Due to very poor air quality, we are forced to cancel Jr. High football practice tonight, Tuesday, September 7th.
We are planning on starting tomorrow if the AQI allows. Players will meet in front of the High School and ride the bus out to Westridge. Parents will need to pick up their athletes at 6pm in Westridge.
FYI release buses are running at least 15 minutes late. Sorry for any inconvenience.
We are very sorry for any inconvenience this morning. Buses are on the way to pick up students. If your child does not get picked up please call and we will ensure they are brought to the school.
At this time we are short bus drivers and must run Route D late for at least the first or two day. Bus D will run one hour late in the morning for the first days of school. We are sorry for the delay. Once we have run the routes the 2 days, we will know how many riders thee are and can rearrange routes if possible. Thank you for your patience as we navigate this temporary shortage.
If you decide to transport your child in light of the delay, please call First Student to let them know your child will be riding so they are counted in the total number on the route. 541-782-3090. We are still experiencing trouble with our voice mail. Therefore if you are unable to leave a message, please call 541-782-2813 and we will take the information.

Therefore, the Oakridge Football game vs Vernonia will be moved to Pleasant Hill High School. The game begins at 7:00. If applicable, please adhere to any personal quarantine or isolation orders. Thank you for helping us keep our kids in school and our athletes in play.
We are monitoring the air quality for the football game tonight. As of right now, the football game is still on for 7pm tonight. If we need to cancel it, we will post the cancelation as well as text our families.
