Meet a TFSD student who’s balancing schoolwork with the challenge of homelessness. “I do my homework at a local McDonald’s or coffee shop where I can get free Wi-Fi,” they shared. No student should have to struggle with finding a safe, quiet place to learn. Help us support students facing homelessness by donating to the Avenues for Hope campaign. Your contribution can provide food, supplies, and stability so they can focus on their education.

A round of applause for Karen Mormon! December Classified Employee of the Month. Karen is a Behavior Paraeducator at O’Leary Middle School.
Karen is from Fresno, California, and chose her career because she wanted to work with kids. She is described as caring and finds inspiration from other people’s stories. Her favorite hobby is gardening and keeping her house in order. Some day she would like to create a recipe book for her kids. She does not care for flies, and one thing most people do not know about her is her dream job would be to be a professional singer, even though she can’t sing. She wants to be remembered as helpful to her students. Her best day on the job was when a 6th grader told her she had “quite the unfortunate name!” It made her laugh and she told the student she agreed.
Principal Note:
Karen is an extremely giving person. She is always willing to help. I have never seen her turn anyone down and she accepts it all with a smile on her face. We started the year with Karen as our only Para in the building. She was busy running from class to class helping everyone she could even though she is our Behavior Para, she did what she could to help each student and teacher with any needs, academic or behavioral. We so appreciate all the hard work she puts into helping everyone have a chance at success.

Extracurricular activities help students feel connected to their schools and friends—but for students experiencing homelessness, participating in sports or music programs can be difficult without proper gear. Your donation of $75 to the Avenues for Hope campaign could help provide a student with athletic shoes or the supplies they need to join in. Let’s work together to give every student a fair chance to thrive! Donate here: https://www.avenuesforhope.org/organizations/twin-falls-school-district #EveryDollarCounts #TFSDGivesBack

Kudos to Jennifer Fish for being December’s Classified Employee of the Month! Jennifer is the Library Tech at Morningside Elementary. Jennifer is originally from Paul Idaho, where she grew up on a very big chicken farm called Merrill’s Hatcher. She chose this career because she can read all the picture books she wants! She draws inspiration from anyone who will read to her (Mrs. Friendly). She would like to be remembered as someone kind who cares. The best word to describe her is playful. She does not like shoveling snow but enjoys decorating stuff. Someday she would like to go parasailing. Her best day on the job was after reading the book WHOOSH! They got to go outside and shoot off mini rockets. Principal Note: Mrs. Fish is truly a remarkable member of the Morningside community. Her dedication to fostering a love for reading and her genuine care for students’ well-being makes her an invaluable asset. Her infectious energy brings the library to life, sparking students’ enthusiasm for books with spot-on recommendations that cater to each individual’s interest.

A special thank-you goes to Representatives Miller and Clow for being the only state-level officials able to join us this year — we truly appreciate your time and support!
We’re also grateful to our local partners, including the City of Twin Falls, Twin Falls County, the CSI Board of Trustees, the Boys and Girls Club, and the TFSD School Board, for sending representatives to make this event so impactful. 💡📚
