The Adrian School District was successful in receiving the facilities improvement
grant. We were awarded the full amount of our request of $945,000.
The next step is to seek a local levy for the same amount. Our estimated
need for the new gym, and remodels of existing structures, is $1,890,000.
Our plan is to locate the gym on the site of the old elementary school. Specific details will be determined if we are able to pass the local levy. The date of the
levy election will be May 17, 2016. It should be noted that we will not receive the
grant amount unless we pass a ’matching’ local levy.
We will have an information night in late March, or early in April. The board
will determine what and when at the next regular meeting on March 10th. At this
facilities information event; patrons are welcome to ask question, make suggestions, etc.
District basketball was last week in John Day and both teams did well with
the Girl’s team taking 1st in district. Good job to both teams!
Congratulations to all of the wrestlers for a good season and a good showing at District. Marcus Furtado is our lone state qualifier. Great Job!
At the school board meeting of January 14, I reported that the Adrian
School is meeting all state requirements. Of this fact, I am very proud. We have a
‘great’ school.
Yours, respectfully,
Gene Mills
High School Principal/Counselor
I am not sure where the time goes, but, when you have measured your life
by the school calendar for over forty years, it goes fast. Your life rolls by in quarters, semesters, productions and sports seasons. We associate our students with
events and activities to try to remember what year everything occurred. It goes by
so fast! I was reminded of that this past weekend as the girls and boys basketball
teams ventured over to John Day for the District 8-1A Basketball Tournament. It
was there that I realized that I have been going to district tournaments for 27
years, the last nine while here at Adrian. As I ran into old friends and ex-students
(who are much older than I remember them being) the number one question I got
was, “How are you enjoying Adrian?” My response was always the same, “I love
it. We have great kids and great parents, it is a great community. I have really
been blessed by the move!” Then I realize, I didn’t just move here, it has been
nine years! Time fly’s, just like this year has flown by!
HS Principal (Con’t)
Having said all of that, we move from winter to spring, soon from basketball and wrestling to softball and track. Before we move on you should know, that Marcus Furtado will represent Adrian at the 1A/2A
State Wrestling Meet in Portland this week and that the girls won the District Tournament and will host a
state playoff game this Friday! We will also move from the hustle and bustle of senior projects to the few
extensions which are left. You would think that we should be winding down our activities, but, like spring
giving birth to new life, everything seems to come out of hibernation, including the school activities. Aside
from the athletic change of season we still have the following to look forward to: The drama production, this
year it is “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory”, spring music concerts, choir and band competitions,
FFA State Convention, prom and graduation! Just to name a few. Let us not forget that these are all extracurricular activities.
I would like to encourage our students to maintain their academic focus amid all of the hustle and
bustle. Third quarter is coming to an end and we have two RSD Fridays still available. I believe that our
system of RSD Fridays is a wonderful thing for our students; however, they are only wonderful if you take
advantage of them. Thank you for what has already been a great year, I look forward to the remainder of
our school year.

Math 30 Seconds
By Erin Nielson, ASB Reporter
The month of February has come and gone
quickly, even with the additional day of a leap year.
Students at Adrian high school have continued to
work hard in school, sports and everything else.
The Adrian ball team 18th, 19th, and 20th
the basketball teams competed for the district title.
The boys team took a fall to Prairie City but turned
around the next day and beat Harper/Huntington for
consolation. The Lady Lopes played Jordan Valley
on Friday night and defeated the Mustangs for the
third time this season. The Lady ‘Lopes advanced
to the championship against the Crane Mustangs.
Saturday night the Lady ‘Lopes pulled out with the
win, defeating the Mustangs and winning the district
title. The Adrian basketball teams wish to thank
parents, students, and community members who
made the journey to John Day and supported the
teams. The girls will host a first round game in Adrian on February 26th. Please come and show your
Adrian pride.
Congratulations to Marcus Furtado on placing second at the district wrestling tournament. Marcus will compete at the 1A-2A State Wrestling
Championships on February 26th and 27th at the
Moda Center in Portland, Oregon.
Students will get a break from all of the
studies and athletic competition as Spring Break will
be the week of March 21st-25th.
Michael Geisen in “How to Become a
SuperStar Student” has suggestions for
parents related to helping with homework.
Homework does not need to be a battle or
considered as punishment but rather as a
means for developing a self-reliant student.
An environment for success involves setting
a study
schedule and providing a relaxed physical
environment
with few
distractions that
is free from
stress and threat
but not free from
challenge or consequences related to the
student’s behaviors.
Parents are not expected to do student
homework but rather to provide a physical
space and psychological environment
conducive to effective study. Hopefully
parents can encourage students with helpful
questions, provide suggestions for
completing assignments and consequences
for behaviors detrimental to successful
homework completion.

