News from Jeff Platt POLSON — A handful of girls at Polson High School have started a brand-new dance club to promote school spirit and support student-athletes through halftime performances.

So, they’ve started a GoFundMe asking the community to support their efforts. To view the GoFundMe, please visit: https://gf.me/v/c/4xl5/help-support-the-new-phs-dance-team
