Welcome Back to another School Year
The start of the school year is just around the
bend and I’m looking forward to the 20162017 school year.
Middle School Fall Sports Meeting - August
31st (same night as Open House) 6:00 in the
New Gym.
Following is information you might find
helpful:
Changes in the Middle School this year:
Open House - August 31st
6:00-8:00
PM Please come! This is an opportunity to
pick up middle school student schedules, pay
middle school or high school fees (lunch, activity, class, yearbook, pick up a lock-no
charge), and most importantly meet your
child’s teachers. High school schedules are
posted online through Family Link. Paper
schedules are available upon request the night
of Open House.
Middle School students needing additional
help in math will be assigned to a Math
Lab. Students will attend the math lab during
PE or Elective classes two to three periods a
week. Parents will be made prior to scheduling
students.
New high school as well as new seventh and
eighth grade students and parents will have an
opportunity to attend an orientation during
Open House. Incoming sixth grade students
and parents may attend an orientation presented by the sixth grade teachers during Open
House. Locations and times will be included
in a School Messenger phone contact before
August 31st.
Eighth grade Academic Extension class will
no longer be a study skills class. In fact, the
name of the class has changed to
STEAM. STEAM is an educational approach
to learning that uses Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts and Mathematics as access
points for guiding student inquiry, dialogue,
and critical thinking. This will be a graded
project based class. Since the change occurred
over the summer after eighth grade students
submitted their elective choice last spring, students wishing to make a schedule change to
band or choir, may make that request through
the Middle School Office.
Family Link: This is a handy way of tracking
your child’s academic progress, check attendance records, etc. through our school website. If you do not have the access info for
your child, please contact the High School or
Middle School Office.
New teachers  Mr. Greg Chambers - Elementary/Middle
School Art
 Mrs. Amy Miller - Middle School Teacher
 Mr. Scott Marsh - Middle School/High
School Math/ 7-12 Activities Director
Middle School supply lists are online at the
school website. Click on Middle School and
then click General Middle School Information.
Miscellaneous Information:
High School classes will continue to be on a
block schedule and Middle School will
continue to follow an eight period day
schedule.
High School 8:10- 3:13
Middle School 8:10-3:22
Middle School and High School Picture Day is
September 15th in the morning.
The student insurance application will be available online within the next few days.
I’m looking forward to getting reacquainted
with students and parents after being out on
summer break. It will be good to see everyone
again and will be good to meet new students. This year I hope to continue to provide
encouragement and support to the students,
parents, and teachers as we all work together
toward the common goal of providing the optimum education for Florence high school and
middle school students. At Florence, we will
dare students to be the best they can be, encourage positive risks while having fun, and
challenge them academically to achieve their
greatest potential. I believe that the middle
school and high school years are a thrilling
time for all involved. Please feel free to email
me or stop by for a visit. I am pleased to be a
part of the Florence-Carlton school family.
Thank you,

Since 2010, Mrs. Bolton’s and Mrs. Beierle’s kindergarten students
have been bird banding in our Outdoor Classroom with David Lockman from the USFS. Students learn how researchers catch the birds in
a mist net, and store them safely in a cloth bag until they are observed,
measured, and banded. David shares interesting bird facts about brood
patches, feather release, skull development for age identification and
wear on wing feather tips, all while holding the birds in his hand. Students are allowed to release the birds with gentle hands and a little bit
of bravery. Those woodpeckers and chickadees love to peck your fingers! This year we enjoyed a western wood peewee, a downy woodpecker, chickadees, a chipping sparrow and a red-breasted nuthatch.
The Florence-Carlton parents, school and community will provide a safe, respectful environment that strives to prepare all students to become responsible, lifelong learners by
empowering them with the integrity, knowledge and skills to contribute to a changing world.

Board Approves Safety Upgrades
The Florence-Carlton Board of Trustees set a goal to make improvements to the school
facilities for the safety and welfare of the students, staff, and community. Last year hand
rails were installed on the new gym bleachers and sidewalks were repaired to prevent trip
hazards. This summer the board approved the installation of new bleachers on the football
field that would meet safety codes and be handicap accessible. The old bleachers were dangerous and more than one person had been injured in the last year. The new bleachers will
have hand rails in the aisles and a sidewalk from the field entrance that goes all the way
across the front of the bleachers. The labor for the sidewalk and dirt work was donated by
Duane Zeiler, Luke Zeiler, and the crew from One Horse Construction, along with help
from Will Zeiler, Rick Bailey, Jewel Zeiler, Jacob Scully, Drew Scully, and Russell
Guenther. Dennis Burns put in many hours doing the demolition work on the old bleachers.
The Board of Trustees also approved the repair of the old gym ceiling that has the backing
of the insulation falling off. This has been a problem for years and it is where our students
eat their lunch every day. Innovative Insulation Systems from Victor will be doing the
work. They will add more insulation to the ceiling using a blanket system. Usually projects
are done at the end school year with monies left over but the board wanted to be proactive
on this project and get it done right away. Rich Jessop rearranged his crew’s schedules to
give our project top priority.
The new boiler system is being installed after almost two years of delays due to costs and
securing enough funds to cover them. This new system should serve the district for many
years and cut down on the annual costs for heating.
As part of the District’s Strategic Plan we will continue to improve our facilities to provide
the best possible facilities for the students, staff, and community.

