As a result of the State of Oregon’s decision to make masking a local decision in K-12 schools beginning March 12th, the Joseph School District Board has voted to make mask wearing optional for staff and students. Joseph School District is committed to providing a safe and respectful environment for all students and staff, regardless of whether they choose to wear a mask or not to wear a mask.

Joseph School District will have a special board meeting tomorrow March 10th, 2022 at 5:30 PM in the Food Science room to address the ending of the mask mandate in schools.

REMINDER!! This Friday, March 11th will be a make-up SCHOOL DAY.

Out with the old...and in with the new! The Imnaha Bridge School playground is looking just a little bit different, and the kids are SOOO excited...even though the equipment arrival seems to have brought a February blizzard with it! It didn’t stop the kids! They just pulled on their snow pants and raced for the slides!! A HUGE thank you to everybody involved in making this happen...Brooke and Cody for instigating the project and making a generous donation...the spontaneous “tear down” crew...and the Joseph School Board and Administration for EVERYTHING!! You guys are amazing! Thank you, thank you!! This structure will bring so much joy for years and years!! ❤️❤️❤️
