Winter 2020

2 Oregon School District Community Ed & Rec • Register TODAY!

Dear Oregon Area Community,

I am excited to introduce the Winter 2020 Community Education & Recreationactivity guide! This guide contains classes and programs designed to expandand enrich the lives of all community members. Inside you’ll find courses thatcover a wide variety of interests. We urge you to register early, as many ofour classes fill up quickly.

Our theme for this winter is “Laugh Together, Learn Together.” I love the ideaof lifelong learning and doing so together with friends, family and community.It aligns very well with one of our District’s five core values - Strong Family &Community Partnerships. This topic is particularly relevant as our communityprepares for growth and opening a 4th elementary school in the City of Fitchburg in Fall of 2020 (visit OregonSD.org/Build for frequent updates). As our community continues to grow, our focus on learning and building community partnerships continues.

I encourage you to join us and try something new with Community Ed & Rec this winter. We look forward to laughing and learning together with you in an upcoming class or at one of our many school events.

Sincerely,Dr. Brian BuslerOregon Superintendent
