Good afternoon Beaverton, We have another COVID positive case with more contact tracing situations that will cause us to close school for face to face learning until Monday, November 30, 2020. We will begin virtual learning on Monday, November 16, 2020. We are hoping that this forced isolation will allow us a return to face to face learning on Monday, November 30. We beg everyone to stay safe & healthy through the Thanksgiving holiday. Please be reminded of our food pick up on Mondays from 1:30 to 2:30pm and from 4:00 to 5:30pm behind the Junior Senior High School.

Here is the link for this week's Beaverton Schools' Superintendent Report from Mr. Passalacqua. Please stay safe to our hunters and hopes of everyone remaining healthy. https://5il.co/n1wt

Good evening Beaverton, I am writing today to notify you that we have had a couple more situations that will cause us to close school for face to face learning on Monday and Tuesday, November 16 & 17. Monday & Tuesday will be virtual learning via Zoom, Google meet, etc. Also, the district buildings and offices will be closed for Friday, November 13.  We are still holding out hope for a return to face to face learning on Wednesday, November 18. However, we cannot have our numbers rise anymore. We beg everyone to stay safe & healthy.

Good evening Beaverton, Our scheduled half-days on Thursday & Friday will now change to a full district closure. We were informed of two more positive COVID 19 cases in the Elementary. Our cleaning crew has been notified and decontaminating the area. Closing the buildings will allow us to contact trace before any return to school on Monday, November 16th. Staff is asked to report as scheduled. Parent Teacher conferences will be conducted virtually on Thursday, November 12, 2020 from 1-4pm and 5-8pm. The teachers will be meeting online with families individually. This will allow us to keep our distance but have private conversations. Please be patient and understanding as we attempt something a bit different from the norm. Volleyball team will still travel to Manton for the Regional Final. #GoBeavers

Veterans Day is a time for us to pay our respects to those who have served. For one day, we stand united in respect for you, our veterans. Happy Veteran's Day!

Thank you to the City of Beaverton for decorating our administration office! A great way to get in to the holiday spirit! #GoBeavers

Enjoy the last day of summer weather!

Good afternoon Beaverton, We understand that the school closure has many individuals concerned and wondering what is happening. Throughout the day, we have been notified of two additional situations that caused us to contact trace more individuals due to exposure to a positive COVID 19 case. We have been in contact with our local health department as it pertains to our situation. After thorough investigation, we have chosen to reopen the schools for Face to Face instruction on Tuesday, November 10, 2020; except for the following classes: Young 5's classroom will be virtual Kindergarten--Mrs. Revis' classroom is virtual 2nd Grade--Mrs. Smith & Mrs. Born classes are virtual All of 7th Grade classes will be offered virtually All classes that are listed as virtual learning are asked to NOT REPORT to school. These classes will have further communication coming from the building principal. If your class is not listed as virtual, then your class will be resuming as normal tomorrow. We understand that this may be an inconvenience for some folks, but we want to continue offering our quality educational programs in a face to face environment as much as possible. Thanks again for your understanding and cooperation.

This afternoon, a Beaverton employee notified us of their positive COVID-19 diagnosis; along with the news that a Beaverton parent tested positive as well and their children were in school. This will cause numerous staff and students to be quarantined for a period of time that is still unknown. We plan to decontaminate the buildings and continue our contact tracing throughout Monday. The schools and/or the Health Department will be notifying which students and staff need to be quarantined. With that being said, Beaverton Schools will be closed on Monday, November 9, 2020. Once again, we plead with the community to keep your children home when they are not feeling well. Parents/guardians are reminded to screen your children daily before sending them to school. We will have more information coming out on Monday with another announcement. Thank you for your continued patience and understanding. Staff are expected to report unless you are notified to quarantine.
