Welcome to the Family Connection Center website! My name is Stacy Jehle, and I am the FCC Coordinator as well as an MCPS parent.  I love working with children and their families. I have lived in Missoula for twelve years and love being outside with my family, enjoying our beautiful state!

My job duties include assistance to secure basic resources for students/families and deepening the connections within the Rattlesnake community.  Largely, the FCC has 4 primary roles:

1.  To serve our Families in Transition (FIT).  If your family experiences multiple moves, hotel stays, couch surfing, etc. due to economic hardship during the school year, your child may be eligible to continue their attendance at Rattlesnake and busing may be provided.  Please contact the FCC immediately if you need assistance or have questions.

2.  To assist our families experiencing financial hardships.  The FCC has resources available to help address financial difficulties in order to help make your child's educational experience as comfortable as possible.

3.  To host family-oriented community building and educational events at Rattlesnake.  Watch for emails on upcoming family fun nights, parenting classes, book groups, etc.

4.  To assist the teacher/staff communities at Rattlesnake to better enhance the learning environment.  MBI interventions, assistance with special programing, and more!

How can you support the FCC?

We are so grateful for your donations. The following items are especially helpful:

Food: Peanut Butter, Macaroni and Cheese, Canned meat (tuna, chicken), Instant Oatmeal, Granola Bars, Fruit Leather

Clothes: Sweatpants, Elastic waist shorts (athletic shorts), Socks, New Underwear, Winter gear, Gym shoes
