Preston School District No. 201

What Preston School District No. 201 does

Preston School District No. 201 (operating under the trade name Preston Joint School District #201) is a public K-12 school district headquartered at 105 E 2nd S, Preston, Idaho. As a political subdivision of the State of Idaho, it is a government educational entity rather than a commercial enterprise, providing free public education to students and families residing within its defined attendance boundaries. Its offerings include core K-12 academic instruction, special education programs, career and technical education, and extracurricular activities. Customers are K-12 students and their families within the district's geographic catchment; enrollment is assigned by residence rather than chosen by the household.

The district's primary digital product is its public-facing website at prestonidahoschools.org, built on the SchoolBlocks content platform with an integrated SchoolFeed module that handles news and event distribution. The website serves as the central hub for district information, board of education resources, Title IX compliance materials, staff resources, employment opportunities, bid opportunities, and family-facing links including free and reduced-price lunch applications and the Class of 2026 scholarship form. The district supplements its web presence with social media accounts on Facebook (@psd201) and Instagram (@psd.201) for community engagement and announcements. There is no mobile application, no public API, and no disclosed proprietary technology beyond the SaaS-based web stack.

As a publicly funded institution, the district does not operate a commercial revenue model: funding derives from the state education foundation program, local property taxes, and federal program funding, and revenue figures are not publicly disclosed. The district does not maintain disclosed patents, partnerships, fundraising rounds, subsidiaries, or M&A activity. Operating geographies are confined to Preston, Idaho. Current operational posture includes active recruitment for the 2026-27 school year across certified (e.g., Speech Language Pathologist, Elementary Teacher), classified (custodial, paraprofessional, transportation), substitute, and coaching positions, with disclosed hourly wages ranging from $12.50 for substitute teachers and IT support to $19 for bus drivers. Leadership in the input includes HR Director Tamara Harris as the named employment contact.
