At our last home football game, Bank of Commerce representatives came to present a $1000 check to West Jefferson during halftime as a kickoff to the Super Fan Card Program.
When you pay with a West Jefferson debit card from the Bank of Commerce, each purchase will earn 5¢ for our schools!
We have decided to add the money we earn from the Super Fan Card Program to our new Panther Pride fund, which will go towards helping students by supplementing activities, athletics, and extra expenses that aren't covered by regular school funding.
Visit any Bank of Commerce branch and request your West Jefferson debit card. Available NOW!

GO PANTHERS!" 💙🏈
Class of 2027 worked hard today! Thirty-two students participated in College & Career Day, exploring opportunities, asking questions, and taking meaningful steps toward their futures. As of today, 28 of our 37 students have completed Apply Idaho, with additional applications still in progress. Students also made great progress toward college and training funding through Idaho LAUNCH and Idaho Opportunity.
Their season is short, so don't wait to go support them!
