WWW.HEPPNER.NET Heppner athlete Hallee Hisler was selected to participate in the Oregon Athletic Coaches Association 10 th Annual All- Star Volleyball Match, held Saturday, June 21, at East- ern Oregon University in La Grande. The event featured senior volleyball players from 1A to 4A schools across the state. Hisler joined athletes from a wide range of Oregon commu- nities in the annual showcase, which drew a strong turnout and competitive play. Selection for the tournament is based on performance and contributions during the high school volleyball season. With successful bond votes in the Morrow, Sher- idan, Tillamook, Lincoln County, Tigard-Tualatin and Portland school districts earlier this month, more than 100 school districts have now leveraged local tax dollars with matching funds from the state through the Oregon School Capital Improvement Matching (OSCIM) Program. Since the program began in 2016, OSCIM has added $494 million to the $10.3 billion in bonds voters approved, allowing school districts to do more to improve schools without adding to the taxes paid by property owners. “Upgrading facilities and providing students and educators with the criti- cal equipment they need directly impacts student learning and growth,” said ODE Director Dr. Charlene Williams. “This program allows communities large and small, from Astoria to Ontario, to dramatically amplify local funds with multimillion dollar state funds to meet local school needs.” Before submitting an WWW.HEPPNER.NET Submit News, Advertising & Announcements Letters To The Editor Send Us Photos Start A New Subscription Print & Mailing Services *Design *Print Sykes Publishing 177 N.

ODE makes commitments ahead of elections so districts can inform their communities of the potential for addition- al funds from the state if the local bond passes. OSCIM grants are up to $6 million for most dis- tricts, with some receiving up to $12 million. Morrow County School District received a $6 million grant to offset its $210,400,000 project budget, resulting in a $204,400,000 bond. MCSD estimates that Amazon will pay about 38 percent of the remaining bond, with other industrial and public service compa- nies contributing an addi- tional 34 percent. Awards are calculated using an OSCIM Funding Formula, and districts are awarded grants based on their position on the Priority List or First in Time List. Details are available on the ODE website. *Mail 541-676-9228 Broker Chris Sykes 541-215-2274 Reduced Price For Sale!