Students of the Month
Scholastic Book Fair
Thanks to the generosity of District patrons,
the recent Scholastic book fair set a new
record by taking in $2,947.88. That gives
us $1473.94 in Scholastic Dollars to be
spent for books during the coming school
year. We plan to get library bound books
that will last for several years and will
probably be able to get at least 70 new
books.
Libri Foundation Grant
Since 2004 the Adrian School Library has
received a grant
from the Libri Foundation every 3
years in which the
Foundation added
$700 to $350 raised in our community
(through donations, memorial gifts, and
book fairs) enabling us to choose books
worth $1050 from their inventory. 2016 is
the last year of operation for the Libri
Foundation and Adrian School Library is
one of over 300 libraries throughout the
country to be awarded a final grant. This
year we will receive a book-a-month
subscription for elementary science books
through Junior Library Guild and $1,000 to
spend from Junior Library Guild’s backlist
catalog. We’ll share more details later
about how that will work.

with fun Dr. Seuss
activities all week
beginning Monday,
February 29 –
Thursday, Mar 3. .
Reading is fun and
we hope you will get involved with us too!
I recently read a short note about excellent attendance.
“Being in school every day means your child won’t miss
out on learning. Try to schedule appointments and
family trips outside of school hours. If he/she asks
to stay home “just because,” remind him/her of what
he’ll miss, such as his/her reading group or art class.
Explain that he/she can be absent only if he’s/she’s
sick or there’s a family emergency.” Thank you all for
doing a good job with our kids in the community.
Thanks for all of your support.

By Miriah Richardson
“I was confused—I did not notice the word ‘auto’ before body painting.”
KrissAnn Nelson, aka ‘Shortcake’, ‘Red’, ‘Croissant’—may be a small package but in no means is she not
noticeable around the Adrian campus. Smart, humorous, responsible, a leader, caring, helpful, and a good
friend are just a few of the allusions to KrissAnn.
KrissAnn chose the following three careers to focus on during Senior Project: Physical Therapy, Business
Management and Auto Body Painting.
For KrissAnn’s Physical Therapy shadows, she
stayed pretty close to home. KrissAnn began her
job shadow process with scheduling a job
shadow at Owyhee Health and Rehabilitation in
Homedale, Idaho. She returned to Homedale for
her second job shadow, a visit to Rehab
Authority. Next on the schedule was Altitude
Physical Therapy in Caldwell, for her final job
shadow for Physical Therapy. As for her
Business Management job shadow, she went
and shadowed Sheri Folk over at Allstate
Insurance in Meridian, Idaho. Deciding to
venture farther from home, KrissAnn had the
opportunity to job shadow at Franklin Auto Body
in Boise, Idaho. If asked what her favorite
shadow was, she would say, “My favorite job
shadow was with Altitude Physical Therapy
because I felt welcomed and got offered an internship. I also
really liked Franklin Auto Body because I got to paint and sand a new bumper”.
Along with the stress of scheduling job shadows, seniors must put together a Physical Project. KrissAnn
decided to do three Physical Projects. Her first one was a Fire Safety class for the Elementary school.
Then, she organized flu shots for the community and finished with the Reality Baby Program for the
sophomore class. Her favorite job shadow was the flu shot because it helped the community.
KrissAnn’s Senior Project advisor was Ms. Myers and her Physical Project advisor was Mr. Johnson.
After High school, KrissAnn plans on attending College of Western Idaho (CWI) and receiving her
Associate’s Degree in either Law Enforcement or the Medical field. She would also love to travel a lot more.
In High school, students make a lot of memories. A few of KrissAnn’s favorite memories include helping the
third grade do their Black History month project, leadership projects of helping others and making care
packages for individuals diagnosed with cancer. She stated she also really enjoyed being in Yearbook.
Her advice to under-classmen is, “Don’t procrastinate. Start your Senior Project in the summer if you can
because it will go a lot smoother than if you wait until the beginning of the school year.”
It’s None of Your Business—David Jamison
By Laura Mazac
Shy, private, quiet— meet David Jamison, otherwise known as DJ in the hallways of Adrian High School.
People that really know him would say humorous, sneaky, and intelligent. As DJ contemplates life after high
school, he foresees his future being all about business.
David Jamison (DJ) is a senior at Adrian High School. For his required course
of senior project he decided a main career choice of business
management. His other two options are computer programming and real
estate. DJ selected Mrs. Witty as his senior project advisor.
DJ job shadowed a number of places. For business management he went
to the Treasure Valley Career Center, there he shadowed Carrie. He also
visited Witco Inc. and shadowed Jerry. For real estate he shadowed Ron
at Treasure Valley Mobile Village. Then he went to visit John Smith, who
is a landlord, in Ontario. For computer programming, DJ contacted
McGowan Computers and shadowed Dan McGowan. He then went to
job shadow Chris Gordon at Farmers Mutual Telephone Company.
