A reminder that Friday, 5/17/2024, we will have a modified schedule and will be releasing students at 3:30pm rather than the normal 2:30pm.

Due to the recent weather and the poor field conditions in Lewistown, the District 8C track meet scheduled for Friday, May 10th has been moved to Saturday, May 11th, at Memorial Stadium in Great Falls. The 8C will join the 1B and 10C at the meet. Schedules will be sent out once they are finalized.

Belt School will be in session tomorrow, May 9. All school activities will resume as normal unless it is otherwise communicated to parents and students from coaches, advisors, or teachers. As previously scheduled, there will be no school on Friday, May 10. However, due to the snow days taken this year we will need to make up instructional hours to meet the State requirement for the year. To meet the minimum required hours we will extend two early-release days into full school days: Friday, May 17, we will have a 3:30pm release rather than the normal Friday 2:30pm release. The last day of the school year, May 23, we will release at 3:30pm rather than the scheduled 12:31pm release. We apologize for any inconvenience, however we felt this was the least disruptive way to make up the necessary hours. If you have questions please feel free to reach out to the school office. Thank you.
