Plevna School warmly welcomes new teachers
Cele Menees
By Shannon Johnson
Plevna Public School is adding a new Ag teacher to their crew. Cele Menees will be heading the program for the 2019-2020 school year. Menees grew up between Baker and Ekalaka and attended school in Ekalaka, where she graduated in 2011. In high school, she liked to keep busy participating in FFA, FCCLA, 4-H, Science Olympics, the math team, Honor Society, C-Club, basketball, volleyball, choir, and band.
After graduating, Menees moved to Stillwater, OK to attend Oklahoma State University. Initially she planned on majoring in ag and minoring in music, so she wanted to find a college that had strong programs for both. “They gave me really great scholarships to attend and it just felt right when I went and visited,” she added. “It worked out well.” Menees admitted that having a father (Bruce Ketchum) who taught ag for several years while she was younger was part of what sparked her interest in teaching ag amongst other reasons. “My biggest thing was that I just wanted to help people and I thought I wanted to be a teacher,” she explained. “I have a passion for agriculture. I grew up with it and grew up on a ranch so it just all kind of fit together.” Being a teacher’s aid during her junior and senior years of high school confirmed her notion that teaching was what she wanted to do for her career. Before graduating in 2014, Menees met her husband, Jeff, who she was in several classes with. Menees had finished her
major in ag, but despite her love of music and her ability to sing and play various instruments including the piano, alto and tenor saxophone, trombone, baritone, flute, and bass guitar she decided to graduate early and not complete her minor in music. “It would have taken me another two or three semesters,” said Menees. After graduating, Menees moved to the town of Indiahoma, OK where she taught for three years. “I enjoyed it,” she said. “I kind of had to rebuild the program, so that was a challenge, but it was very rewarding once we got to about the third year.” Although Menees enjoyed her time in Oklahoma she wanted a change. “I wanted to move closer to home,” she acknowledged. She and her husband moved to Glasgow, MT in October where she substitute taught. This summer upon hearing that Plevna Public Schools needed an ag teacher, Menees eagerly applied. “It’s going to be a lot of fun,” she smiled. “I’m positive that this is probably where we’ll be for quite some time.”

Maria McSorley Plevna Public School is welcoming a new 6th-12th grade Social Studies teacher, Maria McSorley. McSorley was raised in Morris, MN, a town in the northwestern corner of the state. In high school she participated in Girl Scouts, 4-H, and worked as a dietary aid in a nursing home. Along with that, McSorley had a love for
helping others and committed much of her free time to doing just that. “I primarily did community service projects,” she explained. After graduating in 2010 from Morris High School McSorley went on to begin college at Fergus Falls Community College where she worked on her generals and studied social studies. Along with obtaining her degree, she also continued working in nursing homes throughout college. In 2012 while attending FFCC she met her husband, Jeff. “We met through some mutual friends,” said McSorley. “They set us up on a blind date.” She and Jeff moved to Moorhead, MN after she transferred to the teaching program at Moorhead State University. “Some of the best memories I have with my family are sitting around talking about history and politics,” McSorley mentioned. “I also wanted to be a mentor to young people.” She grad-
uated in 2016 with a bachelor’s degree in social studies and a minor in Special Education. Since graduation McSorley has had some teaching experience as a substitute teacher in the Moorhead District, spending a great deal of time in their Alternative Schools. She has also worked at a juvenile detention center in Moorhead for the past two summers. Along with that, she was also the School-Aged site assistant for a YMCA After School Program. “This will be my first full-time year,” she acknowledged. McSorley is getting settled in to both her new classroom and her new community, but she is glad to be in a smaller school where she can get to know all of the students and work with all different age groups. “It’s good to get away from the hustle and bustle,” she smiled. “We’re excited to be here and we’re looking forward to meeting everyone in the community.”
Heart River hires new volleyball coach
By Jake Wright
Courtesy of Dickinson Press Kylie Hadley is the new volleyball coach at Heart River. Kylie Hadley has been preparing her whole life to be a volleyball coach, and she will get the opportunity to be one before she even finishes her undergraduate degree at Dickinson State University. Hadley has been hired as the new volleyball coach at Heart River. Hadley played two years of volleyball at Rocky Mountain College in Billings, MT, before transferring for her final two seasons to Dickinson State. She will graduate from Dickinson State in the spring of 2020 with her Bachelors Degree. “I am excited to build relationships with the students and athletes, said Hadley. “I want to apply the knowledge
I have learned in school to real life situations.” The sport is something that has been instilled in her since a very young age. Hadley grew up always in a gym as her mom has been the volleyball coach in Baker, MT, at Baker High School for two decades. The chance to start her profession was something she could not pass up. Hadley wants to not only teach her players a lot of skills about the sport, but also life lessons. She wants her players to come to her for advice on volleyball and off the court things as the players go through a learning time of their life. “I want my players to have an open mind with a new coach,” said Hadley. “I want to be able to teach them volleyball skills, because volley-
ball is a skill based sport. I will have to break everything down for them to help them learn. I enjoy breaking things down and teaching, and this will help me be a better teacher and coach. Another thing is, I also want to teach my players life lessons.” The Cougars volleyball squad will begin their quest on Aug. 19, with their first practice. They will compete in their first tournament under Hadley’s direction almost two weeks later on Aug. 31, in Killdeer.

