Dear Parents and Students,
Due to the COVID interruption to school this year, the state of Oregon has approved extra funds for all students in grades K-12 to attend summer school. Summer school will be FREE for all students who wish to attend. For now, this extra summer school is a one-time event.
This extra summer school will be held in conjunction with our annual Migrant summer school. All students will attend and participate together.
In order to attend summer school, you must commit to the following requirements:
1) Commit to attend school each day from June 3-30 (20 days), Monday-Friday each week.
2) Be on time! Schedule is 7:30 am – 3:00 pm each day.
3) Commit to work hard and play hard. Areas of focus:
a. K-8 -- math, English, and science; hands-on learning, STEM, field trips, etc.
b. 9-12 -- credit recovery.
4) Be willing to transport your child to school if we are unable to find enough bus drivers to fill the need.
Please click on the link below to complete initial enrollment in the Nyssa Summer School for all. If you are already registered for Migrant Summer School, do not complete this form.

EN ESPAÑOL:
Según la Declaración de Derechos de Evaluación de Estudiantes, el Departamento de Educación de Oregón (ODE) y los distritos escolares de Oregón deben proporcionar a las familias con un “Aviso de Exámenes Estatales y el Formulario de Exclusión” 30 días antes del inicio de los exámenes estatales. Este año, la escuela se ha visto significativamente afectada por la pandemia de COVID-19 actual y otros factores. En respuesta, ODE planea solicitar al Departamento de Educación de los Estados Unidos una pausa temporal (también conocida como “exención”) en los exámenes de Artes de Lenguaje en Inglés (ELA, por sus siglas en inglés) y Matemáticas. También se está solicitando una pausa para los exámenes de ciencias, pero los exámenes de ciencias no están sujetos a esta regla de exclusión.
• Si se aprueba la solicitud de la exención, entonces los exámenes estatales de ELA y Matemáticas no se realizarán este año, y no será necesario que los padres presenten el formulario de exclusión a la escuela de su hijo/a.
• Si no se aprueba la solicitud de la exención, el período de exámenes se abrirá de 13 de abril de 2021. ODE actualizará a su distrito de forma regular con las noticias sobre la exención.
Aviso de 30 días para Exámenes Estatales y Formulario de Exclusión
**Por favor, devuelva este formulario a la oficina de su escuela.
