📢 Important Update for Parents! 📢
Boise City Public School District has updated its policy on electronic communications with students, effective July 22, 2024, to ensure a safe and professional digital environment.
Key Points of the New Policy:
Staff must maintain proper decorum online.
No improper fraternization with students via digital communication.
No listing of current students as "friends" on networking sites (with family exceptions).
All e-contacts with students should be through school-approved platforms like Remind, Google Education Suite, school e-mail, and other approved LMS.
Communication Protocol:
Teachers should use school-approved platforms for communication with students.
Parents or guardians should be included in direct communications with students unless it’s on a school-approved platform and related to academics.
In emergencies, teachers can communicate directly with students but must notify parents or guardians afterward.
The district will periodically search for inappropriate online content by staff. Any discovered misconduct will be addressed promptly, and employees may face penalties, including termination.
Why These Changes?
This new policy, in line with Oklahoma HB3958, provides better oversight and accountability, protecting both teachers and students. Remind, Google Education Suite, and other approved platforms ensure secure and reliable communication channels.
What Do Parents Need to Do?
Download Remind: Available on the App Store or Google Play (optional). Remind messages can also come via text or email. To unblock Remind, text any school or class code to 81010. Our school codes are:
High School: @boisecityh
Elementary: @boisecitye
Thank you for helping us maintain a safe and effective learning environment! Stay informed and connected! 📲✨

It's that time of the year again!
Boise City Cheer will be putting on our annual Little Cats Cheer Camp Aug. 16th-17th.
We are making big changes this year! Practices will be every 2nd Wednesday of the month every month leading up to Basketball Homecoming. These practices will be 1 hour right after school. At these practices participants will have more time to learn and solidify performance materials as well as learn cheers that we do on the sidelines!
Another change that is being made this year is participants that are in 3rd grade all the way up to 6th grade will get to cheer on the sideline for a full quarter during the Homecoming Football game with our BCHS and BCJH cheerleaders!
You can find sign up forms at both Elementary and High School offices as well as the County Assessor's Office with Coach Lucy!

🌦️ High School Weather Station Update 🌦️
Hey everyone! Our high school weather station is up and running, providing real-time data on various weather conditions such as rainfall totals, humidity, temperature, wind chill, and more. 🌡️🌧️
Unfortunately, our anemometer is currently not functional, so wind speed and direction data won't be available at the moment. Hopefully, we'll be able to replace the anemometer soon!
For all the latest weather data, visit our school website at www.bcpsd.org. Just head to the menu, then under the Community Section, you'll find the Weather Station Data link. Or you can go directly to www.bcpsd.org/page/weather for detailed info. The data online is updated every 30 minutes.
By the way, our weather station recorded 0.71 inches of rain from the storm that just blew over! Stay dry and stay safe! ☔
