Cross Country News
Our Cross Country athletes have been training hard in the mornings before school and that training paid off. Our Trailblazers held their first meet on Sept. 30, and boy did they blaze some trails! We had a huge crowd here to cheer them as the crossed the finish line. Thank you to all of our Cross Country volunteers for showing up early to help coach and support our team.
Invent Idaho
This year we have partnered with Invent Idaho where students will be utilizing the passion for creativity to develop the innovative spirit as they identify a problem and create an invention to solve it. Projects will be worked on within the classroom. Students K-8 will be participating in Invent Idaho at our school with our school Invention Convention happening in January. To kick-off Invent Idaho, every class within our school got to do their first field work this year at Bird Aviation Museum.
A Big Thank you to the Bird Aviation Museum and Steel Structures of America
We would like to thank the Bird Aviation Museum for allowing a students to tour the museum free of charge. Our students were so excited to visit and became inspired to create their own inventions for our upcoming Invent Idaho competition!
Thank you to Steel Structures of America for donating $2000.00 towards our Cross Country Team. Their generous donation provided scholarships for cross country as well as all of the supplies needed to run our program.
