Dufur Families,
This is just a reminder that there is no school for students tomorrow. There will be a staff in-service as teacher prepare their grades for 1st semester and 2nd quarter. Have a wonderful weekend!
Mrs. Mead's 5th-grade class has been studying Early American Civilizations—Maya, Aztec, and Inca—as part of their reading curriculum. They created hand-painted, papier-mâché Maya masks. On their class hallway bulletin board, you’ll find the students’ codices. Each student chose one codex topic—farming methods, architecture, or social classes—to compare and contrast across all three civilizations. Then, they created their own version of a codex to display their writing. A codex is an ancient manuscript typically written on tree bark or animal hide. This project is a challenging, cumulative unit, and students have worked hard to hone their informative writing skills.
Please join us for the Jerri Walker DePriest Spaghetti Feed on January 24th when the Rangers will be hosting Spray Mitchell Wheeler for basketball action!

It looks like Mr. Henderson will be splitting the rest of his tenure as Superintendent between Dufur and D.C.! It also looks like he's chosen a solid cabinet. Safe travels to our D.C. group as they head home today!
They're off! We wish our high school Washington D.C. group safe travels as they begin their once-in-a-lifetime experience to visit our nation's capital and witness our Presidential Inauguration.
