2026 SHAPE Idaho Grant Recipients

Tim Olson

Deary High School - Deary, ID

“Deary High School received a 2026 SHAPE Idaho Grant and purchased some new cycling helmets for PE classes to enjoy. In the past few years the program has revitalized our bicycle inventory, but were badly in need of some updated helmets. With these new helmets the program will be able to provide safer, well-fitting, high visibility helmets to our high school students as they enjoy exercise outdoors during our biking units. Thank you SHAPE Idaho!”

Chris Meyer

Moscow, ID

“The SHAPE Idaho Travel Grant was used to represent SHAPE Idaho while attending the SHAPE America National Convention & Expo in Kansas City. The grant supported my efforts to advocate for quality physical education, connect with health and physical education professionals from across the country, and bring back valuable resources, ideas, and professional learning opportunities to support HPE teachers and improve student wellness and instruction. Thank you SHAPE Idaho!"

Melissa Plumeau

Boise, ID

“This year I was honored to present two sessions at the SHAPE America National Conference held in Kansas City: Basketball & Beatz and Transforming Secondary Health Education with Team based Learning. Through these sessions, I was able to share practical strategies that help educators create learning environments where students are not only active, but connected, confident, and genuinely engaged in the learning process. The grant I received from SHAPE Idaho helped to offset travel expenses, and was greatly appreciated. See you all in October!”
