Be watching for more information about an awesome first home game where our "Legacy Team" of 1974 will be honored on Dec. 2nd.
Board of Trustees Member, Willy Schmitt, has served on our School Board for 10 years and decided not to run again in the November 7th Election. No one submitted the required paperwork to run in Zone 2 before the election deadline, therefore that zone is left with a vacancy beginning in January.
If anyone who resides in Zone 2 would like to serve on the West Jefferson Board of Trustees, please submit a letter of intent to the school board stating your desire to serve on the board. Letters can be emailed to Board Clerk, Carrie DeGraw, (degrawc@wjsd.org) or mailed to the West Jefferson School District Office; 1256 E 1500 N; Terreton, ID 83450.

There have been some changes in the rules for school basketball. We just wanted to make our Panther fans aware of this before you wonder what in the world is going on when you are watching a ballgame.
Beginning the 2023-24 season, basketball teams will shoot two free throws for common fouls when in the “bonus.” Teams will reach the bonus when their opponent commits five team fouls in each quarter. Team fouls will reset at the end of each quarter. This change to Rule 4-8-1 eliminates the one-and-one scenario and sets new foul limits each quarter for awarding the bonus free throw.
Shot clocks are also in effect for high school basketball this season. To read more about the rules of the high school shot clock, click here: https://5il.co/291zs
