As a reminder, the tech department is going to cut off device repairs on Thursday, May 14th. If students need a laptop repaired after May 14th, they will need to hold on to it and turn it into the repair line at device collection. Please announce this date to students.
My name is Tamara Carter and I am honored and excited to introduce myself as the new Principal of East Minico Middle School!
Coming to East feels like coming home. I began my teaching career right here at East Minico, so returning to my roots is truly special. Throughout my career, I've had the opportunity to teach a variety of subjects and grade levels. I spent many wonderful years in special education at the Total Learning Center and East Minico, and I've also taught several subjects in 6th grade. More recently, I've served as an assistant principal at several schools, and I'm especially excited to reconnect with some of my former students who will be attending East this year!
Education has always been my passion. I earned my Master's degree in Educational Leadership and recently completed my Education Specialist (Ed.S.) degree from Boise State University. I believe learning is a lifelong journey, and I look forward to sharing that enthusiasm with our students, staff, and families.
One thing you'll quickly learn about me is that my door is always open—literally! (Although, as a parent, am I the only one constantly reminding my own kids to close the door at home. 😊)
Please don't hesitate to stop by, say hello, or introduce yourself. I look forward to getting to know each of you and partnering with you to make this an incredible year for our students.
Go Pirates💜

Today, we celebrate more than a passed levy — we celebrate the strength, generosity, and commitment of the Minidoka community.
Thank you for investing in our students, our schools, and the programs that help every child grow into a well-rounded learner. Your support helps us continue providing opportunities in athletics, safety, and academic supports as we prepare students to thrive in our global community.
From all of us at Minidoka Schools: thank you for believing in our students and supporting their future.
🎉 We’re excited to celebrate the hard work and success of our Minidoka School District students and staff!
Minico High School surpassed Idaho state averages in ELA and Math, and schools across our district showed impressive score improvements. We are so proud of the dedication, effort, and achievement happening in our schools.
To celebrate, there will be no school for students on May 28th.
¡Estamos muy orgullosos de nuestros estudiantes, maestros y escuelas!
