Annual State Testing Update Every year all public schools are required to perform testing to gauge student growth over the academic year and proficiency by graduation. This year is no exception. While the State of Oregon is requiring students complete annual testing, it will be a modified and shortened test due to the Covid-19 pandemic and its affects on schools and students. Instead of testing in 4 areas they will be testing in two, and each test has been reduced by approximately 40%. At this time students in grades 3-11 will test in Math on Tuesday, April 27th. Students in grades 8-11 will test in Reading on Thursday, April 29th. For further information, please contact Lead Teacher and Testing Coordinator Norma Barber

Phone System Update - As many of you know, the school and community phone system has not been working properly for the past few weeks. Ukiah School's system is affected and at this time the only working inbound number is (541) 427-3085. The issue has been a focus of efforts from both Century Tel, the school, and City. The failure is either between Carney Butte and Pilot Rock and/or Pilot Rock and Portland. For the time, we will ask that those needing to contact the school call the (541)427-3085. When the issue is resolved or we learn more, we will let everyone know. Thanks for your patience.

National Library Week! New books and movies are added frequently - come check out your public library to see what is new!

We still have a few pine car blocks available for parents or community members to pick up and turn into a amazing race car. If you are interested in participating in the pinewood derby on April 15th and need a car - come grab a car kit!

Absolutely wonderful to see that big yellow bus full of happy students rolling down the road to grand learning opportunities! Its been a long year!

Baker City or Bust! Ukiah Students will be traveling on the first school trip of the year Tuesday, March 30th.
