School Closure Guidelines

At Idaho Falls School District 91, the safety and well-being of our students and staff are our highest priorities. Eastern Idaho's winters are known for their harsh and unpredictable weather, with temperatures frequently plummeting well below zero and wind chills sometimes reaching a bone-chilling -20°F or lower. These extreme conditions not only pose a risk to health and safety but also create challenges for transportation and school operations.

Behind this effort is a team of hardworking professionals, including cooks, kitchen staff, servers, cashiers, warehouse workers, drivers, and menu planners, who work tirelessly to bring wholesome meals to our schools. Whether it’s crafting balanced menus, ensuring the timely delivery of ingredients, or serving delicious meals, every role is essential to keeping our students well-nourished and ready to learn.
