Technology helps instructor teach Darby, Moore students

By Michelle McConnaha, Ravalli Republic


A classroom wired to support online learning allows a Darby teacher to simultaneously teach students in Darby and in Moore. “I teach Spanish to two classes in Montana,” said Karen Perlinger, foreign language teacher at Darby High. “It is a crazy schedule, but it works to provide an opportunity for the students in Moore to learn a foreign language.” Located on U.S. Highway 191 in Fergus County, near Lewistown, Moore has a population of 193, according to the 2010 census, and a school enrollment of 38, according to the Montana Office of Public Instruction. Jennifer Burdette, principal of Darby High School, explained how the cooperative classroom came about.
