The school is located on the east edge of the beautiful Flathead Valley between Columbia Mountain and the Flathead River. The old building on the campus was built in 1904, making it the oldest, standing, in-use school building in the valley. In 1968 a quonset hut was built to serve as a temporary gym. A new building was added in 1984 on the north border of the campus on land donated by Orville and Joyce Baumgartner. The newest building was later enlarged with the addition of 4 classrooms. A gym, built largely by volunteer effort, was added to the east end in 2001.
Flathead High School's Mission Statement:
develop a community of engaged learners;
promote compassion, knowledge and creativity;
foster effective communication; and
encourage independent and critical thinking.
Helena Flats School is dedicated to educating the mind,
body and spirit of each child with an emphasis on student dignity, self-worth, integrity, and an appreciation for life. Our high expectations for academic achievement are balanced with a growing awareness of others. We want children to realize the importance of standing up for their own beliefs, as well as the value of quiet reflection.
We believe that connecting students to school through activities and athletics is important way to keep our students actively engaged in school. Since opening our new high school four years ago and creating a middle school from our junior high model, we have more than doubled the amount of 6-12 students involved in a wide array of extra and co-curricular activities. You may go to the individual school websites for more information on these options.
