Basin Elementary Parent Survey
As part of our annual reflection process, we are asking parents to complete a parent survey. We have revised our parent survey to help us gather more specific information about our school. Your feedback is important to us. Each year we make adjustments to our programs and activities based on your ideas. It is an anonymous survey, so please take this opportunity to give us genuine feedback. Be sure to maximize your screen so that you can view the entire width of the survey. You can access the survey from the following website: http://209.253.35.43/applications/survey

Drama in the Basin
Idaho City Elementary, Middle School, and High School watched professional drama performances this past month. The Idaho Shakespeare Festival selects an abridged version of a play to take to Idaho schools during the year. They brought A Midsummer Night’s Dream to ICHS/MS on March 11. Students were intrigued with the unique sets that covered the gym floor, and the vitality of the six actors who played several roles to include the entire plot of this comedy. Idaho Theater for Youth also selects one play to perform at schools. Basin Elementary sat on the floor fascinated with Mr. Toad and the rest in Wind in the Willows on April 7. Both troops spend time after the show to talk with students and answer questions.
Funding from the Idaho City/Basin 72 PTSA and the Idaho City Arts Council made these performances possible.

Congratulations to Mrs. Randolph's Class! By reading 100 books, the fifth graders in Idaho City were rewarded by Scholastic, Inc. with a donation to a school in need, Pine Ridge Reservation School located in South Dakota. Reaching the goal of 100 books also allowed an entry into a drawing for 500 books. Out of 16,000 entries across the nation, two-hundred school names were drawn. The 5th Grade Class at Basin Elementary won 500 books from Scholastic! The books range from the pre-school to the middle school level. The books are to be donated to the community and to those in need. Our class is very excited to have been the recipient of this gift and to be able to give to others!
