Stanfield School District

We are so excited to be back to school and in person! We are working hard and following our plan to keep students safe and help mitigate any chance for COVID-19 to affect our ability to stay open. We are finding that our busses are at capacity making physical distancing on the bus harder to achieve consistently for the duration of the each route. We are looking at adjusting routes to accommodate the number of riders using the busses we have. Like every district in our region, we are still in need of more drivers. If you or someone you know is interested in becoming a bus driver, please contact the district office. Last year, many parents transported their students, and that was extremely helpful for lowering overall bus rosters and increasing available physical space for distancing on each bus. Some parents are able to consistently transport again this year, and we appreciate this greatly! Thank you for your continued support this school year. Go Tigers!

Welcome back! School begins for students on Monday, August 23, 2021. Attached to this post are the bus routes. Please have patience with us as we begin this new department. We are looking forward to this opportunity for our Stanfield students. We have also posted them to both the parent pages on each school's portion of our website. Should you have any questions, please contact your child's school. The contact number for Stanfield Elementary School is 541-449-3305 and for Stanfield Secondary School it is 541-449-3851. Thank you!

All Stanfield Schools and the District Office will be closed tomorrow morning. Please feel free to leave voicemails and/or send emails. We will respond as soon as possible. Thank you!

Stanfield School District Board of Directors regular monthly meeting will be Wednesday, August 11, 2021, at 6pm. We will be going back to in-person meetings. If you would like to join us for our meeting, we will be meeting in the Stanfield Secondary School Cafeteria.

All School registration, Tue. Aug 10th 8am-11am & 4 pm- 7pm at SES & SSS. Please plan to attend as we need EVERY student to update their records. Go Tigers!

Superintendent’s Message—August 3, 2021 The rule requiring masks for all individuals age 2 and older in indoor school settings is in effect now. You can read the bulletin from Oregon Department of Education at the following link: https://content.govdelivery.com/accounts/ORED/bulletins/2eb3b6d This means that students and staff participating in our elementary JumpStart program must wear masks in the building. Masks do not have to be worn outdoors. We will continue to advocate for local control in decision-making, but this requirement is not something we have the ability to change locally at this time. We will continue to update information as it is released. Sincerely, Beth Burton, Superintendent

Superintendent’s Message—July 30, 2021 A few weeks ago, I posted that masks would be optional this coming school year, and that time, masks were a local decision. We learned yesterday that Governor Brown is mandating masks for all people age 2 and older indoors in school settings. She directed Oregon Health Authority and Oregon Department of Education to create a face covering rule, and we will be required to follow it once it is adopted at the state level. School officials will be receiving more information about this Monday, August 2nd. I will share as many details as are available at that time. In the meantime, I want to acknowledge the frustration and disappointment that abounds in the community. I also want to appreciate the good things that are happening in Stanfield as we are preparing for full-day in-person learning for all students K-12. Our facilities are taking shape as construction is winding down. We are starting a district-operated transportation program and have purchased new busses. We have been busy over the summer working to be ready for this new school year. We are excited to have kids in the buildings next month, and we are so looking forward to serving them face-to-face and not through Zoom. Registration is August 10th from 8am-11am and 4pm-7pm. The first day of school for students is August 23rd. We will continue to post updates and regular messaging on our website and our Facebook page. As we have learned in the last year, information changes rapidly; we are doing our best to communicate as clearly and efficiently as possible. Thank you for continuing to support our students, staff, and schools. Sincerely, Beth Burton, Superintendent
