Dear Parents and Community Members,
We need your input on two important items:
1. Profile of a Graduate Survey
Per Policy 2410 P2, we're developing our school's Profile of a Graduate and want your voice in this process. Please complete this brief survey selecting the top 10 skills you believe students need to successfully graduate and thrive—whether they pursue college, trade school, or enter the workforce.

2. Montana Home Language Survey (Required)
Montana State Law requires all parents to complete this survey. Results will be kept in your student's cumulative folder. You may complete it online and email to evaldovinos@alberton.k12.mt.us, or print and return to the office.

The Alberton Robotics Club will be competing in Helena this weekend at the Montana Robotics Alliance (MTRA) Second Qualifier of the season!
Anyone can tune in to watch the nail-biting excitement as student-built robots battle it out on the competition field (no flaming balls—despite how intense it gets). Matches are expected to begin around 10:30 a.m. on Saturday, give or take about 30 minutes.
The MTRA Spectator Information page is the best place to start:
https://www.mtroboticsalliance.org/resources/spectator-info
At the top of the page, you’ll find a live stream link that allows viewers anywhere to watch online—and it’s perfect for hosting a local watch party. The page also includes helpful background on the game, a sample schedule of events, and event-specific details for those attending in person.

Update for school tomorrow, Thursday, 12/18:
If the power is still out in Alberton at 6:00am tomorrow morning, we will begin with a two-hour delay, with school beginning at 10:00am. Busses will run their regular routes on a two hour delay. If the power is not on again by 9:00am, we will cancel school for the day.
If school is on but you don't feel comfortable sending your student, this will count as an excused absence.
Due to current issues with our local cell tower, we want to ensure this information is pushed out to you as early as possible in case communication in the morning is not feasible. Please know we will work our hardest to communicate with you as quickly as possible.

Attention: Alberton School is currently without power. If your child is not at school, please keep them home. Children currently at school will remain for now--we will keep parents informed in a timely manner about the next steps as we work with the power company to understand the outage and how this will effect our remaining school day. Thank you.
