Welcome to Bigfork High School

Portrait of a Learner

Portrait of a learner is a school wide vision that illustrates which specific skills and attributes we must prepare students with in order for them to be successful post-graduation. With thoughtful implementation in our classrooms, we aim to increase student competency in the categories of leadership, collaboration, mindful learning, global citizenship, and solution seeking. Together, these attributes will equip each student with the tools needed to be successful lifelong learners, prepared for their individual lives outside of our school walls.  

Bigfork Schools has joined the Battle of the Belts – a Flathead County Health Department initiative for increased seatbelt use. Our high school students in the National Honor Society and Student Council are leading the charge and planning different activities to raise awareness about the importance of seatbelt use.

The students conducted an initial survey on seatbelt use, and the numbers show there is room for improvement: 45% of our students did not wear their seatbelts during their morning drive to school (based on a ticket counter). A follow-up survey was conducted in late spring and showed a great improvement: The most recent survey showed that 87% of our students are wearing their seatbelts!

More activities will follow, including more surveys in the 2024-2025 school year. 

So Buckle Up Bigfork and stay safe out there!
