There are many questions about who can attend the football game on Friday. The answer is that 300 people can attend: including officials, players and fans. Families of home and visitor players will be the priority, then additional fans after that. All player families have been provided a link to our contact tracing system for pre-admission. If you require a handicap parking spot to watch the game please contact Mr. Henderson. Our goal is to ensure that our athletes have the opportunity to play all 6 games this season. Tim Fain will be live streaming action on our Facebook page, and Y-102 will broadcast the game.

Dufur's unique hybrid schedule makes for excellent opportunities to take small groups off campus for enriching activities that make memories and build relationships among students and staff. Today, Mrs. Wilson and Mrs. Hertel took 6th graders sledding out of Dufur, Mrs. Anderson took 8th graders on a walk around downtown The Dalles to view and study historical murals, and Mrs. Darden took 7th graders on a hike to the Mosier tunnels. It was a beautiful day to enjoy the sunshine!
