Dear Spray Community,
As we reflect on this year, I want to take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude for your unwavering support of Spray School District. Your dedication to our students and their education is at the core of what makes our district so special.
Your involvement, whether through volunteering, cheering at events, or simply offering a kind word, has a profound impact on our ability to provide meaningful opportunities for our students to learn, grow, and succeed. It is your encouragement and partnership that enable us to move forward with confidence and purpose.
Thank you for believing in our mission and standing beside us in all our efforts. Together, we continue to build a brighter future for our children and community.
Wishing you all a joyful holiday season and a wonderful New Year.
Sincerely, Lou Lyon
Regular School Board Meetings have been changed to the second Wednesday of each month. They will continue to be held at 7 PM unless otherwise specified.
"Earlier yesterday, we distributed an announcement regarding re-opening the bidding process for a surplus school bus. The announcement indicated we had not received any bids during the initial bid period. Upon further review, it has been determined that a bid was received before the bid period had expired; therefore, the Board of Directors is obligated to review that bid prior to making a determination about the surplus bus. The Board is scheduled to open and review the bid on Thursday, May 16th at 6:00 p.m. Any bids received as a result of the announcement of re-opening the bidding process will be returned to the individual/entity submitting the bid.
We apologize for any confusion caused by our failure to identify the initial bid as having been received within the announced bid period."
Wheeler County Community School is looking for an after-school program site coordinator.

Spray School has a curio cabinet, call Robin 541-256-6187 if interest. Taking all offers, first come first serve you must haul.
Basketball Update: Unless something weird happens Friday or Saturday, the girls will be in the 2nd place spot on our side of the district and the boys will be 3rd. That means the boys will most likely be traveling to Horizon Christian in Hood River on Tuesday next week for a 6:00 game. The girls will host Dufur in Spray on Wednesday night at 6:00. Win or go home for both of them.
If we win, the boys would travel to Dufur on Thursday for a 6:00 game. The girls would go to Trout Lake on Friday for a 6:00 game. The finals will be in The Dalles on Saturday. (3rd place games and Championship games) Top three from each district along with 8 wild card teams (based on OSAA rankings) will continue in the state playoffs. The gate for the home game on Wednesday will go to the district to pay the officials. The prices for all the district games is set at $8.00 for adults and $5.00 for students. Visit OSAA website for schedule and updates. - Dennis Starr A.D.

Dear Spray School District Families and Community,
As we approach the festive holiday season, I want to take a moment to extend warm wishes and heartfelt greetings to each and every one of you. It has been a remarkable year filled with challenges, triumphs, and, most importantly, the resilience and strength that define our vibrant community.
As Superintendent of the Spray School District, I am continuously inspired by the unwavering commitment of our students, dedicated faculty, supportive families, and engaged community members. Together, we have navigated through unique circumstances, adapting and growing stronger as a collective force for education and positive change.
The holiday season is a time for reflection, gratitude, and connection. It offers us an opportunity to appreciate the bonds that tie us together and the shared commitment to the success and well-being of our students. Whether you celebrate Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, or other traditions, may this season bring you joy, peace, and moments of togetherness with loved ones.
As we look ahead to a new year, let us carry the spirit of unity and collaboration that defines our community. Our schools are not just places of learning but hubs of support, encouragement, and growth for every student. Your involvement and partnership in this journey are invaluable, and I am grateful for the collective effort that propels us forward.
Thank you for your continued trust and partnership in the education of our students. I wish you all a joyous holiday season, a restful break, and a New Year filled with hope, prosperity, and success.
Warm regards,
Lou Lyon
Superintendent
