Hello Hansen Community!

We are officially through the first quarter of the 2024-2025 school year! It has brought great pleasure and joy to watch our students grow, find success, and enjoy their time here as a Husky. With the quarter coming to an end brings parent teacher conferences next week be looking for communication from teachers and your student to schedule your conference time. I'm excited to see what amazing things will continue to happen for the remainder of the school year.

Mrs. Carter is looking to create a senior trip committee to help establish guidelines for senior trips. Feedback from parents and the community is extremely important in this decision making process which may include the amount of money spent, locations to travel, etc. Currently we would like at least one parent from each grade level. We would like to schedule a meeting with the committee ASAP so the agreed upon plan can be communicated with senior students and advisors. For more information please contact Mrs. Carter.

Please complete this form if you are interested.

FFA has been putting in a lot of hard work as they prepare for competitions and nationals. A lot of learning has been taking place for our younger FFA members who got to wear their FFA jacket for the first time. The high school FFA members are gearing up for nationals in Indianapolis the week of October 21st. Great job and way to represent Hansen! We are excited to help celebrate your experience and successes!

This last week the College of Southern Idaho women's basketball and volleyball teams came out to talk with our students about getting involved in activities whether it is athletics or student clubs and organizations. The athletes from the college gave great insight on the importance of being actively involved as well as the benefits- short term and long term- that come from joining an activity. We look forward to seeing participation rates grow within our school and district. Thank you again, CSI, for coming out and helping support our students!

Our Building Leadership Team has created a protocol flow chart that students, parents, staff, and community members may follow when addressing concerns. We have established three different flow charts: one for student activities such as BPA, FFA, NHS, and Student Government; one for students that participate in athletics; and one for general concerns that directly relate to the school which could include classroom and building level concerns. Please follow the link below to access the flowcharts. This information is also found on the Jr/Sr High School website.
