The Dalles High School

By Tom Peterson

What do students in The Dalles need to succeed?

What investments should The Dalles make to ensure that we turn out well-rounded critical thinkers who contribute to their communities and have the tools to find their career path to ensure their employment and purpose?

The District is set to find out on Tuesday, March 1 at 6:30 p.m. as it launches its process to build a strategic plan for the D21.

School Board members are looking to go out for a school bond in the 2023 school year. 

“We all know our facilities are aging and in desperate need of some love and tender care. And we need some help with funding in that area. So, the 2023 school year is kind of their targeted date for making that happen,” said D21 Superintendent Carolyn Bernal in a recent interview with CCCNews.

“We are reaching out to the entire North Wasco County School District education community to join us on this exciting journey to help develop our vision for the next 5 years,” said D21 Spokesperson Stephanie Bowen.

Please join us tomorrow, March 1st at 6:30 pm at The Dalles Middle School Commons to hear from Superintendent Bernal about the launch of this process and upcoming opportunities to provide input in creating the future for our students, she said.
