OHS Hathchery Receives Fish
This week, the Onalaska High School Aquaculture Program received 102,000 Coho Salmon from the Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife Skookumchuck Fish Hatchery. They are planned to be released to Gheer Creek on April 1st. They will, hopefully, return in 3-4 years.
The Coho are located in the net pens on Carlisle Lake alongside 35,000 Steelhead and 10,000 Rainbow Trout. Students will be feeding and taking care of all the fish in these net pens. If you are interested in watching the feeding process, please contact Kevin Hoffman at the Onalaska High School.

April 14, 2021 COVID-19/Return to School Update:
![]() Dear Parents and Guardians of Onalaska Students: I am more than happy to announce that we will be bringing back all students for face-to-face learning beginning Monday, April 19, 2021. Based on the Department of Health guidance dated March 25, 2021, we are now allowed to have classrooms where students only need to be 3 ft. apart instead of the 6 ft. we have been using since the beginning of the school year. This allows us to accommodate more students. We have had to make some adjustments in student schedules and placement of desks/workstations, but our staff has done a great job in making these adjustments. I have attached the information that we will be following in order to make this adjustment in student schedules. It is critical that we continue to follow the guidance in order to keep students and staff safe and healthy. One of the biggest changes is we are now asking you, as parents and guardians, to monitor the health of your students prior to them coming to school. The new guidance allows for you to make the decision whether to send your student to school or not. Please, be mindful of the Covid-19 symptoms and keep your student home if they exhibit one or more of the symptoms listed on the attachment. We can make this work, we just need your assistance. As always, if you are keeping your student home, please notify the school so that the absence can be excused. Also, if you or your student has tested positive for Covid-19 or has been exposed to someone who has tested positive, we still need to have you contact Catie Werner or me to let us know. We still need that information for contact tracing. I have been very proud of the work our staff has done in making school safe. I am equally proud of the support from you, our parents and guardians, in supporting our efforts to provide an educational program that is unlike anything we have done before. We have a long way to go to get out of this pandemic, let’s just hope that when we do finally get back to the way things should be, we never have to do this again. Our staff is excited to have all students back on Monday the 19th. Let’s finish the year strong and hope for a better situation when school starts up again in the Fall. Jeff Davis Superintendent April 19, 2021 Returning All Students, Monday. Here is guidance for the return of all students on April 19, 2021. Some of these will be a work in progress as we make adjustments to our schedules and class sizes.
Here are the health screening criteria, from DOH, that need to be asked each day before sending students to school: Does your child have any of the following: Fever (100.4 or higher) or chills Headache Cough Recent loss of taste or smell Shortness of breath Difficulty breathing Fatigue Congestion or runny nose Muscle or body aches Nausea or vomiting Diarrhea Sore Throat If so, please keep your child home.
