Lyyich Terrace students come to Heppner
From April 13 to April JO a (roup
of eigh th g ra d e rs fro m Lynch
Terrace Middle School and thnr
teacher. Dave Olcott. traded places
with a sim ilar group from Heppner
Jr High
Olcott describes the program as
a tremendous learning experience
for all "
Kach year, he says, is
unique Because different kids and
different parents are involved, an
unknown is built into the program
Some kids who are introverted at
home will blossom in a different
environment
This is the fifth year of the
program which he and Don Cole.
Heppner Elementary School prin
o p a l originated following Olcott's
experience working with senior high
school students during the summer
at Topper
W e’ve been fortunate
Olcott explains because last year
was the first time we had a young
ster who was completely shocked by
the change in physical environment
from the green, rainy, suburban
area to the d ry , flat farmland
Cole and Olcott use profiles which
the students fill out and their
acquaintance of the student to
match visiting students with similar
students in host fam ilies
Just to
sec the kids learn in a different
environm ent" is reward enough to
continue the program, says Olcott
In our suburban area kids are
"im pacted with so many things
Kads are more readily accessible A
m ajor m ovie complex, and video
arcade are within walking distance
of the school and these can have a
negative impact on the student
population They're available here,
but kids have to go more out of their
way to find them
"This communtiy has lieen fan
fistic. Olcott continues The under
standing and patience shown the
kids in the school environment and
from the host parents and total
community involvement with the
school has made this experience not
just an isolated week, but has
established friendships, wich for
some of the kids, now seniors, who
were »m nnr the first to participate
in the exchange which have con
tinued between families
Four of the ltudents from Lynch
Terrace were heartily in agreement
with their teacher Hav ing formerly
considered Eastern Oregon as a hot.

Before we left,
kids would scoff.
How fun now

she wasn't sure she d like o move

be nice to live in eastern Oregon

experience was loading I.OOO sheep
into a big diesel He pointed out that
it was necessary to keep the lambs
separate from the larger animals so
that they wouldn't la* crushed
We
look the sheep about 10 miles away
to another pasture It took all day
All agreed that it would la- hard to
