June 25, 2026 Community Update
Knappa School District No. 4 June 25, 2026 Superintendent Community Update Dear Knappa Community: Summer Fun. Yes, it is summertime, but great things are still happening in our schools. Our summer adventure camp is in its second week. Last week, the summer students went to the Portland Zoo, and this week, they are headed to OMSI. They are both learning AND having fun. Thank you to Cori Jones, Wendy Montgomery, Emma Mullins, Margie Fry, Deirdre Welch, Jayden Jasper, Cassandra Sederburg, Becky Gebhardt, Heather Tadei, Laura Schlip, and Jessica Stuhr, Jackie Whitten, Vanessa Ahl, and Sharon Olson for making this program a success. Pictured here, you can see students playing games to improve their math fluency skills and you can see a few of them at the zoo. Summer Library. Remember that the HLE Library and Libraries ROCC Book Vending Machine are open from 9-11 on Wednesdays. This is your chance to trade in the books you have been reading for the last two weeks and get some new ones! Consistent summer reading, and discussions about what we are reading are great ways to continue literacy learning (and have fun) during the summer. School Board Meeting. On June 17, the Knappa School Board approved next year’s budget. While there are some cost reductions to create efficiencies and associated with lower enrollment, we are keeping our overall program intact while at the same time eliminating two furlough days. This will allow for more learning days for our students. Many thanks to Jennifer Morgan for her leadership on the budget and helping us avoid some of the difficult decisions we have seen in other parts of the state with widespread layoffs. At the same meeting, the School Board approved a three-year agreement with Knappa Education Association (KEA), the union that represents our teachers. We appreciate the collaborative relationship Knappa School District shares with KEA. We were able to provide salary enhancements for our teachers and coaches within the budget constraints faced by the school district. Another highlight of the meeting was the honoring of Mylie Lempea. Mylie has served as the student representative to the School Board since 2024. In this role, she updates the Board on student happenings at Knappa High School, but also gives student voice to Board decisions. Mylie is also an accomplished athlete, ranking #3 on the all school basketball scoring list. She was the 2026 Valedictorian, having earned multiple college credits while in high school. She plans to major in mathematics at Pacific University in the fall. The Board appreciates Mylie’s service with the Board and wishes her well as she rises to the opportunities and challenges of the world. (Pictured: Cullen Bangs, Brian Montgomery, Hannah Bryan, Mylie Lempea, Michelle Finn, and Will Isom) Sign Up for Kindercamp, Kindergarten, and Preschool. We are excited to welcome our youngest learners to school for the fall. If you have an incoming kindergartner, please contact us to get your student signed up for Kindercamp which starts on August 3. This program will give students a running start into school. We also are enrolling 3 and 4 year olds in Knappa Early Learning (our school district preschool) for the fall. This program occurs Monday through Thursday (with a few Friday Field Trips), and helps children with social skills and early learning. We still have space and there are scholarships available. Please send a message to justusr@knappak12.org to get signed up today. With Appreciation. When the buildings are empty of students, our maintenance and custodial team are hard at work getting things ready for the fall. They take care of tasks like changing filters, lubricating HVAC systems, painting, cleaning up our grounds, deep cleaning classrooms, waxing floors, and addressing maintenance issues they can’t get to while school is in session. Randall, Jack, Sherri, Stan, and Kevin are those who address these preventive maintenance issues to keep our community’s facilities clean, safe, and in good repair. Their hard work is appreciated! The Start of School. Remember, school starts BEFORE Labor Day this year. Orientation is August 31st and the first day of classes is September 1st. Please plan accordingly. Click the calendar to view the 26-27 school calendar for any other planning needs. Knappa School District wishes you a restful and fun remainder of the summer. Sincerely, Play @ KCC!
