About Amity Elementary School:

Southwest Boise was one of the few areas of Boise to experience a building boom in the early to mid 1970s. The area grew so fast that a building moratorium was put into effect by the Ada County Planning and Zoning Commission. Maple Grove and McKinley Schools became overcrowded. For the first time in the decade, there was a need for a new school.

The original Amity School opened in 1979. It was a model for school construction nationwide because of the use of solar energy and earth cover. The school’s design was featured in the June, 1979 issue of Intermountain Contractor. Amity won several awards for its energy-saving, efficient design.

Amity was rebuilt in 2018 after the passage of a bond to reinvest in neighborhood schools and communities. The original Amity building was plagued with leaks that were difficult to fix because of the earthen roof.
