The effects of WA state s COVID policies on K-12 students and schools has been, and will continue to be, a very hot button issue. Understandably so. This includes their extracurricular activities.
However, the forgotten story has been what s happened in middle schools, at least in our area. Grades 6-8 are among the most, if not THE most, transformative years in a child s life. Development experts say the habits, beliefs, attitudes and behaviors a child molds in these years often stick with them the rest of their life.
It s also the time when many discover and develop their interest or passions in music, arts, athletics, and other activities.

Spring Break Travel
In general, the College discourages students, faculty, and staff from traveling during spring break (April 24 – May 2). Staying on campus or close to Ashland will help to limit transmission of the COVID-19 virus, increasing the chances that our community can stay safe and successfully complete the academic year.
If you must travel, students should complete a COVID-19 travel request if heading beyond a 40-mile radius of Ashland. Each request is evaluated by a team for risk assessment and appropriate follow-up is communicated to each student. It is crucial that students submit travel requests in advance, so that required protocols can be determined and communicated. Submitting a travel request does not mean travel has been approved. Self-quarantine, quarantine, or isolation periods may interfere with May Term courses scheduled to start May 3. Not all courses may be able to accommodate physical absences from classes.
