This is a message to let families know that the health department will be coming Tuesday, November 3rd to give flue shots and vaccines. If you would like your child to receive a flu shot or have needed vaccines, please fill out a consent form located in the high school office with a copy of OHP or a copy of both sides of the insurance card. Students will be taken out of their afternoon classes to have the vaccine given. Unfortunately, parents cannot join students for this. If you have any questions, please contact Stacy Bingham. Thank you.

Tomorrow, Wednesday October 21st is our early release. School will be out a bit after 3 and buses will run around 3:15 p.m. We use this time for professional development for our staff. If you have any questions, please call the office. Thank you!

Middle School games will now have a charge of $2 per person for those five years and older. We apologize for this, yet the increase of cleaning requirements and having to hire multiple people to referee and take care of contact tracing, this is the step we need to take.
We are in need of substitutes for cleaning, in the kitchen, as well as in the classroom. If you are interested in getting on our substitute list, please call Mrs. McGinn or Mrs. Turner. 541.898.2244 ext. 8821 or 541.898.2373. Thank you!

For those of you who are picking up your child, please read. Pick-up is in front of the old school. We really need all parents/guardians staying in your vehicles and driving in front of the old school. You can pull into the parking area, we will then send your child to your vehicle, and you can leave. For a variety of reasons and safety, please do this. If you have any questions, please contact the administration. Thank you!
7th & 8th Grade students need to have a permission form signed to go off campus at lunch. Parents, please fill out and return this form.
