The At-A-Glance School and District profiles tell a story about Oregon’s schools and districts. The story is harder to tell this year as the COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted our schools and the data we collect. As a result, statewide assessment and attendance data cannot be compared to prior years and are not shown here. We have included links to our website where you can view the 2020-21 statewide assessment and attendance data and read a detailed description of how these data were impacted. We’re thankful for your partnership as we focus on care, connection and the creation of safe, inclusive and supportive learning environments.

School Goals
State Goals
Safe & Welcoming Environment
ENGLISH: Sisters Elementary School has three goals that align with the school district strategic goals. Every student is: · known and connected to adults, peers and resources to develop emotional self-regulation and a foundation of resilience. · on a purposeful path to graduation and is taking an active role in their academic achievement, goal setting and character development. · empowered to discover their passions and strengths through exceptional programs, community partnerships and inclusive practices.
The Oregon Department of Education is partnering with school districts and local communities to ensure a 90% ontime, four year graduation rate by 2025. To progress toward this goal, the state will prioritize efforts to improve attendance, provide a well-rounded education, invest in implementing culturally responsive practices, and promote continuous improvement to close opportunity and achievement gaps for historically and currently underserved students.
Our school strives to ensure all students and their parents feel welcome to our school. We have routines and procedures in place that encourage parents to be a part of the educational process for their students while still maintaining a safe and secure building. We have bilingual staff in our office and building who collaborate to support our Spanish speaking families. As a Leader in Me school (a program with the highest CASEL ratings), Socio Emotional Learning (SEL) is a priority, and we provide daily instruction and reinforcement in helping our students learn to be accepting and welcoming to all.
Eligibility for Free/Reduced Price Lunch expanded in 2020-21, for more information please visit: www.oregon.gov/ode/reports-and-data/

About Our School BULLYING, HARASSMENT, AND SAFETY POLICIES
EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES
To ensure a safe and secure learning environment for all students, our school implements a PBIS plan aligned to Leader in Me and a safety plan. Our administration, counselor, teachers and school staff work with parents and students on a case-by-case basis to address conflict between students and to provide counseling and instruction in positive peer relationships. Our counselor and teachers provide regular, systematic Socio Emotional Learning (SEL) instruction that includes the topics of bullying and harassment. We have begun our Leader in Me journey this year, a program (with the highest CASEL rating) as a vehicle to increase our efficacy in ensuring that all of our students belong. Students who display positive choices are recognized for their efforts.
It is the goal of Sisters Elementary School to develop each child to their fullest potential. To accomplish this goal we provide each student with the opportunity to explore multiple disciplines that help them discover and understand their unique interests and abilities. We partner with community organizations to provide activities within the STEAM umbrella in addition to regularly offered music, physical education, STEM, art and Socio Emotional Learning (SEL). This year we will begin regularly offering in-school club opportunities for our students to help them pursue their interests and passions.
Data are suppressed to protect confidential student information.
PARENT ENGAGEMENT We value our parents as collaborators and partners. We have an active SPTC (Sisters Parent Teacher Community) that hosts a variety of well-attended curriculum nights throughout the year to engage families with the school. Additionally they sponsor three service projects offering our students ways to give back to their community. Annually our students showcase their art to our community, and every student participates in grade level and school-wide musical performances. Sister School District in conjunction with community partners also hosts Latinx Family nights, where parent voices are elevated and valued.
COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT Sisters Elementary School is fortunate to have a community that values our schools and partners with us. We have collaborated with Sisters Folk Festival for many years and recently celebrated the successful completion of a five-year Studio to School grant; we have an art teacher, artists in residence, and expanded music offerings as a result of this partnership. We are currently involved in a two year STEM grant in conjunction with the Central Oregon Science Hub to provide enhanced STEAM opportunities at our school and the middle school. We also work with the Roundhouse Foundation, The Science Club, Seed to Table, and Sisters Schools Foundation to provide enhanced educational opportunities.

School Goals
State Goals
Safe & Welcoming Environment
Sisters Middle School goals are focused on holistic wellness, intervention and enrichment offerings, and school-community relationships. During the 2020-21 school year 100% of our students will have weekly SEL lessons and preventative care guidance lessons, will participate in a PIE (Proactive Interventions & Enrichment) period in their area of need or strength, and will participate in service learning projects.
The Oregon Department of Education is partnering with school districts and local communities to ensure a 90% ontime, four year graduation rate by 2025. To progress toward this goal, the state will prioritize efforts to improve attendance, provide a well-rounded education, invest in implementing culturally responsive practices, and promote continuous improvement to close opportunity and achievement gaps for historically and currently underserved students.
Students’ sense of security comes through well executed safety plans and the scaffolding of supports put in place for open communication and student wellness. Students, parents and families are welcomed in a variety of ways at Sisters Middle School. Positive relationship building starts at the beginning of the day when students and families are greeted as they enter the door. Parents are communicated with by phone, email, online learning platforms and in-person. The teachers communicate regularly with families through Canvas and the principal sends monthly newsletters as well as offers Coffee and Conversation sessions each month.

