN, power is restored 3-23-11

Mountain Home School and Glacier High School is open again in Oakhurst. Power has been restored and all scheduled classes will resume. Any further questions please call the office. Thank you.

Skiing canceled 3/21/11 and is finished for the rest of the season.

Hello Mountain Home Skiers and Snowboarders,

As you may have already guessed, skiing is canceled for tomorrow, March 21st. Badger is actually closed today due to the inability to clear the roads with heavy snow and high winds. There is a chance that Badger may be closed tomorrow so if you decide you want to ski on your own, I would check the road conditions.

Mountain Home Skiing is over for the season. If you have any money left in your account I will be refunding the balance within the next week. I want to take a moment to thank you all for a great season. If you have a chance please make sure to tell our volunteer instructors thank you, they did a great job. So once again, Skiing is canceled tomorrow and we are finished for the year. Thank you and have a wonderful day,

Eric Hagen
Charter Teacher

Lego 201 Class canceled for remainder of year

It is with great regret that Mr. Hagen will have to cancel Lego Class 201 for the remainder of the 2011 school year. Mr. Hagen has been called to serve as a juror. If you have further questions please feel free to leave him a message at school and he will return it as soon as he is able.

Create Something Fishy

There will be a T-shirt printing activity on Tues., March 8 and Thurs., March 10 for those students and parents going on the Monterey field trip. This activity will take place during the K/1 Music, Movement and More class on Tuesday and during the 2/3 Variety Class on Thursday.
For those students (and parents) who aren’t in those classes, please call Joanie @ 642-1422 #13 and we’ll set you up in a different time slot. The materials will be set up those same days from 9:00 to 3:00 Tuesday (except during K/1 MM&M) and from 2:15-3:00 on Thursday.
 What you need to bring with you: a new, white 100% cotton T-shirt and a piece of card-board to be sandwiched in your shirt so the color won’t bleed onto the back.

No skiing tomorrow March 7th, join us instead for the Ocean Assembly

Based on the weather predictions for tomorrow, we are canceling skiing for March 7th. Badger Pass is requesting that we give them 24 hour notice if we cancel so we had to make a decision today. Badger also said that if you choose to still go skiing tomorrow on your own that they would not give the group rate of $14. We do not know if they would offer you any other deal if you came up tomorrow but you might mention to them that you are with our school.

On a side note we would like to let you know that Mountain Home School is hosting an exciting ocean assembly tomorrow and we still have spots open. The most space is for the 9:30 and 11am spots. If you have further questions feel free to call the school. So once again, skiing is canceled for tomorrow but we hope to see you at the ocean assembly. Thank you and have a great evening.
