School Scoop

Dear Families,

The Medford School District wants your thoughts on cell phones in schools as the School Board considers possible changes to current policy. Your feedback will help guide the decision-making process as they evaluate the policy.

Please take a moment to fill out this brief survey (Spanish version). Students will be completing their own survey in school. You can find more information, like the timeline and links to research on the topic, here: https://msd549c.com/CellPhones.

Thank you for your time!f

Subject: Actualizaciones de Políticas de Teléfonos Celulares: Su opinión es Importante

Estimadas Familias,

El Distrito Escolar de Medford quiere saber su opinión sobre los teléfonos celulares en las escuelas mientras la Junta Escolar considera posibles cambios a la política actual. Sus comentarios ayudarán a guiar el proceso de toma de decisiones mientras evalúan la política.

Tómese un momento para completar esta breve encuesta (versión en español). Los estudiantes completarán su propia encuesta en la escuela. Puede encontrar más información, como la línea de tiempo y enlaces a investigaciones sobre el tema, aquí: https://msd549c.com/CellPhones.

Gracias por su tiempo!

Three Cheers for the students in grades 3-5 who are competing in Oregon Battle of the Books this school year. Below is a list of the books they will be reading.

We value the different perspectives our students and families bring to our community! With the election coming up, we want to remind everyone that our goal is to provide a safe, respectful, and supportive learning environment for all students. This is a great opportunity to help students learn how to express themselves responsibly.

We ask for your support in teaching students to engage in respectful and positive ways, focused on learning and understanding.

Our staff will continue to ensure that classrooms and schools remain safe and that students' rights to free speech are respected. We are committed to helping students learn how to have thoughtful conversations that respect others, even when they disagree.

Feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns.
