Good morning, Jewell! Happy December 8th to you all. Yesterday the OSAA released a highly anticipated update related to the 2020-2021 OSAA calendar year. Due to the ongoing public health situation, they have extended the current season one workout and conditioning window up to February 21st. Season two will run from February 22nd through April 4th and will offer the traditional fall sports. Due to additional safety concerns and protocols, high school football will be allowed to begin practice on February 8th. Season three will be our track and field season and will last from April 5th through May 16th. Season four will offer basketball and will run from May 10th through June 20th. All game schedules are being redone. All OSAA culminating week activities are yet to be defined. An updated season one team workout schedule will be released no later than December 30th. I have a CASCO meeting today, an OSAA meeting tomorrow, and a Columbia-Pacific meeting on the 14th and will keep you all updated as quickly and as best I can. I apologize for these continuing changes and appreciate your flexibility and support. And one day we really will all be able to again yell GO JAYS!
Be on the lookout as Gingerbread Houses will soon be 'for sale'! All 3rd - 5th-grade writing students have created their own unique gingerbread house, and are writing an opinion paper about why their gingerbread house is the best one to buy. This may all be for fun, but be assured, after reading their work you will be convinced that candy cane staircases, cookie kitchens, and gumdrop rooftops are irresistible.
Congratulation to the Jewell 6th grade ELA classes. You have completed successfully your first quarter as middle school students.
GO BLUE JAYS!!!
