Dear Miner Families,

Next week is Staff Appreciation Week at our school!

We are excited to take time next week to celebrate all of our staff and the important roles they play in helping students grow and succeed. Each day will include special recognition and activities, so be sure to check out our school Facebook page for pictures and updates.

If your child would like to bring or send something to a staff member, they are absolutely welcome to do so. We are looking forward to a great week of appreciation and gratitude for the amazing people who make our school such a special place.

Warm Regards,
Principal Harding

Congrats to Mrs. Slobe (2nd Grade) & Mrs. Royse (4th Grade) Classes!

These students were selected to be recognized by their peers for having the cleanest tables in the cafeteria during lunch & modeling TRAIL behavior. Good work, Miners!
 

Boise Hawks Reading Program

We are excited to participate in the Boise Hawks Reading Program! Each student has received a reading booklet to track their progress.

Once the program requirements are met, students will earn a voucher for a free Boise Hawks game ticket. Please help your child track their reading and reach out to their teacher if you have any questions.

Happy reading, and go Hawks!
 

Parking Lot

This is a friendly reminder to avoid parking along the west curb painted in red. Doing this helps maintain safe and efficient traffic flow in our parking lot.

Also, please remember that in order to help us all clear out the parking lot efficiently, we are having families exit the parent pick up parking lot by turning right (only) or crossing Mason Creek into the subdivision morning and afternoon.
Thank you!

After School Opportunity

Every Thursday, Kuna Athletic Club brings movement, skill-building, and fun to our students! It’s a great opportunity to stay active, learn new skills, and enjoy being part of a team. See the flyer for details.
 

Preschool Opportunity

If you are looking for preschool options, here is a local one to consider.

"Stay on the TRAIL"

At Silver Trail Elementary, we have schoolwide rules that apply everywhere students go—classroom, bathroom, hallway, cafeteria, playground, bus, and beyond. These expectations help create a safe, respectful, and positive learning environment for everyone.

We remind students to "Stay on the TRAIL" every day during announcements, using our TRAIL expectations:
  • T – Team Player
  • R – Respectful
  • A – Accountable
  • I – Integrity
  • L – Leadership
By following TRAIL expectations, our students are set up for success no matter where they are in our school community and earn TRAIL tickets for the school store when they get caught following the TRAIL.
