Controversies

In 1992, the school caught the attention of the American Civil Liberties Union for displaying a nativity scene in a school hallway. The scene contained two-inch tall figures and was arranged by the school's student council. The ACLU argued that the display was a violation of the First Amendment to the United States Constitution, which guarantees separation of church and state.Associated Press. "ACLU stirs up fuss over tiny nativity scene". "The Deseret News". 24 December 1992.]

The school also received criticism in 1993 for holding its graduation ceremonies at Ricks College, which is run by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. A school board member claimed that the ceremony would be uncomfortable for students who were not Mormons. [Associated Press. "Idaho high school to hold graduation at LDS auditorium". "The Deseret News". 26 December 2003.] The ACLU had fought with the school district in the 1980s to move its high school graduation from a Mormon church building to a public school.
