“Mr. Praska is awesome, he is always full of energy and he makes the warm-ups and stretching fun. It is always fun to go to his class and workout, and the energy in the class is always the best.
Ms. Betty has by far been the most inspirational and wonderful teacher I have had in my years of school. Her ability to inspire is from her being able to so fully enjoy what she does. She has taught me to enjoy what I do in life and to make the best of any situation even though it may be difficult.
Mr. Pankau stood out as a teacher who truly got me excited about learning and kept me engaged in the classroom. Mr. Pankau did his best to take learning outside of the classroom and implement hands-on experiences into his teaching. These classes gave me the desire to pursue a degree in wildlife science and management by reinforcing my love for being educated about the natural world around us.
Shayne is an incredibly dedicated student. She asks wonderful clarifying questions that benefit not only herself but also her peers. When a student says they can't do something, Shayne often pushes them to reconsider their outlook and attempt to do their work anyway. She is a positive influence in her class and never shies away from trying something new.

Mrs. Curr has helped me improve my speaking skills, my confidence, and all-around prepared me for many things in life. Her classes are the best part of my day.

WHAT'S ON THE BALLOT?

QUESTION: Shall the Board of Trustees of School District No. 25, Bannock County, State of Idaho (the "District"), be authorized to issue general obligation school bonds of said District in the principal amount of up to $45,000,000 for the purpose of financing the costs of (i) renovating and enhancing Highland High School, including (a) repairs to damaged facilities, (b) constructing additional classrooms, (c) expanding and enhancing the gym and activity space, (d) expanding and enhancing the auditorium, and (ii) expanding and constructing additions and improvements to the gym facility at Century High School, together with furnishings and equipment necessary to operate said facilities, and all costs and expenses related thereto, such bonds to become due in such installments as may be fixed by the Board, the final installment of such bonds to come due not later than fifteen (15) years from the date of issuance, all as provided in the Resolution adopted by the Board on September 12, 2023?
The interest rate anticipated on the proposed bond issue is 3.71% per annum. The total amount estimated to be repaid over the life of the bonds, based on the anticipated interest rate, is $42,497,957, consisting of $45,000,000 in principal and $14,057,750 of interest, less $16,559,793 in estimated bond levy equalization payments. The term of the bonds will not exceed fifteen (15) years from the date of issuance. The estimated average annual cost to the taxpayer on the proposed bond is a tax of $37 per $100,000 of taxable assessed value, per year, based on current conditions. However, the District expects to receive from the State of Idaho school district facilities funds in an amount each year that will exceed the annual payments on the bonds and must first be used to repay the District's bonds. Consequently, the actual estimated tax impact of the bond is $0 per $100,000 of taxable assessed value, per year, based on current conditions. As of November 7, 2023, the total existing bonded indebtedness of the District, including interest accrued, is $0.00.
