Week 35 was a beautiful way to wrap up the school year! We kicked things off with our very first Running with the Pack, where students rotated through stations alongside all grade levels and enjoyed activities like planting flowers, Disney Yoga, blowing bubbles, and so much more.
We celebrated big milestones—our kindergarteners completing their very first year of elementary school and our 5th graders finishing their final year with us. We also had the special opportunity to welcome Canyon Ridge seniors as they walked our hallways, giving our students a glimpse into their future.
The final days were filled with joy and celebration, from field trips and class parties to our memorable 5th Grade Clap Out.
Thank you to all of you for supporting your child, our teachers, and our school. It truly made this year something special. What a fantastic year it has been—enjoy your summer! ☀️

Our kindergarteners had the best day exploring our community! 🌳📚 They spent time at the city park enjoying the sunshine, playing, and making memories together. Then they visited the public library where students got to explore books, listen to stories, and grow their love for reading.









Way to go, Mr. Sheen's fifth grade class! They were the second correct response (on our second to last Wednesday of the year) for our "What's This Song?!?" Wednesday. Today's song was "Shake it Off" performed by Taylor Swift.

📚✨ Read-a-Thon Fun in Ms. Oberg’s Classroom and Superhero Writing and a Project! ✨📚









Week 33 was packed full of so many special moments! 💛
All week long, our teachers felt so loved by our students and our amazing Oregon Trail families. Thank you for supporting us and showing your appreciation—we truly love what we do!
Our fourth graders kicked off the week with Pioneer Days fun, fifth graders captured memories with their graduation pictures and got to tour South Hills Middle School, and our line dancers did an incredible job performing at Engage in Education. Our paras went above and beyond by popping popcorn for every student and giving teachers some extra work time (such a gift!). Students were also treated to 10 summer meal coupons from Burger King, and ICCU spoiled our staff with a delicious lunch for Teacher Appreciation Week.
We are so grateful to be part of such a supportive community. Thank you for loving and taking care of us! 💙

Week 33 started off strong as a school community! 💙
We came together to celebrate Poetry Month by listening to some of Mrs. Ferrara’s students share their poems—what a great way to kick things off! We wrapped up our assembly with an encouraging message from Ms. Schroeder and Mrs. Peacock: “Finishing strong with paws.” 🐾 They reminded students of our schoolwide goals and expectations, sharing a powerful message: “We want you at every activity. Your choices decide if you stay. We aren’t taking away fun—we are protecting it.”
Our kindergarteners had an exciting visit from the Twin Falls Fire Department 🚒, we kept the fun going with line dancing in the sunshine ☀️, and our 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders powered through and completed their final ISAT tests!
We’re so proud of everyone for continuing to finish the year strong!

Ms. Schroeder lives by a powerful mission: be curious, live with purpose, see the genius in others, and inspire change. She brings this mindset into everything she does—whether she’s playing pickleball, cooking, exploring, caring for her plants, making memories with her 5 boys, or leading our school with heart and vision.
Her passion for education shines through in every decision she makes, always putting students first. Oregon Trail is incredibly fortunate to have such a dedicated and inspiring leader.
Happy Principal Appreciation Day, Ms. Schroeder! 💙
