Yesterday was a wonderful first day of school across the Lewiston School District! Students and staff at Jenifer Middle School kicked off the year with smiles, energy, and excitement for all that’s ahead. Here’s to a great 2025–26 school year!
Tomorrow is the big day! Over 730 staff members from across the Lewiston Independent School District No. 1 are ready to welcome students back. We’re excited for another year of ensuring high levels of learning for ALL students!
Sacajawea and Jenifer Middle School WEB (Where Everybody Belongs) leaders have been hard at work! This week, 8th grade leaders spent two full days training with WEB program coordinators to get ready for 6th grade orientation. WEB is a middle school transition program that empowers positive student leaders to welcome and mentor incoming 6th graders. Through team-building activities, mentoring, and fun events, our WEB leaders will help create a safe, supportive, and connected start to middle school for all students. We can’t wait to see these leaders in action tomorrow!

Middle school summer learners had a great time touring Idaho Forest Group! Students observed the entire process of how a log is transformed into a usable board.
They were grateful for the learning opportunity and for the donated boards they used to build their birdhouses.
Thank you, Idaho Forest Group, for supporting education!

Summer learning students put their engineering skills to the test with a hands-on bridge-building STEM project! Each bridge was tested to its limit (until it broke or they ran out of weights). The winning design held nearly 100 pounds and never broke!
Special thanks to Dutch Bros LC Valley and Java Stop for donating gift cards as prizes; your support truly motivated our students and made the challenge even more exciting!
