Parents: Because of the road conditions, weather and continued melting snow, we will implement alternate bus routes for FEBRUARY 7-8, 2024. Some bus routes will be affected (see image for affected routes). Please turn on your emergency flashers so bus drivers know when to stop. We will start picking up students at 6:20 AM the furthest out and moving towards town. In the afternoon, please return to the intersection to pick up your students (both elementary and then again for secondary). This will affect the following buses. We realize this is an inconvenience for parents, but this is a precaution being taken for roads affected by the rain, melting snow, and severely muddy roads. If you have questions, please call 208-436-4727.

Thank you for your patience yesterday as we experienced network issues that affected our internet and phone system. As of this morning, the phones and internet are working and the technology department is closely monitoring it. Thank you for your patience the last several days.
MINICO PARKING: As you are aware, over the break, we received close to 13 inches of snow. Our Minidoka Maintenance crew has been working hard on our parking lot, but there is A LOT of heavy wet snow and nowhere to go with it. Multiple parking spots are covered with plowed snow in both the front and back parking lots.
PLEASE do not park in another students spot if yours is covered. They have cleared the overflow out by the tennis courts and behind the baseball field. We need you park out there. PLEASE do not try to park in areas that are open and block drive ways or roads. PLEASE do not park in non designated parking places, if it does not have parking lines, do not park there- this creates other hazards.
If you can carpool with friends and family it would really help.
This is not ideal, however, it is not anyones fault and our maintenance crew is working hard to help us out.
Thank you for your patience as we work through this.
