Nyssa Elementary PTO put on another GREAT carnival last night. Thank you to Naomi Rich, Lori Schulthies and all the other parents and teachers and high school students who planned, hosted and cleaned up this wonderful community event! Go Bullpups!
NHS Families,
At Nyssa High School attendance is the number one reason our students become frustrated and fail classes. We know that at times covid has made regular attendance difficult. We need your help. Please do all that you can to help your student attend each day. When they are unable to attend due to covid, please have them attend by zoom. If your student is absent from school, please contact our office at 541-372-2287. Thank you! Mr. Jackman

Valley Family Mobile Vaccination Clinic is returning on Tuesday, September 7, 2021 from 3pm-4:30pm in the High School parking lot.
I plan to try and get them here often, but with current changes, they are filling up with clinics quickly. I had hoped for a Friday date, but this will not be possible with their schedule. If someone is needing their 2nd shot and would prefer a Friday date, the Mobile Unit will be in Ontario at the Albertson's Parking Lot from 9am-3pm.
Boosters are not yet available, but I will make an announcement when they are.
Under current quarantine guidelines, individuals that are fully vaccinated (14 days after their 2nd vaccine or after taking 1 J&J) are not required to quarantine unless they test positive.
Individuals that are 12 and over are eligible (minors having parental consent) for vaccinations through the Mobile Unit.
If you have any questions, please let me know.

There has been some concern by parents and students that the governor's recent outdoor mask mandate would apply to students at school. This is not the case. The new mandate applies to gatherings outside of school when social distancing is not possible. Schools are allowed to follow the previous rules that allows students to remove masks outside while on school grounds.
El nuevo requisito de la gobernadora en llevar mascaras afuera no se aplica a las escuelas. Los estudiantes todavia pueden quitar la mascara durante las horas de la escuela cuando estan fuera de los edificios del distrito.
