Minico HS invites all students to participate in the Idaho Student Well-Being Survey. This survey helps us better understand the issues students in our schools and community are facing. The results allow us to plan more effectively and provide the resources and supports that students and families need most. Participation requires a signed permission form. A link to review the survey questions is available here: Survey Preview
Only students with returned permission forms will take the survey.
Permission forms are being sent home Tuesday, please ask your student for the form.
Thank you for your participation as we work more effectively in supporting our students.
