Flint Creek Titans Co-op County Meeting
Greetings students, parents, business owners and school stakeholders,
Drummond High School and Philipsburg High School will be holding an open county meeting next Wednesday, December 7th at Drummond High Schools business/board classroom at 6:30PM in order to give transparent information to all stakeholders in both communities about a potential elimination of our Titan co-op.
First, we are looking to understand the impact this would have on our school districts and communities. Second, we are looking for factual information for enrollment numbers and athletic participation moving forward to bring to MHSA attention. Finally, we want to offer open public meeting to the stakeholders of our communities and MHSA so everyone can fully understand the gravity and scope of this potential decision.
We want this partnership to continue and hope you can attend this meeting to help find solutions.
Go Titans!

MHSA contacted Superintendent Phillips today regarding the hearing that was scheduled for tomorrow at 1:45PM.
"Director Michelotti and myself have had multiple conversations about this situation over the past few days which have been very helpful. He and I have both agreed to strike the Flint Creek Coop from tomorrow's agenda to help both organizations approach this in a more thoughtful way. We (Flint Creek Coop Board) will be discussing the next steps in the very near future. Upon receipt of the coop renewal application, Mr. Michelotti will review the information presented. At that time he will either approve the application, or deny the renewal of the coop. If he chooses to deny that application, we will have an appeal hearing on Jan. 14th in Missoula for a final decision.
I want to stress that the MHSA has been very outright with information and this process. We had a lengthy conversation about the concerns we have as adjoined communities, our projected numbers, and the importance for both schools communities to keep this coop intact. I truly believe he listened and heard those concerns. I also want to thank the Flint Creek Courier for covering this in an informative manner. MHSA did reference the multitude of emails and phone calls that they received in support of this coop. Thank you to all who support and stand for this cooperative that provides opportunities for our kids, on and off the field."
