What Bonneville School District 93 does

Bonneville Joint School District No. 93 (D93) is a public K-12 school district and political subdivision of the State of Idaho, headquartered at 3497 N Ammon Rd, Idaho Falls, Idaho. The district operates 26 schools — 16 elementary, 4 middle, 6 high (including 2 fully online programs and Technical Careers High School) — serving more than 13,000 students in the Idaho Falls area of Bonneville County. Governance is provided by an elected Board of Trustees (currently chaired by Carissa Coats) with day-to-day administration led by Superintendent Scott Woolstenhulme; the district employs between 1,001 and 5,000 people.

The district delivers a full K-12 instructional platform spanning traditional classroom instruction, online learning (Bonneville Online Elementary School, Bonneville Online High School, Bonneville Online Academy), Advanced Opportunities for college credit (AP, dual credit, Jump Start, GEM, Fast Forward), a Spanish Dual Language Immersion program at the elementary level, and career-technical education through Technical Careers High School. Underlying technology is a modernized, vendor-orchestrated stack: Microsoft 365 across 85 servers, PowerSchool for the student information system, ParentSquare for family communications, ClassLink for SSO, Veeam for backup/recovery, Scale Computing hyperconverged infrastructure (replacing VMware), Sora/OverDrive for digital library, ReadySub for substitute management, TimeClock Plus for HR timekeeping, and Applitrack for hiring. Support services include a district-wide 1:1 Chromebook program and a Child Nutrition program recognized with the USDA Healthy Meals Incentives Award (2026).

The revenue model is public-funding-based: state education funding tied to student attendance, local property taxes, an annually-renewable supplemental levy (subject to voter approval), and federal financial assistance. Additional non-tuition revenue is collected through paid school meals and an optional Voluntary Chromebook Protection Plan. The district has no shareholders, no parent company, and no subsidiaries; ownership rests with the public and is overseen by the Board of Trustees under Idaho law. Recent financial pressure — a fund-balance drawdown exceeding $10M, enrollment decline, and attendance-based state funding — has prompted staffing reductions and a planned supplemental levy increase request.

Direct peers

• Connections Academy: National operator of tuition-free online K-12 public schools, including Idaho-Connections Academy, which directly competes with Bonneville Online High School and Bonneville Online Academy for online-enrolled students in Idaho.
• Idaho Falls School District 91: Adjacent K-12 public school district serving Idaho Falls. It is the district explicitly named in the Bonneville Joint School District 93 "Idaho Falls-Bonneville District Consolidation Study," making it the most direct peer and the most relevant comparison for enrollment, funding, and program structure.

Others

• ClassLink: Single sign-on and rostering platform used across D93's digital learning resources. A core enabling technology partner rather than a competitor, but a meaningful comparable for K-12 identity and access infrastructure.
• PowerSchool: Vendor of the student information system (PowerSchool SIS) used by D93. Not a competitor, but a tightly integrated technology partner whose product roadmap, pricing, and data strategy materially shape D93's operational capabilities.

Broad incumbents

• Stride (formerly K12 Inc): Large publicly traded provider of online K-12 learning programs and curriculum, operating multiple state-branded online schools. A broad incumbent peer in the online K-12 space where D93 also competes via Bonneville Online.
• Boise School District: Idaho's largest K-12 public school district. Useful as a larger-scale benchmark for operating model, program breadth, and budget dynamics within the same state funding environment.

Regional players

• Twin Falls School District: Mid-size Idaho K-12 public school district serving the Twin Falls area. Comparable regional peer facing the same state funding model, demographic pressures, and need for CTE and online program offerings in a non-metro Idaho setting.
• Nampa School District: Large, fast-growing Idaho K-12 public school district serving the Nampa area. Comparable in program mix and in facing the same state-level budget and attendance dynamics, but distinct in being on a growth rather than contraction trajectory.
• Idaho Digital Learning Alliance: Statewide Idaho nonprofit providing supplemental online courses and Advanced Opportunities to K-12 students. Adjacent to D93's Advanced Opportunities and online school offerings, and a partial competitor for supplemental online enrollments.
• Pocatello/Chubbuck School District 25: Another mid-size Idaho K-12 public school district serving the Pocatello area. Comparable in scale and rural-Idaho operating environment, with similar reliance on state attendance-based funding and a comparable mix of elementary, middle, and high schools.
