March Cornerstone: Teamwork

Creating a Culture of Collaboration

One of the things I truly believe sets District 93 apart is our commitment to teamwork. This is more than an ideal; it’s a fundamental expectation in how we work together as a Professional Learning Community.

Creating a strong culture of collaboration in our district hasn’t come quickly or easily. We first introduced Professional Learning Communities, with the expectation that teachers would work in collaborative teams, nearly 15 years ago. And as we’ve stayed committed to that expectation - and provided teachers with the time and support to do meaningful work focused on improving student learning - we’ve seen it grow from an expectation into an essential part of our school culture.

Your support in protecting collaboration time for teachers on Mondays has been a big part of that growth. Thank you for supporting our teachers with the time to engage in professional collaborative learning to design success for every student.

America250 Service Challenge

Neighbors Helping Neighbors the Idaho Way

Graphic promoting the 'Kindness in Action' Idaho Service Challenge for Bonneville Joint School District No. 93.
Bonneville Joint School District 93 is proud to participate in the America250 in Idaho Service Challenge — an initiative inviting individuals, families, classrooms, businesses, faith groups, and entire communities to serve in ways big and small.
For this challenge, an “act of service” is defined simply as:
Any intentional action that provides a meaningful benefit to others.
Whether it takes five minutes or five hours — if it makes a difference, it counts.
At D93, we know service doesn’t have to be complicated. It can look like:
  • Donating used books or clothing
  • Helping take in a neighbor’s garbage bins
  • Picking up trash along a trail
  • Offering encouragement to a colleague
  • Supporting a student who needs a little extra care
Does it count? Yes.
As a district, we are committed to modeling kindness through action. When D93 students and staff serve others — in our schools, in our neighborhoods, and throughout our community — we strengthen not only those around us, but the culture of who we are.
Kindness becomes powerful when it turns into service.
Neighbors helping neighbors: The Idaho way.
And here in D93, it’s the way we lead.

Cloverdale 3rd Graders Named Idaho READBowl Champions 📚🏆

Ms. Nielsen’s 3rd grade class at Cloverdale Elementary participated in the global READBowl challenge in January, a literacy competition founded by former NFL and Super Bowl Champion Malcolm Mitchell.

Over four weeks, students tracked their in-school and at-home reading minutes, logging an incredible 75,603 total minutes — nearly 3,600 minutes per student. Their hard work earned them the title of Idaho State Champions!

Reading and literacy are cornerstones of D93, and we couldn’t be prouder of these dedicated students and their families for making reading a priority. 💙📖

EIRMC Health Minute

When to Choose a Freestanding Emergency Room (FSER)

When an illness or injury strikes, knowing where to go can save valuable time. Freestanding Emergency Rooms (FSERs) are hospital-owned, off-campus emergency rooms that provide the same level of emergency care as a hospital ER—just closer to home. They’re open 24/7/365, staffed by board-certified emergency physicians and specially trained nurses, and equipped to handle serious, life-threatening conditions.
In Idaho Falls, the North Idaho Falls ER is a department of Eastern Idaho Regional Medical Center, offering full-service emergency care including imaging, labs, pediatric-ready services, ambulance access, and seamless transfer to the main hospital if higher-level care is needed. FSERs typically have shorter wait times, accept the same insurance plans as hospital ERs, and treat patients regardless of ability to pay.
Go to an ER or FSER for emergencies such as:
  • Chest pain or suspected heart attack
  • Stroke symptoms
  • Trouble breathing or severe allergic reactions
  • Broken bones, severe burns, or deep bleeding wounds
  • High fever, dehydration, poisoning, or overdose
If you’re unsure where to go, you can also call Consult-A-Nurse® for free, 24/7 guidance at 844-706-8773.
