    Beaverhead County school struggles to stay open as feds withhold tax payments (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Lima resident and Sophomore Kiersten Bernard remembers hearing conversations about her school’s uncertain future back in sixth grade. "It honestly broke my heart. You know, I have very deep roots here, and so it made me pretty upset," she says. Beaverhead County is the largest in the state, but only about 10,000 people live here. Two-thirds of it is also made up of public lands. That can make it hard for the county to collect enough taxes to fund the school. The federal government does pay the c

"We start and stop our day in Martinsdale," Eagleton says. "Our first day goes through Bozeman, Big Timber, and then back up. So we kind of do a big circle through here.

    Read excerpt

    Researchers at the University of Montana identified a unique mouse that may hold some clues for cancer research. This Andean mouse’s high-elevation home is what attracted researchers. When University of Montana researchers learned about a species mouse scuttling through the Andes mountains at extreme elevations, it piqued their interest. "We wanted to know how the heck they actually lived up there," says Schulyer Liphardt, one of the researchers. Mammals don’t live above 19,000 feet, because the

    Flathead Lake Biostation Director Jim Elser says when they started to look for PFAS at sites in the area he was hoping for the best. "My hope was that we wouldn't find anything, that we won't detect anything, really. And then we could say, ‘okay, we don't have to worry about that so much around here.
