Independent School District No. 1
Ensuring high levels of learning for ALL students
Reminder as the start to the 2026-2027 school year approaches.
Idaho Public Schools are required by Idaho Code 33-1639 to observe a daily minute of silence.
This notice is to inform you that beginning July 1, 2026 all Lewiston School District schools will observe one minute of silence at or near the beginning of each school day.
During this minute, your student may sit quietly or engage in any silent activity that is consistent with school rules and District policy as long as it doesn’t distract or interfere with other students. Disruption of the minute of silence may result in disciplinary action in accordance with the District’s student behavior policy.
The District encourages parents and guardians to offer direction to their child on silent reflection or activity to engage in during the minute of silence.
Please join us in celebrating Lori Oldfield, attendance secretary at Lewiston High School, on her retirement after 28 years of service to the Lewiston School District.
Thank you, Lori, for your dedication to our students, staff, and school community over the years. We are grateful for all you've done and wish you the very best in retirement.

Creativity and entrepreneurship were on the menu at Jenifer Middle School as 6th, 7th, and 8th grade Summer Learning students completed a fun food truck business project!
Students created their own food truck concepts, planned menus, calculated pricing, marketed their products, and sold their creations to real customers. Along the way, they learned about economics, food preparation, and profit and loss. They even got to enjoy the leftovers!

Our middle school summer learning students spent the day exploring all that Winchester Lake State Park has to offer! Students enjoyed fishing, hiking, building shelters, making s'mores, and experiencing the outdoors. For some, it was their very first time catching a fish or enjoying a campfire treat, creating memories that will last a lifetime.
A special thank you to Idaho Fish and Game for providing the fishing experience and to Leslie for spending the day helping students untangle lines, bait hooks, and celebrate every catch.
We'd also like to thank our community partners, LCCU, P1FCU, Rosauers, Rogers Motors, and Precision Sign, for supporting education and helping make hands-on learning experiences like this possible.
