Our 2nd and 3rd grade classes spent the month participating in March Book Madness. They read lots of books and voted on their favorites in a tournament style contest. The final winning book, The Book With No Pictures by B.J. Novak, was read to all of the 2nd/3rd graders by principal Mrs. Robinson. This experience gave all of the students a joy for reading.





GEMS would like to thank DESSA SCOTT and JULIE HARINGA with Idaho Public Health for providing FREE dental services to our students last week….They saw 98 students over the course of 5 days!


The GEMS two 4th Grader classes each performed LEWIS AND CLARK, the Musical in March. What a fantastic way for the students to learn this part of history, through music, dance, poetry, drama, literature, and collaboration!











The kindergarten through third-grade students at GEMS attended an electrical safety assembly. Making Accidents Disappear has been written and produced by magician Scott Davis. Scott has been performing magic professionally for over 20 years and provides an engaging experience for young students to learn ways to prevent accidents caused by electricity. Thank you to Clearwater Power, Avista Utilities, Inland Power, and Idaho Power & Light for funding the assembly. The students and teachers thoroughly enjoyed the show!


The GEMS staff celebrated our reading interventionist, Ms. Olivia, as she is about to begin her adventure as a mom! We will miss her presence at GEMS, but are so excited for the arrival of her little bundle of joy.


The eighth grade students at GEMS had the opportunity to visit the University of Idaho campus as part of their college and career readiness learning. Although the visit offered rich experiences, the moose sighting was one of the biggest highlights!