Academic Progress
The At-A-Glance School and District profiles tell a story about Oregon’s schools and districts. The story is harder to tell this year as the COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted our schools and the data we collect. As a result, statewide assessment and attendance data cannot be compared to prior years and are not shown here. We have included links to our website where you can view the 2020-21 statewide assessment and attendance data and read a detailed description of how these data were impacted. We’re thankful for your partnership as we focus on care, connection and the creation of safe, inclusive and supportive learning environments.

t the heart of the Oregon Cascades lies the Three Sisters Wilderness, named for three 10,000-foot volcanic peaks that loom over the forested slopes below. The Three Sisters Loop traces portions of three National Scenic Byways – McKenzie Pass – Santiam to the north, Cascade Lakes on the eastern slope, and West Cascades facing the sunset – for some stunning scenery and incredible habitat diversity at nearly 50 prime birding sites. Eleven species of woodpeckers nest between Santiam and McKenzie Passes, including Lewis’s, White-headed, and Black-backed, plus all three western sapsuckers. Cache Mountain and the Meadow Lake Basin host Blue and Ruffed Grouse and nesting Vaux’s Swift. The Cascade Lakes Highway features Sparks Lake, with its stunning views of South Sister, plus breeding Savannah Sparrow and Western Meadowlark (Oregon’s state bird) in the meadow. Further south, the marshes of Hosmer Lake set the scene for Yellow-headed Blackbird and American Bittern. The Newberry Volcanic National Monument east of the Deschutes River showcases the most recent volcanic activity in the Oregon Cascades as well as the Gray-crowned Rosy-Finches of Paulina Peak. Waterfalls and river birds abound on the Three Sisters loop with Sahalie and Koosah Falls on the Upper McKenzie River home to American Dipper, Winter Wren, and Harlequin Duck. Salt Creek Falls to the south is well known as the only nesting site in Oregon for the enigmatic Black Swift.

This section of the trail, constructed on top of the buried Tumalo irrigation canal, consists of soft-surface and unimproved surfaces, and includes a few moderate hills. Along the middle stretch of this reach, the river drops into a deep canyon but the trail stays high on the canyon wall, offering spectacular views of the river below and the Three Sisters in the distance. A steep climb up the Archie Briggs Canyon Trail connects to Mt. Washington Dr.

This reach passes through the oldest and most established sections of Bend. The trail isn’t always right on the river, but instead follows sidewalks through neighborhoods and downtown. It passes through beautiful Drake Park on Mirror Pond and ends in McKay Park. There are several footbridges along the way offering opportunities to cross the river.

This reach has trail legs on both sides of the river, connected by a new footbridge approximately 1 1/2 miles upstream of the Farewell Bend Park bridge. The river flows fast here through a beautiful canyon, cascading over rocks and logs. West side: This reach’s west-side leg is known as the Mt. Bachelor Village Trail. Here the soft surface trail is open to pedestrians, but cyclists are not allowed. An alternative cycling route connects from the Bill Healy Bridge to the Haul Road Trail along Century Drive. East side: The east-side trail at the northern end of this reach is unimproved surface, narrow and rocky in places; the southern end is on the gravel ditch road which runs above the river and next to the COID siphon pipe. There are several connections to nearby neighborhoods along the way.

Located across the foot bridge from Drake Park, Pageant Park was named in commemoration of the Bend Water Pageant, a favorite community event that ran from 1933-1965. An interpretive sign describes the event highlight, the launch of large lighted floats on Mirror Pond.

The Drake Park interpretive sign (located directly in front of the public restrooms) describes Bend’s early sense of community spirit.

McKay Park is the site of the Oregon Trunk Railroad interpretive sign, which describes Bend’s early railroad history. Across the river from Farewell Bend Park is the new Riverbend Park, acquired in 2004 as community park space. The first phase of park development is planned for fall of 2005. Farewell Bend Park, Bend’s newest community river park, honors the history of the logging industry at this site with two interpretive signs. Two additional signs explain a riparian restoration project and other steps being made to care for the health of our river and its ecosystem. The park includes a playground and restrooms. The boardwalk here offers a view of Central Oregon Irrigation District’s Hydro site, where irrigation water is dropped back to the river through two turbines, generating electrical power. The public has access to this trail section thanks to an agreement with COID — please stay on the designated trail.

