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.

Thank you for your dedication to the students of Jenifer Middle School and the Lewiston School District. Your years of service have made a difference in the lives of so many.
Congratulations on your retirement, Warren, and best wishes on this exciting new chapter!
