The Boise School District is dedicated to creating tomorrow’s leaders. We nurture your child through a high-quality, comprehensive education. Our students grow together and build community at almost 50 neighborhood schools, where all are welcomed and provided the opportunities to become thoughtful citizens of our state and beyond. As a parent, you see your child’s potential. And we see it, too. Everything’s possible.
Sometimes I come up with an idea and I think, gosh, they’re only 8 or 9 years old, but then I say, ‘I’m going to go for it, and I’m going to offer support as we work on it.’ Every day I see kids do cool things that are amazing for their age. And I just think that’s a huge privilege to be able to see that.
We believe there are no such things as ability gaps, nor a gap in the capacity for interest and ambition. What we’re really facing is an opportunity gap, which means we need to continuously bring new things into the classroom, provide extracurricular activities, and give kids an opportunity to spark their passion early because that will change the trajectory of their life and launch them into their career paths.
