Eastern Idaho Public Health will be at the school on Monday, October 16th from 8:30 - 9:30 to administer flu vaccinations . Consent forms will be sent home today, Thursday, October 12th. Parents/guardians need to be present or available for a phone call in order for their student to receive the vaccine on Monday.
HARVEST UPDATE (10-5-2023). All schools will be back in session for the whole district on Monday. Due to the weather, many farmers one both ends of the district are still trying to complete the harvest and many students are still working. Students who have missed or who will miss school due to harvest on either end of the district will still be counted as being absent and count against the 8 day limit each semester; however, the absences will be tracked by the schools. Similar to COVID related absences in the past, students who may exceed the 8 day limit due to harvest work will be able to work closely with the schools and teachers to make up any missed work and will have this taken into consideration by the administration when determining the need to make up time. A form to document harvest related absences can be picked up in the office. It will need to be filled out and then signed by the employer and the student's parents/guardians. If you have questions, please contact your school.
Picture day for Ashton Elementary will be Thursday, October 12th. Non-attending children are welcome between 11:00 - 12:00. If you would like to place an online order, go to bellphoto.com and use the code AshtonES215Fall23.

NF & AE DELAYED START (4/19/2023). Due to drifting snow on roads, North Fremont and Ashton Elementary will be on a two-hour delayed start this morning. Classes will start at 10:00. This will hopefully give enough time to plow roads and get our students to school safely. Please be safe this morning.
