Welcome to the Friends of Big Sky Education (FOBSE) Website!
Our Purpose
Friends of Big Sky Education is a non-profit school foundation formed in 2005, dedicated to ensuring that all Big Sky students enjoy an exceptional educational experience. Our first and biggest project so far was facilitating the opening of a locally-governed high school in Big Sky. Lone Peak High School opened its doors in August 2009. We are now engaged in a number of long-term projects that support the Ophir School District.
Warren Miller Performing Arts Center:
Projected to open in the fall of 2012, the Warren Miller Performing Arts Center is designed to serve the school and the community with its superb sightlines and superior acoustics for choral and instrumental presentations and speeches. A mini-concert hall, this performance space will feature a 1,435 square foot stage/classroom and 300 cushioned stadium seats set on risers. This will be a fine environment for music, dance, and theater performances as well as special events, community meetings, presentations, and lectures.
The Warren Miller Performing Arts Center will cost approximately $1.3 million. It will be erected totally through donations. Community involvement and corporate giving are crucial to the success of this project. For more information about tax-deductible donations, click on the How Can I Contribute button.

Big Horn Quarterback Club:
The Big Horn Quarterback Club is part of the Lone Peak High School Booster Club. FOBSE is acting as fiscal agent to support a six-man
football program. The Quarterback Club offers opportunities for
members to interact with the coaching staff and outside speakers. Members enjoy free entrance to games for the first and
second seasons.

Artists/Musicians-in-Residence:
The Artists and Musicians-in-Residence program is funded by both the Ophir School Council (parent and teacher group) and Friends of Big Sky Education.
Talented community members enhance Ophir/LPHS programs by lending their gifts and talents to students and teachers.
