"The Boise School District has community schools where we have certified food banks and clothing closets. We offer classes to parents and members of the community for things like personal finance and parenting so that we can better educate the whole student and the whole family. And that genuinely helps our entire community." - Ms. Thurston, an economics & government teacher at Frank Church High School
"My favorite part of school is writing. I'm actually doing an informational piece–which is my favorite type of writing–on the Great Barrier Reef right now and I really the research process -- it's really fun." - Kamari, a 5th grader at Adams Elementary
"I love my tech class because I enjoy building stuff and coding. Right now, we're building robots and I find that very fun and challenging. The class has inspired me and showed me how to do new things. When I grow up, I want to be an electrical engineer or tech builder to help the world." - Rylan, a 9th grader at East Junior High
Important Bus Transportation Information
Boise School District's school bus provider, Durham Transportation Services, would like to remind parents/guardians to download the Durham Bus Tracker app to receive late bus notifications and to be able to track the location of your student's school bus.

Winter Weather Procedures
Education is important and every missed day of school represents lost learning opportunities. However, Boise School District’s primary concern is for the safety of all students, including students riding busses and walking or biking to school. If students cannot safely travel to school or if schools are not able to operate safely because of citywide dangerous weather conditions, school may be cancelled. Watch the following video to learn more about Boise School District's Inclement Weather Procedures.
