We want to make you aware of an issue regarding the milk cartons served in our school cafeterias. Over the past few days, we have identified several batches of milk from our vendor deliveries that have spoiled prematurely or were delivered in compromised packaging.

Please be assured that student health and safety is our top priority.

What we are doing: We have immediately pulled the affected milk supply from all cafeteria lines. We are actively working with our distributors to investigate the cause and secure a safe, alternative supply.
Health and Safety: According to state health officials, this is a regional packaging and premature spoilage issue, and there have been no reports of illness. However, we have instructed all cafeteria staff and students to discard any milk that looks, smells, or tastes unusual.
Alternative Options: Starting immediately, we will provide alternative beverage options (such as water) during breakfast and lunch periods.

We apologize for this inconvenience and are working diligently to resolve the issue with our vendors. Thank you for your continued patience and support.

If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact us.

Thank you City of Belgrade Montana for putting out this vital information. Let's keep the students safe as we begin to start a new and exciting school year!

𝐔𝐩𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐥 𝐙𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐇𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬 🚸

With school starting Wednesday, Aug. 26, school zone hours have been updated to match student arrival and dismissal times:

🚸 𝟕:𝟒𝟓 𝐀𝐌–𝟒 𝐏𝐌

𝐏𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐞: Ridge View Elementary’s school zone remains in effect from 7:30 AM–5 PM.

Please slow down and stay alert around all of our schools. Students will be walking, biking and traveling throughout the area before and after school, so keep an eye out for kids even after you've left a designated school zone.

Thanks for helping our students get to and from school safely. Go Panthers!

--------

𝐂𝐎𝐑𝐑𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍: Our original post indicated the updated school zone hours applied only to N. Jackrabbit Ln., Spooner Rd. and Triple Crown Rd. The 7:45 AM–4 PM hours apply to school zones throughout Belgrade city limits.

Ridge View Elementary is outside city limits and is not affected by this change. Its existing school zone hours remain 7:30 AM–5 PM.

The post and graphic have been updated to reflect the correct information.
