We have recently seen an increase in several behavior concerns at Declo High School. We are asking for your support in reinforcing these expectations at home as we work to maintain a positive, safe, and productive learning environment.

• Cell Phones: Cell phones continue to be a major distraction, even when students are simply carrying them. Our expectation is clear: All cell phones must be stored in lockers or vehicles during the school day. Students should not have phones in their pockets or on their person. We will be strictly enforcing this expectation moving forward.

• Tardies and Truancy: We are seeing a significant increase in students arriving late to class, skipping classes, or leaving assigned areas without permission. Being in class and on time is essential to student success. We will be closely monitoring attendance and enforcing consequences for tardies and truancy.

• Chromebooks: Students are expected to bring their school-issued Chromebooks fully charged and ready to use every day. Being prepared for class is an important part of academic success.

• 
  

Our first round of interim ISAT assessments will be taking place soon for all juniors during their regularly scheduled class times. Students will complete assessments in Math, Science, and English Language Arts (ELA).

These assessments give students an opportunity to become familiar with the ISAT testing process while providing teachers with valuable information to guide instruction and identify areas where additional support may be needed.

We appreciate your support in encouraging students to come prepared and give their best effort!

We need your help gathering important feedback. This year, we’re collecting input through a quick online form—no paper copies needed. However, if you prefer a paper version, you can still click the link, print it, and drop it off at the school.

Our goal is to receive at least one form for each teacher. Your feedback truly matters and helps us improve and celebrate the great work happening in our classrooms.

Please click the link below and complete the form.

Cassia County Joint School District No. 151 is committed to supporting the academic and personal success of every student. Consistent attendance is essential for learning, growth, and meeting state requirements. Idaho law requires school attendance for students ages 7–16.

At Declo High, students must attend 90% of school days each semester to earn credit, which means no more than 8 absences in a daily class. Students who exceed this limit may lose credit unless there are documented extenuating circumstances.

Thank you for your partnership in ensuring your student attends regularly. Strong attendance truly makes a lasting difference in their success.

Declo Junior High School is a Title 1 school. This designation is a federally funded program that provides salaries for our paraeducators. Much of our funding comes from our Free & Reduced Lunch application qualifiers. Our school is below the required percentage to meet our current staffing levels.

As a school, we are asking that you please consider filling out the enclosed F&R application. There is only one form needed per family. We ask that all completed forms be sent to the office by November 21st.

Thank you for your time and effort to help our school.
