Boise High Students Enjoy Memorable Field Trip at the State Capitol with Rep. Church

Boise High students had a truly memorable experience at the Capitol last week with former BHS teacher, Representative Monica Church. The students were spoiled with a personal, behind-the-scences tour. Khalid and Zulaikha even expressed interest in working there! To see it in person really created a connection. The tunnels were a hit, too. Smiles all around!
