Pickup: K-2 students line up in front of the building and are picked up at their Cougar paw if parents are walking up. If you are in the pickup line, please continue to pull forward to fill any gaps and make sure your “yellow card” is in the front window with the student's first name and the teacher's name. This helps the staff to radio for each student. If you have siblings, the older siblings will line up with the youngest sibling. 3-5 students are picked up on 2nd Ave. Parents are asked to pull up to the curb for students to load safely. 3rd grade is located closest to the stop sign of H and 2nd. 4th grade is located in the middle of the block. 5th grade is located closest to the intersection of I and 2nd. Illness: If your child is ill, it would be best to call the office before sending them to school. The secretaries will ask you a couple of questions to determine if it is safe for your child to come to school. We will also work with the school nurses in some situations. This will help us to keep all students in school this year. Thank you all for giving us the opportunity to educate your children! We will continue to navigate the COVID pandemic as best we can and communicate the information out to you. If you have any questions, please give us a call at 541-663-3500. With appreciation, Mrs. West

"Kindergarten is such an essential point in a child's social, emotional, and cognitive development. Certainly, our teachers focus on exposing students to foundational literacy and numeracy skills, but above all else we want students to feel excited about learning, to interact with other children, and to understand how to participate as a part of a school community." - Ryan Westenskow, Principal, Greenwood Elementary
