Helping Things Go Right

As we head into Spring Break next week, I wanted to take a moment to share a simple idea that has been on my mind.

This time of year can feel busy and sometimes overwhelming for students, families, and staff. It’s easy to focus on what’s not going right or what still needs to be fixed.

But one of the most powerful ways we can support our students is by helping things go right.

In The Anatomy of Peace, this is described as focusing on the foundation—building relationships, listening, learning, and supporting one another. When we invest time there, things tend to go right more often.

Spring Break is a great opportunity for that. I hope your family is able to slow down a bit, spend time together, and recharge. Those moments matter. They help students come back ready to finish the year strong.

We’re grateful for your partnership and all you do to support your children and our schools. We look forward to a strong finish to the school year together.

Falls Valley Recognized for Outstanding Academic Growth

This week Idaho Education News recognized Falls Valley Elementary for ranking in the top 5 of most improved schools in the state based on the Idaho Department of Education’s latest school performance data.

This recognition reflects strong growth across multiple measures, including student achievement, progress, attendance, and overall performance. It’s a meaningful accomplishment, especially given that these rankings are based on statewide comparisons.

Most importantly, this recognition reflects the hard work and commitment of the Falls Valley staff, the support of families, and the effort of students showing up each day ready to learn and improve.

Congratulations to the entire Falls Valley community on this well-deserved recognition.

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.

Backpack Safety 101: Simple Tips to Help Prevent Student Injuries


Backpacks are a daily part of school, but carrying too much weight or wearing them incorrectly can lead to back, neck, and shoulder pain for kids. Experts recommend that a backpack should weigh no more than 10% of a child’s body weight and fit snugly with both straps worn. Packing heavier items close to the back and only bringing what’s needed each day can help prevent injury and keep students comfortable.
