Robin is our school cook and makes delicious meals our students really enjoy. Having home made, hot meals is becoming increasingly rare in public school settings. Trego is lucky to have such a blessing.

Leigh Ellen comes to us from Wisconsin and is our K-1 teacher. She ran her own private school for years prior to Covid.

I've been in education for many years, over 30, and after COVID, I decided I needed a break from teaching.  I then went into the medical field and worked at a clinic facility as a front desk associate and also as a concierge for 3 different providers.  I loved my job, and would still be there, but my husband and I moved up to Eureka to get out of the Flathead Valley but still be close to the beauty of this area.  After moving to Eureka I got a job working at another medical company and worked as a dispatcher for a mobile imaging company.  Also enjoyed this job too, but decided after a year to pursue other opportunities.  Wasn't sure what I was going to do, but here I am, back to teaching again.  Being back in the classroom has brought me happiness and I enjoy working with the kids again.   

 I am originally from Jacksonville, Florida, but have spent most of my life in Georgia.  I graduated from Valdosta State College in 1973 and began a long and satisfying teaching career.  I married Bob Sutton in 1972 and we had one son, Scotty, who has blessed me with 7 grandchildren!  I taught for 52 years in Georgia and then retired and moved to Montana with  Scotty, his wife Sarah,  and my two youngest grandchildren, Liam and Finley.  I was blessed when the part time job came available at Trego teaching math.  I teach 4th through 8th grade math which is a big change for me since I have been teaching  Calculus and Trigonometry to Juniors and Seniors for many years.  I love the students at Trego and working with the dedicated teachers and staff. 

Mr. Adcock teaches Physical Education twice a week to grades K-8.

Sam is our Science and Art Teacher. In addition to having a Masters of Business Administration, Sam is a licensed 5-12 science teacher. Sam loves hands on science, something frequently missing in many classrooms, but with our small size, that piece is far easier to implement.

Michelle is our Site Coordinator and responsible for all staff training, grant implementation, and a whole long list of other responsibilities. She holds a BA in Early Childhood Education, an MA in Communication in Education and moonlights teaching Early Childhood Education online at her Alma Mater. Michelle is a huge advocate in the field of Early Childhood Education and believes parents are a child's first and most important teacher, it is up to schools to support that!

Karmen is our District Clerk and responsible for making sure the lights stay on, along with a very long list of other duties. Karmen is our go-to for all things financial and organizational.
