Since it began eight years ago, Sandpoint High School’s Application Week has been a roaring success.
Jeralyn Mire, secondary transition counselor at Sandpoint High School, said the high school piloted the idea of Application Week after reading about other states that had successfully implemented it.
Mire said that, after SHS picked up Application Week, the state of Idaho adopted the idea and it became a statewide initiative. Now, the State Board of Education makes a concentrated effort to have students have a spot safe for them at a secondary school in Idaho.
