It has been an exci�ng start to the 2019-20 school year. We had a wonderful opener as we welcomed new and returning staff at the Annual Trustee Kickoff on August 26. We recognized staff for years of service, two of which, Mardele Toth and Russ Earl, have been working for Havre Public Schools for 40 years. That is a combined 80 years and a very large number of children these two have had the opportunity to work with during that �me. We announced our Teacher of the Year, Terra Vogel and our Classified Employee of the Year, Andy Bradshaw. It was very rewarding to watch these two receive these honors in front of their peers.

Pre-registra�on is required for all classes. Payment is due with registra�on. Refer to page 2 for refund and cancella�on policy.

This 2019 August Ins�tute for our professional staff was fantas�c. The caliber of workshops put together by the professional development commi�ee are as always so impressive. The Google workshops put on by our own staff was definitely a highlight for me personally. There are some very talented individuals working with the children in the Havre School District. Dr. Jay Berk shared many strategies and facilitated great discussion during his two days at Havre High School. Eliza Sorte was as always a tremendous hit among our staff. The August Ins�tute is a shining example for professional development and I believe one of the best across our state. The folks involved in the planning and organiza�on should take a great deal of pride in the product they bring to Havre each year. It was also quite special to have a number of community members join us for one of our sessions on Local History. Mr. Magera gave a presenta�on in the Havre High School Theater that was beyond amazing. I know this was a highlight of this year’s offering for many of our folks. I greatly appreciate the vision of our trustees and community. I con�nue to see daily reminders of just how fortunate I am to live in this community and work for such an excep�onal school district. Thank you and my best wishes to all of our students and staff that 2019 – 2020 will be the most outstanding school year they will experience. Welcome back and Go Blue Ponies!