“Witco made me want to work in a small environment,” said DJ.
“Everybody knew each other, it was a small office, which I enjoyed.”
DJ’s physical project was managing the Adrian Library book fair. He said
he did this for his project because his advisor suggested it, and he
enjoyed the idea of managing an event. His physical project advisor was
Mr. Corn.
“I plan on going to college to study business management, I’ve always
wanted to be my own boss,” DJ said. “Maybe manage my own business.”
“I would like to go to the University of Idaho in the fall, but I plan to work in the summer first,” stated DJ.
If DJ could give any advice to the underclassmen, it would be to stay on task, set goals and accomplish them.
By Brooke Meyer
Growing up Kylee is a middle child. Which means she is the person who holds everything together in her family. She has been a helping hand in many things and always making others feel better. Little did she know,
she would find a niche for helping more than just her family.
Kylee Skerjanec is a senior attending Adrian High School. For senior project, the seniors have to choose 3
careers, not just one. Kylee’s project was affiliated with her main career in Psychology. Her second and third
career were Teaching and Physical Therapy.
Amongst those three careers, Kylee also had to participate in job shadows, just like every senior.
In her first career choice, Kylee went to Bobby De Leon the Nyssa High School Counselor, Orquidea Flores
with Lifeways, Sarah Hayden with The Family Place and lastly Edene Christensen with Canyon Counseling.
Out of all her job shadows, this was her favorite one because it expanded her knowledge about the career
field in Psychology. She found that there were endless possibilities for her to pursue in this profession. Not
only was it very informative but it was also interactive as Kylee was able to sit in on a counseling session.
(Continued next page)
For her second career field in Teaching she went to, Angela Lattin who’s a teacher at Vale High School.
Lastly, for her final career in Physical Therapy, she went to Brad Page who’s a Physical Therapist at Idaho
Sports.
For the physical project portion of her senior project, Kylee hosted an
assembly for the grades 2nd-5th about bullying. She prepared for the
assembly by interacting with students and recording videos of a few of
them stating what bullying is and where bullying tends to happen. To
tie the video together, she grouped a few kids together and in unison,
stating “Bullying is Wrong”. Kylee presented her video at the assembly.
She talked to students about bullying and then had high school
students assist her in breakout sessions with the elementary students.
This was a great event for students and a very impactful day for the
children!
When I asked Kylee what her favorite part of senior project was, she
stated “My favorite part would have had to of been my assembly. I feel
like the kids were really impacted by what I had to say.”
After high school Kylee plans on attending Eastern Oregon University
where she will pursue her masters in Psychology, which will later help
her open up her own private practice.
Kylee’s favorite memory about high school was when she got to
participate in creating care packages for cancer patients with the
leadership class, because she enjoys helping people.
“For you underclassmen, DO NOT procrastinate. Make sure you get you stuff done as soon as you have the
opportunity to do so!”
Thank God I’m a country boy—Thayne Schulthies
By Erin Nielson
In this agriculture based community, it’s not uncommon for seniors to choose a career path away from
tractors and wheat fields. However, for Thayne Schulthies he just can’t
take the farm out of the boy.
His family owns and operates a farm in Adrian. Agriculture has always
interested Thayne, and his plan was to pursue a career in Ag Science.
As Thayne contemplated senior project requirements, his decided to
focus upon on the careers interests of Heavy Equipment Operator, Farm
Equipment Mechanic and is interested in Ag Science.
As far as the job shadow portion of senior project, Thayne had three job
shadows all focused on the career of Ag Science. His first was at Valley
Wide Agronomics in Nyssa, Oregon. Next, he headed over to Simplot in
Caldwell, Idaho. Not too far away was Nunhems Bayer Crop Service in
Parma, Idaho – which is where he had his last Ag Science job shadow.
He scheduled his Heavy Equipment shadow at the Nyssa Road District
in Nyssa, Oregon. Thayne headed over to WBH in Nyssa, Oregon for
his Farm Equipment Management job shadow. Thayne said that his
favorite shadow was with Nunhems Bayer Crop Science because it
opened his eyes the most to a different side of Agriculture.
Thayne worked diligently toward his FFA State Degree his junior year.
(Continued next page)
Thayne requested the services of Mrs. Chamberlain, Adrian’s Ag Science instructor and FFA advisor, to assist
him as his senior project advisor as well as his physical project advisor. It is not the norm to have the same
teacher serve as both advisors but due to Thayne working toward receiving his State FFA Degree it was
simply common sense to request the services of Mrs. Chamberlain.
Through the course of Senior Project, Thayne decided that he did not want to pursue a career in Ag Science,
but rather Ag Business. With a degree in Ag Business it will help him be able to begin his own farming
operation.
