As we enter the final week before spring break, things are busy in the Knappa School District. High school sports are off to a good start with the baseball team’s decisive win last week against Warrenton and the softball team’s solid win in their game against Neah-Kah-Nie on Friday.

What a busy week it has been in our schools. This week we celebrated Classified Employee Appreciation Week, where we honored our bus drivers, kitchen staff, office staff, program assistants, custodians, maintenance employees, and our bus mechanic. They are key to our ability to educate students and keep them safe.

Thank you for your patience with us as we dealt with the school delays on Tuesday. It is an exciting week in Knappa sports. Last night, the boys’ basketball team beat Portland Christian in a “nail biter” by a score of 49 to 47 in the Northwest League playoff game. The girls’ team plays tonight against Vernonia. On Saturday, both teams will be playing in Vernonia in another League Playoff game. The state wrestling championships occur next week. Isabella Ramirez, Kiya Roe, Corbin Roe, and Donnie VanGundy will represent Knappa in the event. Best of luck to them in the tournament.

Our bond design team held our final schematic design meeting on Tuesday. Toward the end of this month, you will be invited to join us to take a look at the school design. We are wrapping up the high school athletic season. The basketball teams are preparing for post-season play right now, and the wrestlers will host the District Tournament on Saturday.

Welcome to a sunny and cool first day of February.We have a number of things happening in our schools right now. Elementary students are almost finished with their MAPS assessment, and for most students we are celebrating solid growth. If your students is still finishing up, please encourage them to do their best so we can accurately determine how to assist them during the second part of the year.

Dear Knappa Community, I hope that you had an enjoyable extended weekend. As a person who has spent a good portion of my life in the southeastern United States, I have seen significant movement toward Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King’s dream within my own lifetime. Hopefully, the Holiday both reminded you about the progress that has been made toward equity in our society, while also giving you a moment to pause on how you can contribute to a better society moving forward. Whether that is caring for somebody in need, confronting an unjust act, or donating to charity, it is my hope that each of us can use Dr. King’s legacy to make a difference.

I hope that the new year is treating you well. Aside from a little wind and power outage surprises, things are running smoothly in our schools. We are glad to have the students back for more fun and learning.
