✨ Grateful for Our Generous Community ✨
Each year, we are amazed by the kindness of our community. This school year, we’ve received generous school supply donations from the SKP Park of Sutherlin, private donors, J Lindeen Brown State Farm Insurance, and First American Title. 🎒✏️📚
These donations go directly into the hands of our students and teachers—helping to fill backpacks, stock classrooms, and support our student-run Care Closet. The impact is immediate and powerful: more students with the tools they need to learn and thrive.
Thank you to everyone who continues to show up for our schools with boxes, bags, and backpacks full of supplies. What a wonderful community we live in. 💙🐾
We made it through the first week! 🎉
Our hallways and classrooms are full again, and it feels great to see students ready to learn and grow. Thank you for your patience as we navigate new bus routes, build routines, and practice new skills (including our “no phones” policy).
As we head into the weekend, just a few quick reminders:
Bus Routines: Expect a little extra time as routes continue to settle. Thank you for your patience at drop-off and pick-up. Schoolwide Routines: Students are already showing growth in adapting to classroom expectations and transitions.
Devices: Please help us by reinforcing our no-phone policy at home—it makes a difference for focus and connection during the day.
We are grateful for our students, staff, and families. Here’s to a strong start and an even better year ahead! 💙🐾

💙🐾 Welcome Back, Sutherlin! 🐾💙
From kindergarten to senior year, our first week was filled with smiles, friendships, and fresh starts. We loved seeing brothers and sisters, new friends, and solo smiles—all ready for an amazing school year.
Our classrooms and hallways are full again, and it feels so good to have our students back! Take a look through the collage—so many happy faces (and see if you can spot the one little grumpy gus hiding among the smiles 😉).
We are so grateful to live, learn, and grow in this community. 💫 Thank you, families, for sharing your amazing kids with us—we love having our students back!
Here’s to a bright 2025–2026 school year, Go Bulldogs! 📚✨

One of the greatest joys of working in a school district is watching our students grow up right before our eyes. From the excitement of kindergarten to the pride of graduation, it is a true privilege to walk alongside them throughout their K–12 journey. Every year brings new milestones, challenges, and celebrations, and we are grateful to share in those moments with our students and families. Have a great year, Riley!
