Our goal is to help students connect with each other and with adult mentors through healthy activities. If students participated in fall session, they can re-enroll for the same activity or try something new! The fees collected from Phoenix Connect go to cover staffing costs and supplies. No students will be turned away due to the inability to pay, so please mark the appropriate category for payment that fits your family's situation. We will used donations to cover the costs for families that cannot afford the fee. If you have any questions, please contact Dr. Marie McGrath at marie.mcgrath@idahoartscharter.org

WINTER SESSION STARTS NOVEMBER 27 and ENDS FEBRUARY 23

Help us help families this winter! Our Elementary Campus Food Drive kicks off this Friday! We are collecting food November 10th-November 16th, in partnership with Les Schwab, for the Idaho Food Bank. Each day we will have a theme. Each food item will be worth 1 point, but items brought to match the theme for each day will be worth 5 points. A class prize will go to the class with the most points at the end of the week. Thank you for helping our community!"
