A Message from Mrs. DeNinno

We look forward to seeing everyone this Thursday evening at our Academic Showcase Night! We have Tony's Tamales and Kona Ice joining us for refreshments. As a reminder, students with last names beginning with A-M should come between 5-6pm and those with last names beginning with N-Z should come between 6-7pm. The event is drop in style and families are encouraged to stagger their arrival time to avoid a line at the front. There is a detailed PDF attached below. See you Thursday!

Congratulations to our very own Ms. Branigan! Ms. Branigan was awarded Idaho's "2024 Emergent Conductor of the Year." This is for an outstanding choral director in their first ten years of service, awarded by the American Choral Directors Association. Her work in the classroom is a true example of excellence.

Quick Reminders:

Students who are participating in the Music Department chocolate fundraiser should only be selling off campus. This week was much smoother thanks to this change!
In addition, we have a "water only" policy inside of our classrooms. This is for a variety of reasons, both health and facilities related. Students are welcome to consume other school approved beverages in the Phoenix Room both before school and during lunch. Thank you for your support!

Middle School Student Government:

Congratulations to all students who ran for a position. It was wonderful seeing their campaigns, videos, and excitement. It was a tight race and I encourage all students to be a leader during their time in Middle School. Our Middle School Student Government is:

6th Grade Rep: August Shadle

7th Grade Rep: Angelina Cortes

8th Grade Rep: Rayna Neal

MS Vice President: Kennedy Hood

MS President: Mateo Pharis

Coffee with the Principal Date Adjusted AGAIN-

I apologize for the confusion, we are working hard to not consume weeknights and also to avoid conflicts. We are going to pivot to 10/23 at 8:00am at Flying M. See the information below.

Have a glorious week!

MS Parent Coffee with the Principal- RESCHEDULED AGAIN! :)

We unfortunately rescheduled for a date that had a conflict with another parent meeting. We are going to go completely rogue this time. The final event will be held on Wednesday, October 23rd at either Flying M in Nampa (reservation pending) or the Phoenix Room from 8:00-9:00AM.
