Yesterday, the sixth graders spent a day at Lake Como for Conservation Field Day, organized by the Bitterroot Conservation District! Students rotated through 10 stations to better understand the importance of natural resources and our roles and responsibilities in managing these resources. Stations covered: agriculture and farming, fire and forest health, soil health, water quality and quantity, weeds, and wildlife and wildlife habitat.
Good morning, Route 4(East Fork and Rye Creek) will have a 2 hour delay for pick up due to the district being down available drivers. If your scheduled pick up time was 7:15am, it will be 9:15am today. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation

The Darby School District is thrilled to announce that Tanner Shavers, a sophomore at Darby High School, has been selected to participate in the United States Naval Academy Summer STEM Program. This nationally recognized program received over 4,000 applications this year, and only 330 students were selected, placing Tanner among the top young STEM scholars in the country.
The Summer STEM Program, held at the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland, immerses students in hands-on learning in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Over the course of a rigorous week-long session, participants live on campus, work alongside Naval Academy faculty and midshipmen, and engage in real-world problem-solving through cutting-edge projects such as cyber security, robotics, aerodynamics, and environmental engineering.
“Tanner’s selection is a tremendous honor and a testament to the dedication and drive he brings to his academic work,” said Tony Biesiot, Superintendent of Darby School District. “This is just another example of how Darby students are earning world-class opportunities in a small school setting. We are incredibly proud of Tanner and excited to see the impact this experience will have on his future.”
3rd grade lunch at the park!

The elementary students watched a dance performance of "Peter and The Wolf" by Dance In The Root on Wednesday! Directors Mauriana Jessop and Char Pigman brought eight dancers to the school stage for their very first production in front of a live audience. The students could ask the dancers questions after the show, and each class had the opportunity to take pictures with the performers. We hope to make this an annual event!
Join us on May 15th for the Spring Concert! The concert will be held in the High School Gym starting at 7 pm, grades TK-12th.
Our Darby Tiger Physics students recently enjoyed a well-deserved field trip to Silverwood Theme Park! This trip was a celebration of the hard work and determination these students have shown throughout the year.
Physics is one of the most challenging subjects in high school. It blends math, logic, and conceptual reasoning to explain the forces and motion that shape everything from roller coasters to planetary orbits. Students must not only master formulas and mathematical procedures but also develop the ability to visualize motions, forces, momentum, and energy in real-world contexts. We're incredibly proud of how our students have risen to the occasion, tackling these challenges with grit and curiosity!
Thank you!
Mr. Shulstad
You're invited! Join us for a community lunch on May 13th from 12 p.m. to 1 p.m. as we come together to share a meal and say thank you for your continued support of our school district!
