On behalf of Hermiston School District, welcome to the greater Hermiston area. The region is one of the fast growing in the state, which poses many exciting opportunities. The schools of the Hermiston School District have consistently seen growth over the last ten years. We are happy to welcome the students through our doors and the families to our community. I believe you will come to see that the people are the greatest asset of Hermiston!
As a district, we are committed to providing a challenging and rigorous curriculum, ensuring that all students, regardless of background, culture, race, sex, capability or geographic location, have access to a quality education in a safe, motivating environment.
As a former teacher and principal, I value the tireless work that our staff does to assist in the social and emotional development of each child as they transition from the primary to the secondary grades. I take very seriously my responsibility to maintain a supportive and collaborative spirit among administrators, school staff, parents, and community members. The learning environment we create for students is a testament to our efforts. The district staff works relentlessly to assist each child day-to-day, as they face everything from new learning challenges to disagreements with friends to the occasional bump or bruise. HSD staff has a heart for our students. That is why we are here!
Working together, we are able to face any challenge that may come our way in the future. If you are considering a move to our area, we look forward to serving your student and family.
Sincerely,
Tricia Mooney
Hermiston School District
Interim Superintendent
