Birth Certificate on File: All students attending the public school must have their birth certificate on file in the school. Idaho Code requires that each student have a certified copy of the birth certificate. If you do not have this record on file, please plan to do so.

Proof of Immunization: The Idaho Code requires that updated immunization records be presented prior to enrollment in our school. Please be sure your child is properly immunized before enrolling in school. Without proof of immunization we cannot enroll any child.

New this year, A Moment of Silence:
In accordance with a new Idaho state law, all TFSD schools will implement a 60-second moment of silence at the start of each school day. In alignment with this legislation, classroom teachers will not provide instruction or guidance regarding the purpose or use of this time. We ask that parents and caregivers take the lead in having conversations with their children about how your family would like them to utilize this quiet moment to prepare for the school day.


Sincerely,

Amy McBride
Principal
Robert Stuart Middle School
