McKenzie Families, Our fall sports kick-off faced a slight delay due to the unfortunate wildfires in our area. However, we are excited as our Volleyball team steps onto the court this week. We are set to host the Yoncalla Eagles for our inaugural match this Tuesday. We then head to Mohawk for a double-header on Saturday against the Mustangs and the Manahouse Academy Lions. On the Football front, the mandatory 9 practices per player mean we'll be starting a tad later, with our first game scheduled for 9/15 against the Eddyville Eagles. We're eager to welcome more players to the fold, so if you've been contemplating joining, now's the time! Coach Barrett and Henley feel optimistic, and we all look forward to the return of football this season! Upcoming Matches: Volleyball - Tuesday, 9/5, 6 p.m.: McKenzie vs. Yoncalla - Saturday, 9/9: - Depart from school: 10am - McKenzie @ Mohawk: 12pm - McKenzie vs. Manahouse Academy: 1:30pm

Good morning, McKenzie families! Due to the wildfire, our school board meeting has been postponed. We are hoping to reschedule for Wednesday, August 23, at 5:30 pm.

Dear Members of the McKenzie Community, It deeply saddens us to witness yet another fire affecting our cherished community. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the numerous first responders who are tirelessly working to safeguard our homes and property and those bravely combating the fires in our area. We recognize the profound strain this places on all of us, particularly those within the evacuation zones. The Red Cross has established a shelter at Lowell High School, located at 65 Pioneer St, Lowell, OR 97452, to assist evacuees from both the Lookout and Bedrock Fires. If you require further assistance or support, kindly reach out to Lacey Joy at 541-554-0209 or myself, Lane Tompkins, at 541-854-5339. There are many resources in our community; a call center with current evacuation can be reached at 541-682-2055. Continue to reach out to your family and friends in our community to see if they might need help. We will be sure to communicate resources as they become available.
