D91 pledges to “maintain safe environment & reduce distractions” as schools host run-off election

Idaho Falls School District 91 students will head to class tomorrow, coinciding with the crucial Idaho Falls Mayoral Run-Off election. The decision comes as Superintendent Karla LaOrange addresses several questions from concerned parents regarding student safety and potential disruption from increased voter traffic at polling locations in local schools.

"We are mindful that elections bring additional traffic into our buildings and will continue our longstanding practice of working closely with the Idaho Falls Police Department, our school resource officers, and the Bonneville County Elections Office to maintain a safe environment and reduce disruptions," said Superintendent LaOrange.
