Santa Photos
Santa has taken time off of his busy schedule to come visit our amazing little school. Our students are lucky enough to have 2 opportunities to have their picture taken with him; December 6th and December 12th.
Red Line Photography has generously offered to take the pictures, professionally edit, and e-mail them to you! All of this for only $5 for Santa and 1 student, or $7 for Santa and 2 or 3 Students. The great thing about having them e-mailed to you is that you are free to make as many copies as you would like, share them online, or e-mail them to friends and family!
Presale tickets are available in the office. We ask that the forms and payment be returned the day before the chosen date.
Happy Holidays from you're Owyhee Family!

Holiday Food Drive Donations AT OWYHEE!
Hello Parents/Guardians/Families of Owyhee Students,
Owyhee has many families in need this holiday season. We are asking you to help us with food packages for these families. Beginning 11/26 through 12/14, we will have a food drive. Our students will put together packages for our families in need of assistance. We are very excited to support our family community.
Here are some most needed items:
Fruits & Vegetables Canned Vegetables Fruits canned in juice or extra light syrup. 100% fruit and/or vegetable juices Tomato products and pasta sauces (Reduced sodium is best!) Proteins Canned or dried beans and peas Unsalted nuts Canned meats and fish (Low Sodium) (All natural with no trans-fat is best)
Canned meals (Soup, Stew, Chili, etc.)
Peanut or other nut butters
Grains Whole grain pasta Regular or instant brown rice Plain oats/oatmeal Whole grain cereals with low sugar Dairy Non-fat or low-fat milk Milk alternatives (rice, soy, almond) These items must be boxed, canned, or dehydrated so they are shelf-stable.
Pantry Staples Canola or other cooking oils Whole wheat or all-purpose flour Baking powder and baking soda Dried herbs and spices Sugar Personal Care Items Toilet paper Diapers Toothpaste and toothbrushes Soap and shampoo Deodorant
Please bring items to the Owyhee office 11/26-12/14. Donations for these items will be accepted until 12/14/2018
Music Performance DVD's
A musical presentation of 'Twas the Night Before Christmas will be presented by Mrs. Stern-Wall's, Mrs. Abeyta's, Mrs. Mitchell's and Mrs. Walsh's classes on Tuesday, December 11th, at 9 a.m. in the gym.
A DVD of the program will be available for a $10 donation. We have contracted a videographer to video our program & create a DVD. Many times we want to watch our children perform, but often sacrifice ‘living the moment’ for the recording of a memory. Now you can do both. They also make a great gift for grandparents. Orders for a DVD will be taken until Thursday, November 15th. Orders must be accompanied with a donation. Checks can be made to Boise Public Schools Foundation.
Lost & Found
All lost & found items will be donated on 12/7/2018
