Please come join us as we open our doors for a community tour of our newly remodeled school! The Children's Museum of the Magic Valley will be here with STEAM activities for the students and families and neighbors are welcome to take a look at all of our amazing updates.

Our fall reading assessments begin on Tuesday! Please help your child get a good night's sleep, eat a healthy breakfast, and PLEASE encourage them to do their very best! This assessment will have some questions that are easy and some that are more challenging. This helps us determine where they are growing as a reader.

Please watch for packets to come home for orders. Dorian will be taking our photographs again this year.

Thanks for your patience as we work on our new exit bells. Here is an update:

Afternoon Schedule - A few changes to the order of exit

City Emergency Services are asking us to be vigilant in not blocking fire lanes or access to the schools especially at the end of the day. They want to ensure they can always respond to emergencies quickly. We will be getting some of our fire lane on Fillmore repainted, but for reference, it runs from the crosswalk by our front ramp to the entrance to the parking near 6th. Thank you also for helping us keep the bus lanes open and accessible.
