Governor Kate Brown announced a statewide closure of all Oregon K-12 schools from March 16th through March 31st.  All Schools in the North Bend School District will follow this directive and will be closed March 16th through March 31st.  School is currently scheduled to resume April 1st.  Follow us on Facebook, Flash Alert and the district website at www.nbend.k12.or.us for further information.

Governor Kate Brown today set new rules to slow the spread of COVID-19 in Oregon. She issued Executive Order 20-05 which outlines rules addressing large gatherings and social distancing. Governor Brown also issued guidelines for workplaces, schools, care facilities, and other community-wide mitigation efforts to help protect vulnerable and high-risk Oregonians and to protect our state’s health care system capacity. The measures are based on the recommendations of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Oregon public health experts, epidemiologists, and health professionals.

The measures are based on the recommendations of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Oregon public health experts, epidemiologists, and health professionals.

Here are the new guidelines for schools:

• In addition to previous guidance from the Oregon Health Authority, schools should, to
  the extent possible, cancel or limit all non-essential gatherings and group activities,
  including but not limited to:
  • Group parent meetings and parent education activities;
  • Field trips;
  • Competitions;
  • Concerts and plays;
  • Arena-based conferences;
  • Group trainings and professional learning activities.

*These recommendations apply whether or not the activities are specifically sponsored by a
school or school district.

Schools should also:

• Limit interscholastic athletics and activities to student participants, essential
  personnel, and credentialed media. This recommendation includes any
  organized youth athletic programs, club sports, intramural activities and
  competitions, whether or not they are affiliated with or sponsored by a school
  or school district;
• Coordinate with and make this information available to all onsite partners
  (preschools, childcare centers, afterschool programs, etc.);
• Consider staggering recess and lunch periods to reduce the number of students
  coming into close contact with each other.
• Students at high risk for severe illness should consult with their health care providers
  about specific steps to lower their risk of illness.
• School district employees and students, volunteers and visitors who are ill should stay home until their fever is gone and symptoms are better for at least 24 hours to stay
  home.
