school

Talking about the pandemic is exhausting, boring, depressing, and draining. But here I am talking about it. As much as I'd love to ignore it, the truth is Covid-19 is affecting all facets of life. Summer gave us some respite from total worry over the health of our kids, but school is fast approaching and decisions need to be made...

I have a friend that said "byeeeee, kiddos, done with you" and another that said "that's a hard pass." Will you send your kids back to school in the fall?

I received an e-mail from the West Ada School District yesterday detailing what school will look like in the fall. I've been wondering if my kids will ever go back and they do have a plan in place.

I once pulled the fire alarm at me elementary school as a kid (I was kind of a Dennis The Menace) because I always thought it made the day fun and exciting. Today it happened it at work, and it wasn't as fun...

I understand that when you're a parent you commit to raising kids for a good 18 years, but it's also expected that those kids will go off to school around age 6 and the cost of daycare or the opportunity for Mama to work outside of the home will arise. In these crazy times kids are out of school when parents had planned on them being in the classroom and the future is rapidly changing. I'm curious parents, how is this affecting your ability to work?

We have one school here in the Treasure Valley that is resuming class inside the classroom tomorrow. This is what they are doing to try to keep their students and staff safe.

It's official, all schools in the Boise School District say they will not re-open for the rest of the 2020 school year due to the COVID-19 pandemic

Treasure Valley parents are dealing with keeping their kids occupied and educated during the stay-at-home order that has closed area schools. Now schools are considering keeping schools closed until April 20th even if the stay-at-home order is lifted on April 15th.

The State of Idaho has just made a move to, if not reduce, maintain the already established level as stress as all of Idaho's 4-year colleges have announced the intent to freeze in-state tuition for next school year.

UC-Berkley just added adulting classes to the curriculum, and more colleges are adding programs like that all the time. If you need a refresher, we've got adulting classes right here in Boise too. But what do they teach?
