Twin Falls School District

PLATINUM gratitude for a PLATINUM sponsor! Thank you, Jae Foundation, for going above and beyond to support Change-4-Change. You are changing lives in our community! 🌟

This fall, there was some exciting progress in the Harrison student garden! The new greenhouse—built by Canyon Ridge students under the guidance of Mr. Hoge—will soon be completed. Thanks to grants from the Twin Falls Education Foundation and Whole Kids, the project now includes a larger greenhouse, workstation tables, shelving, and an expanded drip irrigation system. The Student Garden Team will visit on Friday to see the finished structure and capture some photos. As the garden continues to grow into a valuable hands-on learning space, the next goal is to add a gazebo or shaded area so classes can enjoy the garden comfortably, even on hot days.

Remember! Today is an early release day in the TFSD!

Please join us in celebrating Samantha Corbridge, speech language pathologist at Morningside Elementary, as our Classified Employee of the Month! 👏

A curious and kind soul, Samantha’s love of reading sparked her passion for language and speech. She finds joy in watching her students’ faces light up as they master new skills and takes pride in being a safe, welcoming space for every child who needs one. 💛

🗣️ From the Principal:
“Mrs. Corbridge is an exceptional speech and language therapist with deep expertise and a genuine love for kids. Students light up when she enters the classroom, whether they work with her directly or not. She builds trust and confidence through engaging, student-centered instruction that feels like play—but delivers powerful learning. We are so lucky to have her at Morningside!”

Congratulations, Samantha! 🌟

The Twin Falls High School kitchen crew is feeling festive (and creative). They are in the holiday spirit and ready for Christmas Break!

Sports, music, and clubs help students feel connected and confident—but students experiencing homelessness often miss out because they lack the gear or supplies. A gift of $75 to Avenues for Hope can provide athletic shoes or equipment so a student can join in. Let’s work together to give every child a fair chance to participate, belong, and thrive.
