Boise schools near Idaho Capitol to close off campuses next week over inauguration protests Jacob Scholl, The Idaho Statesman Jan. 15—In anticipation of armed protests at state capitol buildings around the country next week regarding the presidential inauguration, the Boise School District is employing safety measures at schools near the Idaho Statehouse. Dan Hollar, public affairs administrator for the Boise School District, said in an email Friday that the district will keep students on campus at four locations: Boise High School, North Junior High School, Longfellow Elementary and Washington Elementary. Hollar said Boise High will have a closed school campus on both Tuesday and Wednesday, meaning students will not be permitted to leave during school hours, including lunch, unless approved ahead of time. Parents can choose to keep students at home if they so choose, he said.
