Discussion Continues: Teachers, staff and union representatives asked for help from school board members in dealing with students with behavioral issues at The Dalles public schools. Educators have seen an uptick in behavioral problems that started at the beginning of the school year and have continued into March with little change, according to school staff at the meeting. 

After multiple unfair labor practice violations, Mid-Columbia Center for Living (MCCFL) has reached an agreement with Oregon AFSCME and the workers at MCCFL who are in the midst of bargaining their first contract after their union was certified in July.
