✨ Cultural Exchange Highlight! 🇵🇭🇺🇸
Today marks Mr. Pagawisan’s first culture exchange activity of the school year, and it was a meaningful celebration of learning, diversity, and global connection!
In line with the Thanksgiving celebration here in the USA, Mr. Pagawisan showcased a variety of vibrant Philippine festivities, sharing stories behind beloved traditions such as Sinulog, Panagbenga, Pahiyas, and more. His presentation brought color and culture to the classroom—made even more authentic by his wearing of a Barong Tagalog, the national formal attire of the Philippines.
We are proud to have Mr. Pagawisan as one of the district’s dedicated culture-exchange teachers. Now in his second year teaching High School Science, he continues to enrich students’ perspectives by connecting lessons to real-world cultures and global experiences.
Here’s to more opportunities for learning, celebrating diversity, and building understanding across cultures! 🌍✨

DCHS Activities and Events December 1-6
What a night! Honor Band & Honor Choir shine at DCHS!
Last night's Honor Band and Honor Choir concert was nothing short of spectacular! After two full days of focused rehearsals, students from Glendive, Sidney, Savage, Fairview, Circle, Wibaux, Terry, Baker, and Richey came together to deliver a performance that showcased their hard work and talent.
With the guidance of our dedicated guest conductors—who traveled a long way to work with these young musicians—each ensemble transformed into a cohesive, powerful group capable of creating a sound far beyond what any individual school could produce alone.
A huge thank-you to the students, directors, families, and community members who made this event possible and filled the auditorium with support. Nights like this remind us why music education matters—and why collaboration can create something unforgettable.

Honor Band and Honor Choir have been working hard at DCHS yesterday and today. They include students from Glendive, Sidney, Savage, Fairview, Circle, Wibaux, Terry, Baker, and Richey. Guest conductors have come a long way to work with them and turn them into strong, cohesive performing groups. They spend time in their own classes preparing beforehand, then rehearse together for two days. It's all worth it when they put on a spectacular concert unlike anything that any individual band or choir in attendance could do. The concert is tonight at 6pm and there is an admission charge.

The DCHS Forensics team took a smaller squad of 10 to compete in Plentywood on November 15. It was a more laid back day with fewer schools in attendance. Dawson was 3rd in both Speech and Drama sweeps out of the 3 Class A Schools, which is what we expected with such a small group, but there were great things happening nonetheless. Here are the individual results:
David Kingstad: 11th in Humorous Solo (trying out a brand new piece)
Ora Neves: 3rd in Dramatic Solo
Jace Gabbert & Harry Cook: 4th in Humorous Theatre
Eli Olmstead: 4th in Dramatic Oral Interpretation
Emma Hynes: 7th in Informative Speaking
Aubrey Carter: 4th in Informative Speaking
Jack Carter & Quinn Sargent: 2nd in Public Forum Debate
Kamri Nelson: 1st in Program Oral Interpretation
Forensics will take a couple of weeks off before venturing to Wolf Point on December 5th. Then, we'll have some extreme competition in East Helena on December 13th and again in Laurel on January 10th. The home Dawson meet will be January 17th and we'll be looking for volunteer judges from the community and surrounding area. Please email Coach Sonja Tuma at tumas@glendiveschools.org for information if you're interested in judging. I'll send you training videos!
