Help Shape the Future of Boise Schools

Families, staff, students and community members are encouraged to participate in one of four Boise School District Long-Range Facilities Master Planning Community Feedback Meetings on September 22 and 23.
Our school facilities play an important role in supporting student learning and the high-quality education our students deserve. The District’s long-range facilities roadmap will guide future investments in our schools and help ensure that facilities continue to support safe, welcoming and effective learning environments, evolving educational programs and current and projected enrollment.
Representatives from the Long-Range Facilities Master Planning Task Force will share their preliminary recommendations, answer questions and gather community feedback. No final decisions have been made. Input received during these meetings will help refine the recommendations before they are presented to the Boise School District Board of Trustees.
Tuesday, September 22
Wednesday, September 23
Both in-person meetings will be held at the Boise School District Training Center, 3324 S. Milwaukee St., Suite 130, Boise.
Our schools belong to this community, and your perspective matters. Please attend, learn more and help ensure that Boise’s schools continue to provide high-quality educational opportunities for every student.
Additional information is available on the 2026 Facilities Master Planning webpage.
