Wishlist for Santa's Workshop
The elves have started preparing for Santa's Workshop, a LaMotte tradition where students get to shop for gifts for their family and pets right before winter break. We have a wishlist of items that you may have either extra of or are happy to part with. If you have any items to donate, please bring them to the front office before Dec. 1. We'll also send a volunteer invite for all parents to participate in this fun event. Thank you!

County Child Care Survey
Your opinion matters! The CHILD Task Force in collaboration with Child Care Connections is developing a strategic plan for child care in Gallatin County.
The overall goal is to achieve accessible, affordable, and thriving child care throughout the area. A critical part of the strategic planning process is obtaining input from community members.

LaMotte Strategic Plan Survey
If you haven't already done so, please complete the LaMotte Strategic Plan Survey. Our school district is starting the process of upgrading our strategic plan which will pave the way to the future of our school! The Montana Office of Public Instruction has created a survey that small districts like ours can use to help us get started. The survey takes about 10 minutes to complete. It will save your spot if you have to leave and come back to it. This survey is for everyone so please do not hesitate to share it.
The link to the survey is located here.
