-Understand what families can expect during a safety incident, including district communication, and how decisions are made to protect students.
-Gain confidence in reunification procedures.
-Ask questions, offer feedback, and help us strengthen student-centered safety systems that reflect community needs and values.
-Build partnership—because when schools, families, and first responders share language, expectations, and relationships, students are safer and better supported.

We're Hiring

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.
