The Ambrose School
History
The Ambrose School opened in 1995 in Boise with three students under the name "Foundations Academy." The first graduating class was in 2006, when it had a total enrollment of 220 students. That year it renamed its high school to St. Ambrose Christian High School. Then, in 2008, the school became The Ambrose School, encompassing grades K-12. In 2009, The Ambrose School moved to its present location at 6100 N. Locust Grove in Meridian. The school had 544 students in grades K-12 in 2016.
The new campus was designed by Wayne Thowless, of LKV Architects. It was built in phases, the third phase beginning in 2012. With a designed capacity of up to 500 students, it features 25 rooms and labs, a regulation gymnasium, a playing field, a playground, and a "dramatic two-story library".
