• With the extreme cold weather we have been having, we have moved the buses back to the front of the school. You ARE welcome to also continue to use the drop off/pickup there. Just be courteous to our bus drivers and please do not have students cross in front of buses.
• Please remember to dress your students appropriately for the weather. Hats, gloves and coats are really helpful in keeping our students warm while they are outside at recess.
• Please remember that helium balloons are not allowed on the bus so we would prefer no balloons being delivered to your child for Valentines Day (I promise they want chocolate instead)!

Mark your calendars! SCIENCE NIGHT is coming to Rupert Elementary on February 9th!

Join us at this FREE community event for an interactive, immersive, hands on science experience.

This event features professional experts in the fields on science, technology, engineering and math, and has become a crowd favorite in the last 6 years.

Discover the excitement for yourself and get YOUR HANDS ON SCIENCE!

Our counselor has been hard at work in creating a resource manual for parents. See the attachment below. This is NOT a comprehensive list of all available resources but it will be helpful to have all of these resources in one place. If you have any questions or need additional information please call the school counselor, Courtney White, at 208-436-9707 or visit https://211-idaho.communityos.org/ or call 2-1-1.
