HERMISTON — The
Hermiston School District
Board of Education awarded
Kirby Nagelhout Construc-
tion Company the contract
for construction of the Rocky
Heights Elementary School
bond project.
T he compa ny w i l l
construct a new, larger
version of the elemen-
tary school, paid for by the
bond passed by voters in
2019. According to a news
release, Kirby Nagelhout
was the apparent low bid at
$23,390,000.
Superintendent Tricia
Mooney said in a news
release that the bid came in
about $3 million below initial
projections.
“Community members
can rest assured, with an
independent review by the
Bond Oversight Commit-
tee, HSD will appropriately
use community tax dollars
throughout the implementa-
tion of the November 2019
voter-approved bond proj-
ects,” she said.
The new Rocky Heights
will be a single-stor y
73,500-square-foot building
built to serve approximately
600 students, with 24 class-
rooms and various commu-
nal spaces, such as a library
and gymnasium. The project
also includes demolition of
the existing building, fenc-
ing, two new parking lots
with drop-off areas, a main
entry plaza, new play fields
and playground equipment.
The bid timelines were
staggered for the two
elementary school proj-
ects, to encourage bidding
by regional small- and
medium-sized businesses,
according to the release. Bid
opening for the new Loma
Vista Elementary School
planned for East Theater
Lane is scheduled for
Wednesday, March 17.
Loma Vista will include
the same square footage,
number of classrooms and
outdoor campus features
as the new Rocky Heights.
Const r uct ion of bot h
elementary school projects
will begin in spring and are
expected to finish during the
summer of 2022.
Prestige offers
fall-prevention
webinar
PENDLETON — Falling
at any age can be dangerous,
but falls are a leading cause
of injury for older adults.
Prestige’s McKay Creek
Estates invites community
members to learn how to
reduce the risk of falling at
home with a free, 90-minute
webinar on Thursday, March
18, at 1 p.m.
The webinar will be
hosted by licensed athletic
trainer and senior fitness
expert Adrian Cagigas, who
will explain the factors that
increase fall risk and provide
attendees with the tools and
resources they need to reduce
their risk of falling.
The risk of falling poses a
serious threat to older adults
and a greater threat to adults
living with dementia or other
cognitive impairments. In
fact, individuals living with
dementia are five times more
likely to fall than older adults
living without a cognitive
impairment. To help reduce
the risk of falling, Cagigas
aims to teach seniors and
their families how to protect
themselves, or a loved one,
by “fall-proofing” their
homes.
As a partner in active
aging, Prestige is dedi-
cated to offering programs
and resources to help older
adults enjoy active, healthy
lifestyles. RSVP for this
free fall-reduction webinar
at PrestigeCanHelp.com.
