Willamina FFA hasnated thousands of
pounds of food to un-
fortunate families just
this year. The food
baskets included tur-
nips, potatoes, on-
ions, carrots, dairy
products and so much
more! Also, to be
even more charitable
for the holiday sea-
son, they didn't just
donate to our area, but
to Dayton, Amity, and
Elder Care Centers.
They were there to
help those in need,
just like always.

OASC Conference
Part ofWHS' leadership class paid a visit to Seaside OR for the
OASC leadership conference. Aside from having a ton of fun, stu-
dents got to vote for Oregon's student council. At the conference
WHS' leadership class got to know other students from all over
Oregon and participate in dances, breakout sessions, and listen to
guest speakers. All in all it was a great trip and students are excited

Canned Food Drive
By Brittany McC01m
Wfllamina High School competed against
Wdlamina Middle School in a canned food
drive. The middle school won with 1,508
pounds of food collected. The high school had
only 535.3 pounds of food collected.
The high school also had two inner-school
competitions, advisory vs. advisory and class
vs. class. Mrs. Peters' class won the advisory
competition, collecting 100 pounds. Mr.
Hughes' class came in second with 82.3
pounds. The juniors won the class competi-
tion with 281 pounds of food collected. The
freshmen came in second with 162.2 pounds.
The cans were taken to the VFW Hall and
they donated part of them to the Grand Shera-
mina food bank so that families who needed
food over Christmas time would have it. Thank
you to all students and staff who brought
canned food in.

Budget Cuts an issue at WHS
By Becca Glass
Money is indeed
an issue for WHS
right now as funds
are very slim. Re-
cently a boiler has
broken which will
cost the school at
least $30,000 to fix
leaving classrooms
very cold. This is
only the icing on the
cake for WHS since
the school has al-
ready been struggling
to make do with what
little revenue it has.
Altogether Oregon's
schools have lost
$1.15 billion, so it's
photo by Rebecca Glass
no surprise that
Willamina's school
board has been trying
to fred some majorly
effective budget cuts.
So far, they have only
come up with closing
the Willamina Middle
School at Grand
Ronde and moving it
to the elementary/
high school in modu-
lar buildings. Another
proposal is to go to
four day weeks.
These two cuts will
save the school
$999,000 though it's
still not enough.
These are just some
ideas and there will be
some more fmal pro-
posals at the next
school board meeting
on the December 15.
So the next time
there's a bond that
benefits the school,
take consideration of
our community and
the children that are in
it and vote for it to
pass!
