HARVEST UPDATE (10-5-2023). All schools will be back in session for the whole district on Monday. Due to the weather, many farmers one both ends of the district are still trying to complete the harvest and many students are still working. Students who have missed or who will miss school due to harvest on either end of the district will still be counted as being absent and count against the 8 day limit each semester; however, the absences will be tracked by the schools. Similar to COVID related absences in the past, students who may exceed the 8 day limit due to harvest work will be able to work closely with the schools and teachers to make up any missed work and will have this taken into consideration by the administration when determining the need to make up time. A form to document harvest related absences can be picked up in the office. It will need to be filled out and then signed by the employer and the student's parents/guardians. If you have questions, please contact your school.

Here is our amazing PTO parent once again. Here they are handing out awards for the hard work the students did on ISAT testing. This PTO group, all of them, have supported the school incredibly this year. We want to offer our thanks and gratitude for the great year.
South Fremont Junior High has been awarded the INL/BEA STEM Impact Grant! We submitted a plan to build a comprehensive makerspace in which students can learn to explore and build in student directed activities.
Our makerspace will create an environment for open-ended natural creativity. Our students will also be able to practice critical thinking skills, challenge their imaginations, and come up with solutions to real-world problems. Makerspaces are really helpful for STEM-related activities. More importantly, makerspaces are safe places for students to “fail.” At a time when test scores and getting the right answer often trump the process of learning, makerspaces allow students to learn by trial and error, improving with each attempt.
Some exciting features of our future makerspace include: Media production, tinkering, circuitry, programming, graphic design, 3D printing, and a growing tower for life sciences.
We are so grateful to the INL/BEA for this amazing opportunity and our ability to provide these experiences for our students.
