Gervais School District receives Family Partnership award from ODE

Earlier this year, the Oregon Department of Education announced the establishment of the Hòa Nguyễn Attendance Impact Awards, and the Gervais School District got some love. On Friday, Nov. 13, the Gervais School District was the recipient of one of those awards, earning the Family Partnership Award, in an event on campus. This award honors exemplary models of collaboration that center students, caregivers, and community partners as co-designers of attendance-supporting practices and solutions. “We are incredibly honored to receive the Hoa Nguyen Impact Award.
