Leadership plans spring blood drive and sports events at College Hill

The Corvallis School Board meeting on March 20, 2025, highlighted several upcoming events and initiatives aimed at enhancing student engagement and community involvement. Among the key discussions was the planning of a blood drive, along with activities such as flag football and boys' volleyball, scheduled to take place after spring break. This blood drive marks the second of the year, following a successful first event that saw high turnout.

In addition to the blood drive, the meeting touched on community support for local initiatives, including a farm stand located behind College Hill, which operates on Fridays. This stand is expected to attract attention, particularly for its popular offerings.

The meeting also featured a presentation on the progress of the 21st Century Grant, which has enabled the school district to implement various programs. Emily Peterson, a teacher and coordinator of the after-school program, was introduced to provide updates on the grant's impact.

Public comment was briefly addressed, with no community members speaking during this segment. The meeting concluded with anticipation for the developments stemming from the grant and the upcoming events designed to foster school spirit and community participation.
