Want to get involved? Consider the Superintendent's Advisory Council

The Superintendent’s Advisory Council is an advisory group of parent/guardian reps from each school who will meet with district leaders. This group typically meets monthly on Monday evenings for about 90 minutes.

Interested? Please fill out this form.

Calendar Committee parent volunteers needed

We're inviting parents/guardians to apply to serve on the School District Calendar Committee with teachers and administrators.

The group is tasked with creating options to shape our school calendar. The final decisions on options are made by the Kuna School Board.

This group will typically meet once a month for about 90 minutes in the late afternoon or early evening throughout the school year.

Interested? Please fill out this form.
