Senior class trip recap; district reports $63,000 in scholarships to PHS graduates
Summary
A student representative described the senior class trip to Sunriver Resort and said scholarship award totals for Pacific High School graduates this year amounted to $63,000; the board praised holding a separate scholarship ceremony.
Shayla Carpenter presented the educational spotlight on the senior class' recent trip to Sunriver Resort near Bend, noting activities that included go-kart racing, swimming and attending a wrestling show.
Carpenter also described a change in the district's scholarship process: awards were presented before graduation this year to let grantors meet recipients and to provide students clarity about funds before commencement. "PHS graduates received a total of $63,000," the minutes state. Board member Bob Brown told the meeting he appreciated the separate scholarship ceremony so students who did not receive awards would not feel excluded.
The board briefly paused the meeting when a member (Bob Brown) left briefly; normal business resumed after his return. No action or policy changes were recorded with respect to scholarships or graduation logistics.
