If your student is in need of a required vaccination, MCHD has agreed to provide these vaccinations at the clinic on the 10th of February. Please contact adewitt@nyssasd.org to sign up by February 9th at 4pm. A count is required to be provided so they know how many and what vaccinations to bring.
If your student is in need of a required school vaccination, please make sure to update your student's record in their school office after they have received it. Thank you.
If you have any questions, please let me know.
Have a great weekend,

NHS Basketball Fans,
If planning on traveling to Riverside for games tomorrow, the weather and roads have been terrible this past week. Schools in this region have only held school two days this week. Tomorrow, Friday 1/7 is supposed to bring better weather but there are no guarantees. If there is a cancellation we will send out another notification as soon as the decision is made.
Please also know that the mask mandate in the state of Oregon for indoor facilities is still in effect. Riverside is using a zero tolerance mask monitoring policy. If you are failing to wear your mask you will be asked to leave the facility. They will not be giving warnings or multiple chances.
Due to a shortage of officials, Riverside is struggling to find officials for the game. Currently they are trying to find JV officials for tomorrow's game. If they are successful in finding an official, please show your appreciation by remaining positive, not directing comments to the officials, and demonstrating good sportsmanship.
We appreciate your support of our athletes. Thank you!