Once the site of two large ponderosa pine lumber mills, today the Old Mill Reach is a mix of river parks, the Shops at the Old Mill, and areas yet to be developed. Three footbridges connect trail legs on either side of the river, providing convenient walking loops. On the east side, the trails are hard surface from the Old Mill District to the Bill Healy bridge. The trail on the west side offers a mix of hard and soft surfaces. Farewell Bend Park provides two developed boat landings for paddlers using the Deschutes River water trail. The east side trail passes through Farewell Bend Park, which also provides two developed boat landings for paddlers using the Deschutes River water trail.

Mt. Bachelor Village Resort, in partnership with Brooks Resources and the High Desert Museum, has provided a series of informative signs along this section of trail which describe the native habitat, foliage, and other points of interest. At this point along the trail, visitors can see the COID irrigation diversion which sends river water into the canal system to support agricultural and power production needs. Fish are directed back to the river by an elaborate fish screen. Danger: This area is not open to the public.

This section, favored by many locals, is also built over the Tumalo canal and was the first section of river trail to open in 1989. The surface is both soft-surface and unimproved, and is wide and relatively flat. The trail runs between the river and a high canyon wall, and passes through the River’s Edge golf course and adjacent neighborhoods. There are several wetlands in this reach, inhabited by songbirds, trumpeter swans, otter and beaver. Osprey frequently nest and fish here.

Welcome to Central Oregon Where the commute times are short and breathtaking views await you at every turn. The region features dramatic snow-capped mountain ranges and high desert plateaus within Deschutes, Crook and Jefferson counties. Located halfway between San Francisco and Seattle, the hottest small metropolitan market in the U.S. is Central Oregon. In the last decade the region has seen some of the highest sustained GDP growth, job growth and population growth. With these factors in mind, The Milken Institute has named the region the best small metropolitan in the nation four years in a row – an unprecedented feat no other location has ever received. Central Oregon is pulling extraordinary talent and capital, fostering a diverse and highly entrepreneurial business ecosystem. Lured by natural scenic beauty and big city amenities (world-class health care, education, dining) without big city costs or hassle, people are learning that having a true work-life balance is possible. Employees are happier; companies are more innovative and capital-efficient. All in a region dominated by small to mid-sized firms that compete globally – and win.

Oregon offers more incentive programs to traded sector businesses (companies that sell products or services outside the area) than Washington and California combined. Even without taking those incentives into consideration, Oregon is still a more cost-effective choice for doing business. Contact EDCO for a detailed look at the business costs in Central Oregon.

“While our move to Central Oregon may have started for personal reasons, it has allowed us to do more with our business than we thought possible. It has allowed us to hire amazing employees – the available talent here in Central Oregon has proven to be of the highest caliber and chocked full of integrity. Sometimes you feel like you can get lost in a big city. In Sisters we have been able to be part of a growing and nurturing business community.” - Wyatt Woods, President and Owner, Holy Kakow
Case Study: Holy Kakow Founded in Portland in 2009, Holy Kakow creates premium organic chocolate sauces and syrups that are used in coffee shops across the nation and globe. After running the business for nearly a decade, founder Wyatt Woods decided a move to Sisters, Oregon would be beneficial for his family. The next step was to figure out how to move the successful business. After EDCO’s help with site selection, incentives, permitting, and more, Holy Kakow was able to move their operations into a new building in the Sisters Business Park. The relocation allowed them to scale for growth, even during the pandemic, expanding their employment from three to eight in the span of a couple months. Holy Kakow have their sights set on new product launches, and with the backing of the community and the growing number of craft food businesses in Sisters, they’re surrounded by a strong business ecosystem to help them succeed.

