Ranger Athlete Parents: It isn't too early to get your child's sports physical for fall sports. Remember football players need a current physical each year. Volleyball players need a physical every other year. The OCH Mobile Medical Unit will be on campus twice this month: May 3rd and May 17th, from 10 am to 4 pm. To make an appointment for a sports physical, or for any other reason, go to https://www.onecommunityhealth.org/news/school-based-health-services
In celebration of National Leadership Week last week, DHS's National Honor Society put on a leadership scavenger hunt. One of the tasks was to take a selfie with students from other grades. Our younger kids enjoyed interacting in a positive way with our high school students, and our high school students loved getting to know some of our younger kids. One submission was drawn for a cash prize, and senior Emma Coleman was the winner!
Last day to donate to our annual Walk-a-thon! Thanks to our amazing students and community we have already reached our goal and we would love to reach $10,000!

Dufur students have been learning about different careers and having great opportunities for community members to share! Today members of the Dufur Volunteer Fire & Ambulance visited. Students were able to learn about the responsibilities of EMS workers, see the inside of an ambulance and the equipment they use, and ask lots of questions.
