Students from WASD CTE - Career and Technical Education of West Ada School District, led a student-driven social media campaign during last weeks Girls State Basketball Championship games. After working over a 12 hour day, students captured video from all six state championship games at the Idaho Center on Saturday and created the “After the Buzzer” campaign, which was posted by Idaho High School Activities Association. These students will be back to do it all again for Boys State Basketball beginning tomorrow!
Amazing work!

Yesterday, Dr. Bub met with dedicated Student Council members at Renaissance High School.
Together they strategized council structure, sponsorships acquisition, rehashed the success of homecoming, expressed their excitement for upcoming Prom, and encouraged the students graduating with their Associates Degrees to additionally participate in the conferring College’s commencement ceremony. How cool is it that so many WASD students get to have a college graduation a few days prior to their HS graduation!
