I huge Thank You to Todd Opp and Kristine Hubbard from Glendive Medical Center for allowing some of our employees come to one of their beginning Lean Six Sigma Trainings.
We really appreciate your willingness to help us get better with our mindset around waste and being more effective and efficient in what we do.
If you haven't heard or seen what GMC is doing with their Lean Six Sigma program, you need to check it out! Awesome!

Mrs. Schaaf's 4th grade class assignment:
Her students were put into groups of two and had to create a Christmas Ornament that represents Glendive. They needed to have the name of the city, an image representing the city, the year, and a phrase that captures the city.
Here are some of the ones that were done. Well Done 4th graders!

Update on WMS gym floor:
While trying to assess and resolve the initial problem which was the source of the buckled gym floor, it was determined that the quantity of leaking pipes was greater than originally believed. Due to the condition of the pipes and, to ensure the restoration is properly completed, we have been working with; our insurance company, two restoration companies, two plumbers, and two flooring companies.
Upon assessing the extent of the damage, additional leaks were discovered around the gym area as well as the identification yesterday (12/5) of mold in the boy’s restroom (foyer of the gym). Precautions were immediately taken to quarantine the gym foyer and restroom area until a mitigation specialist can further assess the situation.
Our goal is to immediately and properly rectify these issues so as to resume normal activities at WMS as soon as possible.
As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please contact Mark Goyette (WMS Principal) at 377-3288 or Stephen Schreibeis (GPS Superintendent) at 377-5339.

Our survey closes on Friday (Nov 29th). If you haven't taken it yet, we would love to hear from you!
Thank you to everyone who has taken the survey already!
