Spirit Day and Assembly - December 15th
On Friday, December 15th, our Spirit Day will be Winter Wonderland. Students can dress in colors that represent snow (like white, light blue, sparkles), snowflakes, or winter weather clothing. We will also be having an assembly at the beginning of the day focused around gratitude.
Fire Drill This Week
This week, our school will conduct a fire drill. We cannot share the exact date or time of the drill. The purpose of a fire drill is to practice the response to a fire inside our school. Staff will prepare students for the drill and support individual students as needed. We expect students to follow their teacher's instructions and walk quietly out of the school to the assembly area. The drill will end with an "All Clear" announcement. Staff will escort students back into the school at the end of the drill. Learn more about safety drills and the Standard Response Protocol on our website. If you have questions, please contact the front office.

Dining Night Out on Wednesday, December 13th, at Panda Express in Cornelius.

SafeOregon. Feel Safe. Be Safe.
All kids should feel safe and be safe at school. SafeOregon gives kids, parents, schools, and their communities a way to confidentially or anonymously report safety threats or potential acts of violence. Together, we'll empower people to speak out and spark change. One tip can save a life.
Every Student Belongs
If you believe a bias incident has occurred, there are two ways to report the incident, our HSD Mobile App and Oregon Safe. These incidents could be student to student, student to staff, or staff to student.
