West Jefferson High School students have an early-release school day, Friday, Sep. 12th.

In the state of Idaho, high school students are required to have more instructional time than other grades, so they are scheduled for two additional Fridays during the school year.

Friday, Sep. 19th is another high school-only early-release Friday.

See the approved district calendar on our website:
