EMERGENCY RESPONSE TEACHER INSERVICE. We want to thank local law enforcement, dispatch, Fremont EMS, and other emergency service personnel for helping us with our inservice at North Fremont High School today. All school staff from Ashton Elementary and North Fremont experienced active shooter drills, hostage situations, fire emergencies, and emergency medical support training. This was excellent practice and helped our schools better understand how to respond in emergencies. Your local schools will be conducting drills throughout the year to practice what we learned today. We will be repeating this training on January 19 at Henry's Fork Elementary (for HFE, PE, and TE) and on February 9 at South Fremont High School (for SFJ and SFH). If you would like to learn more or even see what is happening, contact your school for details.

HARVEST UPDATE (10-5-2023). All schools will be back in session for the whole district on Monday. Due to the weather, many farmers one both ends of the district are still trying to complete the harvest and many students are still working. Students who have missed or who will miss school due to harvest on either end of the district will still be counted as being absent and count against the 8 day limit each semester; however, the absences will be tracked by the schools. Similar to COVID related absences in the past, students who may exceed the 8 day limit due to harvest work will be able to work closely with the schools and teachers to make up any missed work and will have this taken into consideration by the administration when determining the need to make up time. A form to document harvest related absences can be picked up in the office. It will need to be filled out and then signed by the employer and the student's parents/guardians. If you have questions, please contact your school.
HARVEST BREAK DATES CHANGED. Harvest break will be the weeks of Sept. 18 and Sept. 25 for the north end (as listed on the original calendar). The School Board has changed the dates for harvest for the south end of the District to the weeks of Sept. 25 and Oct. 2 . We hope the weather will cooperate.
PRESCHOOL CHILD FIND SCREENING. Henry’s Fork Elementary and Ashton Elementary are conducting Preschool Child Find screenings for children ages 3 to 5 suspected of having a disability or developmental delay which may be impacting your child’s typical development.
A screening will be held between 8:00 AM and 3:00 PM on Wednesday, August 23rd at Henry’s Fork Elementary, and between 9:00 AM and 12:00 PM, tomorrow, Tuesday, August 22nd at Ashton Elementary.
South end of District: Please call Martha Weatherford or Celeste Frogue at 208-624-7422 to schedule an appointment.
North end of District: Please call Megan Hill or Keelie Potter at 208-652-7601 to schedule an appointment.
Please note that if your child is already enrolled in our preschool program or appears to be functioning and developing at a typical rate, they do not need to be screened. Thank you!
