    May 16, 2024

    The Broadus Track team – both boys and girls, achieved a number of placing ribbons at the 4C District Meet last week in Baker, and will send a large contingent of the team on to the Southern Divisional, this Thursday in Laurel.

  • Superintendent's Report

    May 16, 2024

    I have often referred to the spring graduation ceremony as our “Super Bowl.” It is the main event that transpires after thirteen years of education filled with adversity and celebration as our youth make the difficult transition to adulthood. Thirteen years is a long time considering many youth struggle to wait thirteen seconds. In a society so focused on “immediate gratification,” it is easy to lose sight of the ultimate goal. The educational and often over-looked social tribulations students experience in school help to guide them on their n...

  • April Winds Make Way For May Rains

    May 16, 2024

    Much of Eastern Montana was bathed in bountiful moisture on May 6th and 7th, as a storm covered a large portion of the area. Broadus officially received 2.62” at the courthouse.

  • Horseback Librarian

    Deanna Twedt|May 16, 2024

    Last month we learned that Lanette was able to procure the use of a typewriter thanks to the local schoolteacher who purchased one. Lanette willingly instructed the schoolteacher on how to use it in exchange for use of the typewriter. That way she started to type out the lyrics she had been recording from Mr. Fordwick’s songs. Her proposed manuscript to a publisher will be more official typewritten than by hand. Lanette also spoke of meeting Thad Clay at a dance, visiting her usuals on her routes, and getting ready for Ada’s wedding in Apr...