General Information
Graduation Matters Montana
Coming next fall….. Florence-Carlton is launching its own Graduation Matters
What is Graduation Matters Montana?
Superintendent Juneau launched a statewide effort in the spring of 2010 to ensure Montana's public schools
graduate more students prepared for college and careers.
Objectives of Graduation Matters Montana:
Increase the rate of Montana students graduating from high school college- and career-ready.
Establish a support network between schools, businesses and community organizations for student success.
Create school-based and community-based opportunities for student success.
I Pledge to Graduate Campaign
Research shows that students are more likely to reach a goal if they identify their own motivations when committing to meet it. Superintendent Juneau, in partnership with local school districts and the Student Advisory Board, launched an "I Pledge to
Graduate" initiative in the 2011-2012 school year. Since then, over 11,000 students have taken the pledge.
Students pledge to a significant adult that they will graduate and identify specific reasons why graduation is important to them. This high-profile
campaign focuses statewide attention on Graduation Matters Montana, engages community and business partners, involves social networking and
highlights student voices and ideas.

Annual Asbestos Notification to Parents, Students, and Employees of the Florence-Carlton School
(Required by the A sbestos-Containing Materials in Schools Rule, §§ 763.84(c) and 763.93(g)(4))
Asbestos is a naturally-occurring fibrous mineral which, until about 1980, was commonly used in building construction. Asbestos will not burn, is
an excellent insulator, has great tensile strength, is resistant to chemicals, is a nonconductor of electricity, and absorbs sound. Examples of asbestos
-containing building material (ACBM) are vinyl floor tile, sprayed-on acoustical ceiling material, pipe and boiler insulation, and roofing felt. As
ACBM deteriorates over time, or is disturbed by maintenance, renovation, or demolition activities, it may become friable, i.e., it is capable of being
reduced to powder by hand pressure. When ACBM becomes friable, asbestos fibers are released into the air. Inhalation of these airborne, microscopic asbestos fibers has been proven to cause such fatal diseases as lung cancer, mesothelioma (cancer of the lining of the lung or abdominal cavity), and asbestosis (scarring of lung tissues). Uncontrolled asbestos contamination in buildings has been, and remains, a significant environmental
and public health issue. In 1986, Congress enacted the A sbestos Hazard Emergency Response A ct (A HERA ) to require public and private, secondary and elementary schools to identify ACBM in their school buildings and take appropriate actions to control the release of asbestos fibers. In
1987, the US Environmental Protection Agency finalized a regulatory program which enforces the A HERA mandate. These regulations are incorporated within the A sbestos-Containing Materials in Schools Rule (40 C.F.R. Part 763, Subpart E).
In compliance with the A sbestos-Containing Materials in Schools Rule, the Florence-Carlton School had its school buildings inspected by an asbestos inspector, accredited by the State of Montana. During that inspection, areas of suspect ACBM were identified. The type, condition, and location of this ACBM was noted. In previous inspection, samples were taken of some or all of the suspect ACBM. Laboratory analysis of these samples confirmed the presence or absence of ACBM. Suspect ACBM not sampled and analyzed were assumed to contain asbestos. Confirmed and/or
assumed ACBM currently remain in certain locations in our school buildings. For example, there is mudded pipe joint insulation in the boiler
room, the heat exchanger room below the stage and above some of the classrooms of the high school wing. There is thermal system insulation on
some of our school’s heat exchangers. Furthermore, we have 9” X 9” vinyl tile and linoleum in many parts of the school, though much of it has
been covered by carpet. Also, cement asbestos board can be found in several places around the outside of our main building. We also have vermiculite in many of our exterior cinderblock walls and asbestos vibration collars on three air handlers in or near the old gym. The District Office has
sheetrock, taping material, joint compound and linoleum, all assumed to contain asbestos. Asbestos is assumed to be present in such building materials as cove base molding and mastic in the upper primary wing, the lower primary building, and the old high school wing. Finally, asbestos is assumed to be present in the laboratory table tops and the lab hood of the biology classroom, as well as in the ceiling tiles of the old primary wing.
Upon confirmation of the presence of ACBM, an Asbestos Management Plan was developed for each of the school buildings in the school by an
asbestos management planner, accredited by the State of Montana. The A sbestos Management Plans include a description of the measures currently being taken to ensure that the ACBM remaining in our school buildings is maintained in a condition that will not pose a threat to the health of
our students and employees. These Plans describe past response actions taken to abate ACBM, as well as response actions planned for the future.
The Asbestos Management Plans provide information on the periodic monitoring of the condition of ACBM remaining in our school buildings
through triennial reinspections, conducted by accredited asbestos inspectors, and through semiannual surveillance, conducted by trained school
maintenance staff.
A copy of the Asbestos Management Plans is available for your review in the school District Office during regular office hours. Dennis M. Burns
is the designated Asbestos Program Coordinator for the school. Please direct all inquiries regarding the Asbestos Management Plans to him at telephone 273-6751 ext. 436.
