Don’t toss those picture packets just yet! 📸 Even if you didn’t purchase school pictures, each packet from Barksdale includes a secure image card on the back with your child’s photo. These cards are great to keep on hand in case of an emergency. They provide a current picture that can be shared with law enforcement if ever needed. Check the back before you recycle!

¡No tires todavía los paquetes de fotos! 📸 Aunque no hayas comprado fotos escolares, cada paquete de Barksdale incluye una tarjeta con la foto de tu hijo/a en la parte posterior.

OSAA Foundation Enhancing the future of Oregon High School Activities October 1, 2025 To: Dan Durfey, Umatilla High School From: Peter Weber, OSAA Foundation President RE: Kristie Patterson Fund Hope that this letter finds you well. Included with this letter is a $1,000 check from the OSAA Foundation on behalf of the newly established Kristie Patterson Fund. Per our conversation on the phone, this fund was created to memorialize a long-time employee of the Association who lost her battle with cancer in 2022. The OSAA Foundation and programs like the Student Assistance Program were very important to Kristie because they directly impact students' lives and help them break down barriers to participation that many take for granted. In addition, she was born and raised in Easter Oregon and the schools in that area always held a special place in her heart. We are very proud to present this check to Umatilla High School on behalf of the OSAA Foundation and in Kristie's honor. An OSAA Foundation representative will be following up with you later this year to learn how the funds were spent and how they helped students in your community thank you again for your application! If you have any questions, please let me know.
Join us for the Drama Club’s Play Production!
Performances will be held November 20–22 at 7:00 pm at Umatilla High School.

The Drama Club will present “12 Angry Jurors”, a play in three acts by Sherman L. Sergel, adapted from the television show by Reginald Rose.

After a six-day murder trial, a 19-year-old defendant’s life rests in the hands of a jury — twelve ordinary Americans doing their best to uphold the Constitutional right to a fair trial. However, not everyone agrees on the fate of the boy, tempers get short, arguments grow heated, and the participants become Twelve Angry Jurors. Adapted from the Emmy award-winning television movie, 12 Angry Men, this drama is presented in three twenty-minute acts.

Content Warning: This production explores mature themes of prejudice and violence and is recommended for audiences ages 12 and up. Some simulated knife violence is depicted.

¡Acompáñenos en la presentación teatral del Club de Drama!
Las funciones se llevarán a cabo del 20 al 22 de noviembre a las 7:00 pm en Umatilla High School.

El Club de Drama presentará “12 Jurados Furiosos”, una obra en tres actos escrita por Sherman L. Sergel y adaptada del programa de televisión de Reginald Rose.

Después de un juicio por asesinato de seis días, la vida de un acusado de 19 años está en manos de un jurado: doce personas comunes que hacen lo posible por defender el derecho constitucional a un juicio justo. Sin embargo, no todos están de acuerdo sobre el destino del joven; las tensiones aumentan, los ánimos se encienden y los participantes se convierten en Doce Jurados Furiosos. Adaptada de la película televisiva ganadora del premio Emmy 12 Hombres en Pugna, este drama se presenta en tres actos de veinte minutos cada uno.

Aviso de contenido: Esta producción aborda temas maduros de prejuicio y violencia y se recomienda para público de 12 años en adelante. Se incluye una breve escena con violencia simulada con cuchillo.

We appreciate the parents and staff who alerted us to a concerning Facebook post this morning. We have reported the concern to the Umatilla Police Department. Please support modeling appropriate social media usage for students. When safety concerns exist, https://www.safeoregon.com/ is a way to report things immediately (24 hours a day, 7 days a week) to both police and school staff at the same time. Reports can even be anonymous. Sharing unconfirmed allegations is potentially cyberbullying. Reporting concerns through appropriate channels helps protect student safety.
