The health fair event featured food, games, prizes, health screenings and entertainment. Pendleton, Riverside earn bronze in national high school ranking East Oregonian Pendleton High School and Boardman’s Riverside Junior/High School were awarded bronze medals in U.S. News & World Report’s Best High Schools rankings this week. Both schools were among the top 6,517 in the country ranked in the analysis, which surveyed 21,000 public schools. The schools were ranked based on their students’ assessment scores and college preparedness. Condon High School and Arlington Community Charter School also received bronze medals. “Our district is proud of Riverside on being awarded this distinction,” Morrow County Superintendent Dirk Dirksen said in a statement. “Whenever a school is recog- nized as highly successful, it is a testament to its dedicated teachers, staff and students and a celebration of our K-12 learning system,” A little goodwill goes a long way, but Pendleton will have to wait a little longer for a Goodwill of its own. Ken Gosney, executive director of Goodwill Indus- tries of the Columbia, said Monday the nonproit has put on hold plans to open a thrift store at the former Pendleton Cinema. But a location in town is still a possibility. With Oregon’s minimum wage set to rise over the next several years and Washington considering a hike of its own, Gosney said Goodwill won’t make any expansions while it igures out the impacts of the wage increase and other rises in operational costs. Gosney said Goodwill isn’t against a higher minimum wage, but wants to look at how it will impact its 400-person payroll. “We are a very labor intensive industry,” he said. Pendleton’s distance from Goodwill Industries of the Columbia’s head- quarters in Kennewick would also add additional cost. When Goodwill bought Pendleton Cinema in July 2015 for $600,000, it looked like the development could revitalize the aging theater. While a Goodwill oficial said the new store could be inished as soon as the irst quarter of 2016, there was little activity beyond a few Goodwill signs posted on the building. In June, Pendleton Fire Chief Mike Ciraulo announced that Goodwill elected not to proceed with the store and was willing to sell the property to the city for a new ire station for $550,000. Despite the downtown property’s potential for better response times, the Pendleton City Council decided to pursue the old St. Anthony Hospital site on Southeast Court Avenue instead. Gosney said Goodwill will test the market to see if it can ind a new buyer while acknowledging that the building still needs a signiicant amount of work to become viable. “I don’t imagine it will be a quick sell,” he said. At the time of the sale, Pendleton Cinema owner Bruce Humphrey said the property had been on the market for eight years. Whether it’s at the theater site or a new one, Gosney said Goodwill still wants to open a store in Pendleton and could revisit the idea a few years down the road. In the meantime, Good- will is putting the vacant property to use by relo- cating its collection trailer from the Wal-Mart parking lot to the theater parking lot. Gosney said local Wal-Marts recently realized the trailers’ presence in the parking lot was against corporate policy, necessi- tating the move. Goodwill Industries of the Columbia is one of 165 territorial agencies operating under the larger Goodwill umbrella. It runs eight stores and an outlet across Washington and Oregon, although Hermiston’s store remains the only Oregon location in the system. ——— Contact Antonio Sierra at asierra@eastoregonian. com or 541-966-0836.
