Continued from A1
As of Tuesday night, there have
been more than 800 Bend-La Pine
students in quarantine over the last 10
days, said Julianne Repman, director
of safety and communications for the
district.
Every day of the week but Wednes-
day, students at the four major high
schools — Summit, Bend, Mountain
View and La Pine — will be released
at 1:35 p.m. instead of 3:45, according
to a letter sent to families Wednesday

Yong Bakos, an instruc-
tor and program lead of
OSU-Cascades’ computer
science department, also said
he hopes the university will
accommodate those with le-
gitimate exemptions. But as a
whole, he’s happy with man-
dating vaccinations for stu-
dents and staff.
“Requiring the vaccine
is surprising, but positive,”
said Bakos, who is fully vac-
cinated. “If we want to keep
our schools open, if we want
to keep the learning experi-
ence in the classroom, then
it’s important to make deci-
sions based on that collective
good.”
Steve Clark, spokesperson
for Oregon State University,
said the university will honor
legitimate exemptions. Al-
though there aren’t details yet,
university leaders are brain-
storming how to ensure all
students and staff on OSU’s
campuses either have been
vaccinated, or can prove an
exemption, he said.
“Throughout the fall term,
and leading up to winter term,
we will establish checkpoints
with students, faculty and staff
regarding either their com-
pliance in being vaccinated,
or evidence of an exemption,”
Clark said.
The vaccine mandate will
apply to Beaver student-
athletes and coaches, too,
Clark said. For the moment,
however, it will not apply to
visitors or students visiting
campus events, such as
football games in Corvallis,
he said.
morning from Nordquist.
During that two-hour stretch,
teachers will focus on students who
need extra academic support, or are in
quarantine, the letter stated. Students
who depend on the bus for transpor-
tation will stay on campus and partici-
pate in a supervised study period until
the buses arrive.
Wednesday schedules, which were
already a little shorter, will stay the
same for high schools, Nordquist
wrote. Bend-La Pine’s three magnet

OSU-Cascades/COCC vaccine clinic info
OSU-Cascades, Central Oregon Community College and and
Deschutes County Health Services will be hosting a series of pop-up
vaccine clinics, starting next week, intended for staff and students
of the institutions.
Students and staff must sign up for the clinic in advance through
an online link provided to them, according to OSU-Cascades
spokesperson Christine Coffin.
Here are the dates, times and locations for the clinics, with two
clinics at each school:
OSU-Cascades
May 17, 10 a.m.-2 p.m.
June 7, 10 a.m.-2 p.m.
A major reason why OSU
leaders decided to mandate
vaccines is to help increase
COVID-19 immunity in Ore-
gon, Clark said.
As of Monday, about 43%
of Oregonians had received
at least one vaccine dose,
according to the Oregon
Health Authority. Deschutes
and Benton counties, where
OSU’s main campuses are lo-
cated, have higher-than-av-
erage vaccination rates, with
48% and 55% of their respec-
tive populations receiving at
least one dose.
However, those numbers
Marshall — will retain their current
schedules entirely.
The district’s five large middle
schools — Sky View, Cascade, High
Desert, Pacific Crest, Pilot Butte
— will have distance learning on
Wednesdays only, starting Monday,
Nordquist wrote. Schedules will re-
main the same for the other four days
of the week.
Middle-school staff and admin-
istrators are still hashing out exactly
what at-home Wednesday school will
look like, Nordquist told The Bulletin.
Smaller middle schools —

plummet for younger, col-
lege-aged residents. Only
11.5% of Oregonians in their
20s have received the vac-
cine, according to state data.
That number is much higher
in Deschutes County, where
over 40% of residents in their
20s have received at least one
vaccine.
To make receiving the vac-
cine easier for local students
and staff, OSU-Cascades and
Central Oregon Commu-
nity College will be hosting
vaccine clinics starting next
week, in collaboration with
Deschutes County Health Ser-
REALMS Middle School, Three
Rivers and La Pine — will not see a
change in their schedules.
The only reason middle schools ar-
en’t cutting two hours per day like the
high schools, is because busing sched-
ules are difficult to change this late in
the school year, Nordquist said.
Elementary school schedules will
not change.
Nordquist said cutting back on
in-person learning was an extremely
difficult decision, and she does expect
some angry feedback from families.
“There is not a typical year that
vices.
However, despite partner-
ing with OSU-Cascades on
the vaccine clinics, COCC
does not plan to mandate vac-
cination for students and staff
this fall, said college spokes-
person Jenn Kovitz.
This is for a couple rea-
sons, she said. Some COCC
students live in rural parts of
Central Oregon, where vac-
cines are harder to access. And
other students work full time,
also decreasing availability,
Kovitz said.
“Our student population is
very different than OSU-Cas-
cades’,” Kovitz said. “For rea-
sons of equity and access to
higher education, we’ve made
the decision we’re going to
strongly recommend, not re-
quire (vaccines).”
OSU is not alone in man-
dating vaccines this fall: West-
ern Oregon and Portland
State universities will also re-
quire vaccinations, according
to those institutions’ websites.
The University of Washington
and Washington State Univer-
sity recently announced the
same.
However, the University of
Oregon is not requiring the
COVID-19 vaccination for
students, although the univer-
sity highly recommends it, ac-
cording to its website.
Representatives from East-
ern Oregon and Southern
Oregon universities, along
with the Oregon Institute
of Technology, all said their
respective institutions were
still deciding whether or not
to mandate vaccinations this
fall.

there isn’t backlash about a decision
(we make),” Nordquist told The Bulle-
tin. “We’re really trying to think about
what’s best for staff and students.
Keeping that as the north star is really
important.”
The possibility of students return-
ing to a full-time schedule will depend
on COVID-19 case counts moving
forward, Nordquist said.
“I hope that things keep getting bet-
ter in terms of case counts, but I don’t
know,” she said.
