It was a windy but very educational day. The Upper Primary class got to visit the Shoshone Ice Caves.

We still have some spots in Kindergarten and Tues/Thurs 3’s class.

[03/16/20]   Hello Acorn parents-
Our Acorn Board members met tonight to discuss school closure due to Covid-19.
As many school districts within our state have made the decision to close due to the recommendation of the Idaho Education Association, we have decided to close as well.

We will be closed from March 16-March 27, with plans to reopen on March 30.

This has not been an easy decision as we recognize we have a small student body and our risk is much lower than that of the larger schools in our district. We would like to do our part in helping to slow the spread of this virus.

Because we value our student’s learning, Kindergarten and Primary classes will have take home packets available for pick up at the school starting Tuesday from 9:00- 4:00. If you can’t pick up during this time, please call to arrange a pickup time. We strongly encourage every parent to pick these up so students can practice their skills during this unprecedented closure.

Please use this time to stay at home and keep you and your family healthy. Practice good hand hygiene, cough etiquette,
and social distancing as much as possible.

If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to any of the teachers or board members.

Thank you,
Andrea Blackburn MSN, RNC-EFM, Acorn Board President.

We have had many inquiries on our 2020-2021 school year. Please remember that being currently enrolled does not guarantee you a spot for next year. If you have questions or concerns please talk to your teacher.

It was a beautiful day at Pomerelle Mountain Resort. What a great day to end our skiing lessons. Everyone got a chance to ride the lift today! Thank you Pomerelle Staff.

Happy Valentines Day from our kids at Acorn! Thank You “Talulah's Sips & Sweets” for the wonderful treats!
