The high school hosted an accreditation visit on March 12th.  We had ten people in the building who were associated with AdvanceEd, the accrediting agency that has oversight for accrediting schools in most of the states in the US and many schools around the world.  The visit was the culmination of all of our preparation in providing information about every facet of the high school.  Of course the goal and the expectation is that the high school retains it status as a fully accredited Oregon school.  Many parents completed the fall online survey as a way of providing feedback about the school and it's programs.  The visit went well and we are expecting a full report from the agency in the next month.  We will share the outcome of the report in the next couple of months.  Thank you to those of you who contributed to this important process.

Students in grades 8-11 will begin the scheduling process for next school year on April 9th.  Students will have a week to get their schedules submitted and we will provide reminders to those who fail to meet that deadline.  In the end, if a schedule is not submitted by the due date we will contact the student during the school day and meet with them to have them complete a schedule.  If we can not meet with them, we will complete a schedule for them.  It is imperative that we have all students scheduled into classes by May 1st.  We are then able to adjust class sizes and look at creating or deleting sections to maximize our resources before students and staff leave for summer break.

Spring sports continue thru May and we hope for a warm and dry spring.
