Repairs to the middle school gymnasium are underway. We’re hopeful the main gym floor will be usable sometime next week, though the locker rooms and second floor will remain closed for now. Our goal is to return to full use of the space within about a month. Go Bulldogs!

They take time out of their busy lives constantly and consistently to do whatever it takes to keep our kids and our staff safe, secure and happy, and our district healthy and moving forward.
Most importantly, their decisions , guidance and hard work makes it possible for all our district staff to do what we do best: nurture and develop lifelong learners who are knowledgeable, responsible and caring citizens.
Thank you, School Board! We couldn't do it without you!

Hello 8th Grade Families!
In June we will take the 8th grade students on a trip to the Hellgate Jetboats in Grants Pass. This is to celebrate their hard work in middle school. Since we want to honor the hard work and good behaviors they have demonstrated there are some requirements for the trip.
The requirements are:
80% Attendance for entire year
No F in core classes for second semester AND no more than 2 F's total across all classes for second semester.
No OSS all Second Semester and no ISS last 9 weeks.
No more than 10 referrals for the entire school year
No more than 15 tardies for 2nd Semester
We wanted to start making you aware now. As the end of the year gets close you will be notified if your student is in danger of not going on the trip.
Go, Bulldogs!
Students may only have food that has been checked into the office by a parent or guardian. Thanks for your understanding.
Happy New Year from the Sutherlin School District!
As we step into 2026, we’re grateful for our students, families, staff, and community. A new year is a fresh start—full of hope, growth, and opportunities to learn, lead, and care for one another.
Reminder: School resumes on Monday, January 5th at 8:00 AM.
Wishing you a safe, joyful New Year and a strong start back to school! ✨
Merry Christmas from Sutherlin Middle School!
We hope this Christmas Day offers time to recharge, reflect, and connect with family and friends. Our students continue to amaze us with their resilience and growth, and we are grateful for the strong support of our families and community. Wishing you a peaceful and joyful holiday.