We mentor and advise scalable young companies from concept to exit on issues such as access to capital, critical expertise and business strategy.
“Central Oregon has an incredible entrepreneurial ecosystem, filled with self-starters and trailblazers. These companies are creating new opportunities with the help of multiple influential organizations. EDCO and the newly-formed food and beverage industry association, Cultivate Bend, support and guide the many product companies that call this region home.” -Paul Evers, CEO, Riff Cold Brewed
Case Study: Riff Cold Brewed Riff Cold Brewed was born from a mission to produce the world’s most delicious cold brewed coffee. Serial entrepreneur Paul Evers (also behind Bend staple Crux Fermentation Project), along with a crew of other Central Oregonians, started Riff in late 2017. They opened a bottling and production facility in Redmond, along with the first-of-its-kind Cold Brew Taproom in Bend. Riff is a great example of how economic development programs are poised to help companies grow. From the beginning, they worked with Redmond Economic Development (REDI) to utilize different tax incentive programs, while connecting with other community resources to help the company position itself to grow more efficiently. In October 2019, Riff presented and won funding at the Bend Venture Conference (BVC), the largest angel conference in the West. With innovation at its core, Riff has taken the craft brewing expertise to create the next great variation in energy drinks. The funding they received from BVC allowed them to further develop their latest product, Alter Ego, a natural plant-based energy drink brewed from coffee’s little-known fruity pulp, cascara, a traditionally wasted biproduct of coffee. Page 8 - Economic Development for Central Oregon
ENTREPRENEURIAL SUPPORT
A driving force for our economic performance is a collaborative and inclusive entrepreneurial community. This is supported via the number of new business registrations, which has outpaced far larger cities. In 2019, AdvisorSmith ranked Bend fifth for Top Midsize Cities where Americans Start the Most Businesses at 3.79 business started per 1,000 residents. The region is large enough to provide resources and access to capital that help new entrepreneurs get started, while still being small enough that those resources are interconnected to support businesses as they grow. Unique to Central Oregon, given its size, are the numerous community resources and assets that are available. Assets managed by EDCO include monthly Central Oregon PubTalks, the Stable of Experts (mentors) and the largest Angel Conference in the West, the Bend Venture Conference.

GROW
We partner with local traded-sector companies to help them grow and expand, offering them the very same incentives and assistance as relocation projects.
“From our initial startup days through our expansion today, it is refreshing to work with organizations like EDCO, the Redmond Chamber and the City of Redmond. These groups have worked side by side with our team to get us where we are today and have been an asset to our growing business. They are prime examples of organizations focused on supporting sustainable business growth and helping develop a stronger community for years to come!” -Matt Tobolski, President and Founder, BASX Solutions
Case Study: BASX Solutions BASX Solutions is an industry leader in the design and manufacturing of high-efficiency data center cooling solutions, cleanroom systems, custom HVAC solutions, and more. Headquartered in Redmond since 2014, BASX has customers across the U.S. and around the globe. They recently broke ground on a new 75,000 square foot building expansion, allowing the company to consolidate its operations while substantially increasing their manufacturing capacity. The expansion will give BASX approximately 200,000 square feet of manufacturing space while bringing additional jobs to what is already one of the city’s largest employers, nearly doubling their employee count once their facilities are operational and fully staffed. Part of what drew BASX to Central Oregon in 2012 was the fact that Redmond stood out as a city that values and supports business and manufacturing operations. It became clear quickly that the City, Redmond Economic Development, Inc., the Redmond Chamber, and other organizations work together collectively to support job growth. The ability for these entities to work together seamlessly lured BASX to the region and has spurred their expansion, allowing them to continue focusing on delivering their products to critical industries.

SERVICES & INFRASTRUCTURE
UTILITIES Because most of our region has been built new in the past two decades, our telecommunications infrastructure is one of the Northwest’s most technologically advanced, meeting business and telecommuting requirements for capacity, redundancy and reliability.
EDUCATION Central Oregon is well-recognized for its high level of education, with some of the best K-12 public schools in the nation. In 2020, the Bend-La Pine school district’s average SAT scores surpassed the national average by over 130 points. Additionally, our higher education opportunities abound. From Oregon State University-Cascades ongoing expansion, to Central Oregon Community College’s four campuses in the region, there are opportunities for all to obtain a quality education.
HEALTHCARE Top quality healthcare is one of Central Oregon’s crown jewels. St. Charles Health System is the largest healthcare provider in the region, and is also the largest employer with over 4,500 employees across the tri-county area. A network of more than 100 clinics and specialty practices further support the community.

2021 Central Oregon Largest 50 Private Employers
Source: State of Oregon Employment Department, 2020
According to the Oregon Employment Department, 77% of Oregon establishments have nine or fewer employees and the average private establishment employs 11 people. Still, a number of large employers operate successfully here, tapping into Central Oregon’s ever-expanding workforce, the overall low cost of doing business and business-friendly local governments. This year, the top 50 private companies collectively employ nearly 21,000 Central Oregonians, or roughly 21.9% of the region’s current total employment.
