Everyone is invited to the Hamer PTO Halloween Carnival - Mon. Oct. 28th 5-8pm @ Hamer Elementary School


We were pleased to have State Superintendent Debbie Critchfield visit our Terreton Campus recently! She was able to meet with Mr. Williams, meet both of our principals, tour the schools, visit elementary & high school classrooms to talk to the students, sit on Mrs. Scott's famous orange couch, and leave with a caramel apple treat as she traveled to another school district that day.
(Mrs. Scott and Mrs. Dalling put together a West Jefferson themed gift for her that included West J colored M&M's with Superintendent Critchfield's face on them!)


Through a state department grant, West Jefferson and Clark County School Districts have teamed up to hire a school nurse. We want to welcome Jolyn Burtenshaw and have asked her to share a little bit about herself and what her role in our district will be.
"Hello West Jefferson!
I'm thrilled to introduce myself as the new school nurse at West Jefferson School District. My name is Jolyn Burtenshaw, and I'm eager to become a part of your school family.
With a BSN degree from BYU-Idaho and a nursing license, I have had lots of previous experience in pediatrics, labor and delivery, and geriatrics. I'm excited to apply my skills to this new role as a school nurse and contribute to the health and well-being of your children.
I'll be available at school every Wednesday and Thursday from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM. During my time there, I'll be providing medical attention to students who need it, ensuring that we have the necessary policies and procedures in place for student safety, and working closely with parents and students to gather essential documentation. This includes immunization records, exemptions, and birth certificates. I will also be working with parents and students to create action plans for students with health conditions.
Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or concerns. I look forward to getting to know you and your families. "
