SUPPORTING SCHOOLS

The Trout Creek School graciously received $1,700 from the Montana Masonic Foundation (MMF) Educational Grant Program last week. The school will use the funds to acquire $700 worth of library books and $1,000 in musical instruments, stated Debbie Phillips, Trout Creek School Principal. Pictured are music teacher Taylor Etienne (left) and school librarian Stephanie Wortley (right). John Heston of the MMF presented the check. The MMF grant program provides financial support for under-funded public-school programs such as the arts, drama, library operations, music and science. They are a charitable, nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization that accepted grant requests up to $3,000 for the 2019-2020 school year.
