Way to go, Mountain Home High School! What an amazing initiative!

Last night at the Boise State football game vs. South Dakota, MountainHomeBOLD was recognized as part of the BroncoBOLD Ambassador Program for our work to promote mental health awareness, reduce stigma, and remind our students that Mental Health Matters.

We are incredibly proud of our students, staff, and community who continue to make mental health a priority in our community. We are so grateful to Boise State and BroncoBOLD for the opportunity and the tremendous experience last night!

THURSDAY RESOURCE ROUNDUP!

This week’s resource spotlight is Special Education & IEP Support. Navigating special education services can feel overwhelming, especially when your family is already navigating the challenges of military life and school transitions.

If your child has an IEP (Individualized Education Program) or you’re wondering whether your child may need additional educational support, there are resources available to help you understand the process.

An IEP can help identify your child’s individual educational needs, goals, accommodations, and specialized services.

Not sure where to start? Talk with your child’s teacher, school counselor, special education team, or school administrator. And remember you don’t have to navigate it alone!

As your School Liaison, I’m here to help military-connected families understand school processes, find resources, and connect with the right people.

Have a question about special education, IEPs, school transitions, or educational resources? Reach out, I am here to help!

Drop in the comments what you would like to hear about next Thursday!

OPERATION HIGH FIVES FOR GOOD VIBES IS BACK! 🙌

We kicked off the first Operation High Fives of the school year by welcoming students at MHHS, Hacker Middle School, and East Elementary with high fives, smiles, and plenty of words of encouragement!

A HUGE thank you to all of our amazing volunteers who make this event so special! From Col Adrian, 366 MSG/CC, to our military and civilian personnel, and our friends at Idaho Power and St. Luke’s, you all showed up BIG today! 👏

Today was a perfect reminder that when we come together as ONE community, we can make a difference, one high five at a time! ✋✨

This morning marked our first Flagpole Friday of the school year, and on such a heavy and significant day as September 11th, the symbolism of coming together, standing united, and reciting the Pledge of Allegiance was especially heartwarming.

Today was a powerful reminder that honoring our history means remembering those we lost, recognizing the courage and sacrifice of so many, and ensuring that the next generation understands the significance of this day.

A heartfelt thank you to Stephensen Elementary School for your dedication, thoughtful assembly, and commitment to honoring those we have lost while teaching our students about the history behind September 11th. 🇺🇸

We are also grateful for the leadership and support of Col Gunter, 366 FW/ CC Col Adrian, 366 MSG/CC and CMSgt Marques, 366 FW/Command Chief, for joining us this morning and standing alongside our students, staff, and families.

And to all of the military-connected families, military members, and civilians who came together this morning, thank you. Your presence, your support, and your commitment to our community matter.

On a day that reminds us of what can divide us, this morning was a beautiful reminder of what can unite us.

We remember. We honor. We stand together. 🇺🇸

It’s Thursday… you know what that means! RESOURCE ROUNDUP!

This week, we’re talking MIC3 — the Interstate Compact on Educational Opportunity for Military Children.

Military moves can bring a LOT of changes for students and families, but you don’t have to navigate those transitions alone!

MIC3 is here to help! The Compact provides guidelines that support military-connected students as they transition between schools and states. It addresses areas such as:

🎓 Enrollment & Registration — helping make the transition into a new school smoother.

📖 Course & Educational Placement — supporting students when transferring schools and ensuring their academic progress is considered.

📝 Records — helping with the timely transfer of important school records.

🏫 Graduation Requirements — providing flexibility when military moves create challenges with completing graduation requirements.

❤️ Student Support — recognizing that military-connected students may experience unique challenges during moves, deployments, and reintegration.

💡 Did you know? If your family is PCSing, your student is transitioning schools, or you’re returning from a deployment, MIC3 may provide protections or options that can help.

As your School Liaison, I’m here to help you understand your options, connect you with the right resources, and advocate for a smoother educational transition for your military-connected student.

👉 Have a MIC3 question? Drop it in the comments or send me a message! Your question might even become next week’s Resource Roundup! 😉