Father Thomas Tobin recognized as “Montanan of the Week” by Senator Daines form on Daines’ website. The following is a statement submitted to the Congressional Record: Mr. Daines. Mr. President, this week I have the honor of recognizing Father Thomas Tobin, of Carter County, for his leadership in the church and devotion to serving the faithful of Montana. Father Tobin was ordained in a small church in Tipperary, Ireland, in June of 1959, shortly after, he made the trek to Montana in September of 1959. During his 38 years of service, he ministered across Big Sky Country, including in Billings, Hilger, Livingston, Big Sandy,
Baker and Ekalaka. As a member of the Knights of Columbus, Father Tobin has been active in promoting Christian values from his local parish to the broader community. Father Tobin has been a strong defender of the Pro-Life movement - regularly defending the rights of the unborn from the pulpit. He has participated in a handful of Right to Life Marches, and has routinely promoted ProLife activities. During the days leading up to the 9/11 attacks, Father Tobin was in New York City visiting parishes. When the attacks unfold-

ed, Father Tobin delayed his return home to Montana, to pray and minister to the people of New York City. In addition to his devout faith and commitment to others, Father Tobin has a profound love for our great outdoors. Those who know him best say he can often be found at a local dam or lake with a fishing pole. He also enjoys long drives in the country and taking long walks and hikes. I am proud to honor Father Tobin as this week’s Montanan of the week. His devotion to his Catholic faith and his community is exemplary of the Montana spirit.

A funeral service for Frieda Straub, 87, of Baker, was held Aug. 3, 2019 at First Baptist Church in Baker with Pastor Levi Durfey officiating. Frieda passed away July 30, 2019 at Fallon Medical Complex. Frieda was born at home on Jan. 3, 1932, the daughter of John and Elizabeth (Naasz) Lang. She grew up and attended Fertile Prairie School. Frieda married Herbert Straub on June 29, 1952 in Plevna, MT. The couple farmed and ranched south of Baker. They were blessed with three children, Brenda, Paula and Terry. Frieda was a devoted farmwife and mother and she did housekeeping and painting. She enjoyed baking cookies for friends, neighbors, and those who helped her. She especially enjoyed baking cookies for the grandkids at Christmas time and watching them exchange them because Grandma couldn’t remember who liked which kind. Frieda also liked to spend her time crocheting, reading and visiting with friends. Spending time with her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren was especially important to Frieda. Frieda volunteered her time and talent at her church as a Sunday school teacher, deaconess and a member of the church choir and special music. She was a member of First Baptist Church in Baker. Frieda is survived by her children, Brenda (Dale) Schweigert, Paula (Ron) Haar and Terry (Anna) Straub all of Baker; seven grandchildren, Jon (Nikki Werkele) Schweigert, Justin (Jen) Haar, Jana Schweigert, Katie Straub, Jason (Carrie) Haar, Lane (Kayleigh) Straub, and Aaron (Britney) Straub; great-grandchildren, Britanie, Chloe, Liam, Bristol, Easton, Mazie, Bree, Haddie, Kelton, Briar, and Leo; brother Manuel Lang of Phoenix, AZ; sister, Lydia Bales of Yakima, WA.

Legal Tip of the Week Did you know … much your landlord may raise your rent? The law in Montana does not limit the amount your landlord may charge you for rent. There is no rent control in Montana. The landlord can raise your rent any amount. This is true whether you’re renting an apartment, house, mobile home or mobile home lot. But, the landlord cannot raise your rent until after your lease is up and must give you notice. To learn more, read our brand-new article “When Your Landlord Can Raise Your Rent in Montana (FAQ)” on www.MontanaLawHelp.org. If you can’t find what you’re looking for, try our smart search bar.

HADLEY
FROM PAGE 1
Being a student-athlete helped prepare Hadley for the job of multitasking in coaching and still going to school. She realized through her experiences how much work you have to put into both to be successful on the court and in the classroom. In her first year at the helm of Heart River’s volleyball program, she will have high expectations for her team on the court, but she will have even loftier expectations on herself to help her players learn and grow.
