"Safe School Hotline" for 509-J In order to assist in providing a safe learning environment for stu dents attending the school in Jefferson County School District, we have created a "Safe School HOTLINE". We are encouraging the publica tion of the phone number to parents, students and community members. Following is information about the HOTLINE. Purpose: To allow students and the community the opportunity to control, monitor and report activities within and around the school that may put themselves and others in danger. How does it work: When students, parents or community members ob serve, witness or hear of a potential danger occurring in the school setting, they report it to the HOTLINE phone. A phone has been designated to record the calls from the students that an administrator will screen and act upon accordingly. The caller can leave a name if they wish to have feedback or they can remain anonymous. Phone number: 475-0390 If you have any questions re garding this new procedure to assist in making a safer environment for the students of Jefferson County Schools, please contact me at 475-7265.

I wish them luck in school and hope they plan on coming back to Forestry next year." Trudy Bennett, "The kids are all ready for it, the kids I know. The Summer Youth Workers were great this year and they're looking forward to returning (the one's I've talked to) and work next Summer.

Their dream is now a reality since they purchased Charley's Market to become their home. They were on a day trip to Mount Hood with their church youth group. Sam doesn't know how to ski so he went to Kah-Nee-Ta Resort instead. On his way there he saw the for sale sign on Charley's Market. He told Alicia about it and they came back to get a closer look and entered their bid in the silent auction. Alicia says, "It was constructed the same year we were married, the same year we dreamed of owning a log ' home." Their new house will be moved to Astoria where Sam operates Hess Contract Falling, Inc. skies and summer breezes cooled Central Oregon' s temperatures down, just in time for The Museum At Warm Springs "3rd Annual Huckleberry Harvest."

My favorite activities at school are Track, PE, Music and Math." Travis Wells "It's been a long summer and I hope they're anxious to go back to school. My oldest boy is looking forward to going back to school now and to participating in sports at the middle school. He wasn't able to last year as a fifth grader.

A lot of them are having hard times at home, and school is an escape for them. I feel bad because a lot of the parents don't help them.

Harold Pennington, "I feel as if classes are starting early. It's been a short summer and I havn't been able to see my kids as much as I wanted to. Because of this nice warm weather we are having, it's been nice spending time with them before they return to school. Too bad classes start next week instead of after Pendelton Round-Up." . h ..1 mmi- I it riz. t f , -t t - , , , , , , , , !
