The Idaho Falls Board of Trustees is asking D91 patrons to renew the supplemental levy that generates $6.8 million a year in critical funding for Idaho Falls’ schools. Patrons will go to the polls on March 9. The supplemental levy has been in place for more than 30 years. The amount of the levy has not changed since 2003, but Idaho law requires patrons to renew supplemental levies every two years. Learn More

D91 schools are closed on Monday, Jan. 18 and there will be no curbside meals served at Skyline and Compass Academy so our teachers can take part in districtwide staff development. Thank you!

The Idaho Department of Health and Welfare has issued new guidance on quarantine periods for K-12 students and staff who have been in close contact with someone at school who has tested positive for COVID-19. Idaho Falls School District 91 plans to implement this new guidance beginning today, Monday, Jan. 11.  If the person who tests positive and the person in close contact were both wearing masks that cover their nose and mouth, the close contact does not need to isolate for 10 days as previously directed. They can continue to attend in-person classes, but should monitor themselves closely for COVID-19 symptoms. Learn more.
