Last nights awards banquet was a perfect ending to wrap up winter sports. Shout out to all the student-athletes and coaches who have dedicated their time and effort to make this season so successful.
Best of luck to Echo Middle School Student, Averi Fisher. She will be competing this Saturday (3/12) at the Oregon Girl’s Middle School State Wrestling Tournament. The tournament is being held in Woodburn.
Oregon Health Authority, in collaboration with Oregon Department of Education, has sent iHealth antigen self-tests to all Title I schools in Oregon to be sent home with students. These tests represent one strategy to increase access to testing resources in our school communities.
We have received enough tests to distribute one test kit (containing two tests) to each student. Keep watch in your student(s) backpack for a kit containing these tests, along with an instructional flyer. Students and their families are encouraged to use these tests if they develop symptoms consistent with COVID-19 or who have had a known exposure to COVID-19.
In addition to these tests, there is free drive through testing at St. Anthony's on Wednesdays, 11:00-2:00.
Thank you and stay healthy!
The High School Winter Sports Awards Ceremony will be this Thursday, March 10th at 6:00 in Pioneer Hall. All high school winter sports participants are encouraged to bring a dessert.
