Sauvie Island School

Back to school! Students started the year with a community assembly, our traditional Ms. Ferris SIS trivia round and a round of musical chairs.

Rain or Shine!! SIS staff learning about native plants in the downpour at Wapato with the amazing Jane Hartline.

SIS Family & Friends, In preparation for the start of school, Chef Brodie placed our food order from our regular vendor and was notified that all the vegetables he needed for the salad bar were "out of stock." We know many SIS families and friends have gardens, and we hope you might be able to donate some vegetables to the school. Chef is looking for lettuce/greens, cucumbers, tomatoes, bell peppers, carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, etc. If you have vegetable donations, please bring them to the Welcome Back BBQ on Wednesday, August 30th, at 5:30 PM. If you cannot make it to the BBQ, you are welcome to drop off vegetable donations at the school on Thursday, August 31st, between 8 AM and 4 PM. Thank you in advance for all your help and support! We are looking forward to seeing everyone soon. SIS

Attn: SIS 6th-8th Grade Families, SIS students in grades 6th-8th are invited to participate in athletics at Scappoose Middle School. This is a great opportunity for our students and we encourage them to consider participating. The following options are available this fall: 6th - 8th grades: Cross Country & Dance (fees apply) 7th - 8th grades: Football & Volleyball Transportation to the Middle School: In the afternoons, SIS students can ride the PM shuttle buses from SIS to the middle school, arriving before practices begin. In addition, we are able to provide busing to the middle school on “away” competition days, when it is necessary for the athletes to depart early from the middle school. Please be aware parents are still responsible for picking up their athlete(s) after practices and competitions at the middle school. Parents always have the option to contact each other to organize carpooling if necessary. If your student is interested in participating please follow the link below. https://scappooseschooldistrict.rankonesport.com/New/NewInstructionsPage.aspx SIS Staff

The SIS Welcome Back BBQ is coming on August 30th at 5:30 PM! All families are encouraged to come to the BBQ. It is a good time to meet new families, connect with friends, and chat with the staff. It is a great community-building opportunity. We will have some chairs and tables set up; however, we encourage families to bring a picnic blanket or chairs and find a spot on the grass. The BBQ will begin at 5:30 p.m. At 6 PM, we will gather under the covered area for introductions of new staff and make announcements about any updates regarding the beginning of the school year. Then we will enjoy Chef Brodie's delicious food! We look forward to seeing everyone at the BBQ. SIS Staff
