Mario Salana, presenter, delivered a monthly spring update for Milton‑Freewater Unified SD 7, announcing that spring sports have just begun and outlining a schedule of upcoming student events and activities.
Salana said spring sports kicked off this past Monday and thanked community members who have supported the programs. He announced a drama performance that will visit younger students to encourage participation in future drama programs.
He told listeners that "Walawa Wala U" (as reported in the transcript) will host a college‑campus visit for high school students today, with counselors escorting students to the event. Salana also encouraged parents to attend conferences scheduled for the 11th and 12th so students can explain their classroom work to families.
Student activities highlighted include a Key Club "Walk of Warmth" on the 14th to raise funds for student backpacks; a choir concert on the 17th and a band concert on the 18th; and the choir's planned competition at OMA in Pendleton. Salana said the FFA state convention is slated for March 19–22 in Redmond.
He also announced a Sadie Hawkins event on the 20th from 8 to 11 p.m. and mentioned a test on the 31st described in the transcript as a "clip test" that would support bilingual students in earning between 12 and 24 college credits by passing a referred‑to "KIPP test." The transcript uses those terms; the precise names of the test and the college‑credit program were not clarified in the update.
The district will observe Classified Week, honoring classified staff with daily recognitions and items provided in the staff lounge by certified staff. Salana closed the update by thanking attendees and saying, "Go Pioneers."
