The Havre Public Schools Board of Trustees, in a split vote, decided to follow Havre Public Schools Interim Superintendent Craig Mueller’s recommendation to stay in schedule 3A, maintaining the four-day-a-week of in-person learning model that they adopted last month. Mueller said he compiled feedback from HPS staff to see what they thought about moving to schedule 3B, which would involve students having in-person learning five days a week and received concern and dismay at the idea almost universally. He said despite the chal...

U.S. Sen.

I remember, a long time ago, when I used to have a social life. My husband, Peter, and I have been visiting his sister, Lori, once a week while she battles cancer. She was in yesterday for another radiation treatment, and we are waiting to hear if she will be feeling well enough for a visit this weekend. And so we stay home, as we have since March of last year. Lately, we have taken to picking up our groceries at the curb. I was skeptical. I’d never had another person c...
Selena Not Afraid. Ashley Heavyrunner Loring. Kaysera Stops Pretty Places. For decades in Montana, Indigenous people — mostly women, like these three — have gone missing, many times murdered and leaving behind families to search desperately for their loved ones. And many times, these families of Native people have had to go it alone, to search for their missing loved ones without the aid of authorities and with limited resources. We’re keenly aware that some of our neighbors are treated differently, invisible and left behin...

GREAT FALLS - In this year's District 9C and Northern C boys basketball tournaments, Fort Benton hopes for a repeat of 2020 when they won both of them.

If Tuesday night is any indication, a repeat in the Northern C is well within reach as they dominated Winnett-Grass Range, 72-21, at the Great Falls Four Seasons Arena. The Longhorns put the game out of reach ear...
