Time for more plugging on behalf of KRTV.com; some new features that may be of interest. And don’t forget: you can get to the KRTV Community Page by simply using MyKRTV.com. Looking for something to do (besides digging a hole to the Indian Ocean)? Check out the KRTV Community Calendar. “One Class At A Time” lets local teachers submit an application for a $250 grant for their classroom. Pretty cool. Birthday coming up? Let the Morning crew know (waves...
Some of the more interesting stories over at KRTV: Great Falls teacher nabs $25,000 award: man, this is cool. The only teacher in Montana to be honored by the Milken Foundation. Wonder if there’s any $25K prizes for outstanding blogging…? Sex-offender program discussed: a delicate subject, but I added some informative links at the bottom of the article to make it more useful.

From experience, and from talking with a few other people, I...
