Dear Pendleton High School Parents,
We will be giving Pass/Incomplete final grades on June 4 when the semester ends.
If students were not passing on March 12, they need to continue to work in order to earn a full credit.
If students were passing as of March 12, they need to keep working until June 4 or until they complete the course in Acellus to earn full credit.
We want students to stay engaged in meaningful learning and cover as much content as possible through the end of the semester.
If your student has barriers to participating in distance learning, contact the administration immediately.
These are some strategies for staying aware of your students’ progress:
Look at their grades in Home Access.
For Math, Science, Social Studies, and Health 1 look at their Acellus account (we emailed user names and passwords on April 8).
Email teachers or counselors.
See our PHS website for teacher contact information and information about classes.
Call the administration at 541-966-3804 for usernames and passwords and any other questions.
Information to follow about Senior Drive Through Check-Out on May 4. Grades 9-11 drive through locker pick-up on May 5.
Take care of yourself and your family. Do not hesitate to call us if you have questions or need support.
Sincerely,
Melissa Sandven, Principal

Class of 2020 Graduation Ceremony
/in District Site News, Pendleton High News /by rthornburgPendleton High School will be conducting its graduation ceremony on Saturday, May 30th. Due to the pandemic impacts and social restrictions that are currently in place, this year’s ceremony will be different from year’s past, in particular, we will be utilizing a “drive-thru” strategy. There is a limit of one vehicle per graduate to the presentation of diplomas that will take place at the Round-Up Grounds. Despite these historic times, we are excited to be able to honor our graduating seniors in the Class of 2020.
Although final details are still being determined, graduates and families should expect to receive instructions for the 30th within the next 5-7 days. Please contact the school directly with any questions at 541.966.3804.
Pendleton FFA Plant Sale
/in District Site News, News - District & All Schools /by rthornburgThank you for your interest in supporting the Pendleton FFA Chapter through our Plant Sale! While still in school the students worked hard to get these all going. This was not what we expected in the end, but we are pleased to still share our greenhouse and plants with you.
Due to the limited restrictions, the greenhouse will not be open for you to pick out your plants. I have provided this order form to help you get what you would like and support the Pendleton FFA Chapter.
Plant Sale pick-up day is May 6th from 11-1 (following social distancing protocols). Here is the Order Form link and inventory list link.
Thank you for supporting our students!