Thayne got accepted into Eastern Oregon University (EOU) and he is planning on attending the school in
January of 2017.
His advice for under classmen are simple yet wise: Don’t procrastinate, and find a career field you enjoy.
A Taste of His Own Medicine – Ryan Hawkins
By KrissAnn Nelson
What comes around goes around. Ryan Hawkins class of 2000, probably had no idea that he would end up in
education as a career. Especially after all the pranks he pulled on the staff members at Adrian High School. He
may not recall all of them, but Mrs. Esplin surely remembers one in particular. Her car was occupied by the
‘Paper Family’, not an inch of space available as shredded paper was sticking out of the top of her car windows
and the sunroof. All grown up and currently an Elementary
principal in Sumner, Washington school district, Adrian staff may be having the last laugh now that he has
to deal with his “own kind”.
During high school Ryan loved having a good time
and pulling pranks. School was not just about having
fun however, as he managed to achieve what he said
was “very good grades”. Ryan was also a very involved student, stating he was in the first leadership
class to go to Seaside, Oregon for the leadership conference. He was the Student Body Reporter, active in
FFA, and the founder of the International Club. Ryan
was also involved with all the sports Adrian had to
offer, including golf.
After high school Ryan went to college in Linfield,
Washington and received his Bachelor’s Degree with
a minor in History. At George Fox University, in
Newberg, OR, Ryan got a Double Masters in
Elementary Education. After receiving his Masters,
Ryan taught third and fourth grade in Midville, OR.
He then was a principal at the Midville Middle School.
Moving on to be a High School principal in Lincoln
City, OR. Ryan is now a Middle School principal at
Liberty Ridge Elementary/Middle School.
Ryan and his wife Brie have been married for three
wonderful years and together have one child that is 2 years of age and another baby on the way due in April.
(Continued next page)
Ryan’s favorite high school memory was how everyone was like family. He
loved how close everyone was to each other and how there were not many
cliques throughout the school. He also loved seeing how many shades of red
Mr. Johnson’s face could get.
His advice for high school students now is, “Keep the goal of what’s next in
your mind, you can always bring things back to Adrian. You need to go out in
the world. Also watch out with how much fun you have because karma sucks”.
He wanted to tell all the staff, “Keep on giving and keep on loving the kids. Also, I’m sorry!”
School Board Minutes (Con’t)
Adjournment Motion was made and was seconded to adjourn the meeting. Motion carried
unanimously. The meeting was declared adjourned at 7:55 p.m.
Complete copies of the minutes are posted in each building and on the district website,
www.adriansd.com. Copies may be requested from the District Office.
Cafeteria Scoop
March 7th- 11th is National School Breakfast Week (NSBW). This year’s theme is “Wake Up To School
Breakfast”. NSBW was launched in 1989 to raise awareness about the availability of the School Breakfast
Program (SBP). Students who eat breakfast have better attention, memory and perform better academically. Students who participate in school breakfast show improved attendance, behavior and decreased
tardiness. A healthy school breakfast is the perfect way for your child to start their day. All school meals
meet the nutrition standards required federally.
Our school cafeteria participated in the first
November School Breakfast Challenge,
sponsored by the Oregon Dairy Council,
Partners for a Hunger Free-Oregon and
ODE Child Nutrition Programs. Our goal
was to increase breakfast participation
and ADRIAN WON!!!! We increased
participation by 181%!!!! We had the
biggest increase even over bigger schools
and we received a $500 cash prize. Great
job kids and keep up the participation
towards a healthy start to the day.
Why School Breakfast?
Higher Academic Scores—Studies
have shown eating breakfast at
school results in higher test
scores.
Improved Behavior—Hungry
children are more likely to have
discipline problems. Teens who
eat regularly are less likely to be
suspended from school.
Reduced Tardiness—Kids who
participate in the School Breakfast Program are late or absent
from school less often.
Ranchers Feeding Kids
Attention Cattlemen !!
We are looking for beef donations that will be utilized in our local school districts’ hot lunch programs.
Donate an open cow or cull bull, any animal that is healthy can be utilized.
Benefits of the Program:
▪ Provide, safe, local, healthy and nutritional beef meals to students
▪ Save the school district money
▪ Increase beef consumption and demonstrate how beef consumption is part
of a healthy lifestyle
▪ Educate future consumers about an industry critical to their community,
county, state and country
▪ Foster a relationship between the school district, teachers and students with local
ranchers and community members
▪ Spread a positive beef message
This program is sponsored by the: Malheur County Cattlemen’ s Association
In the past 4 years, Adrian has received 4 donated beef animals to use in our lunches
If you have an animal you wish to share for the schools food program please contact Chris Christensen at
541-473-3096 or email at ct2js@fmtcblue.com. Arrangements will be made to pick the animal up, or if you
are hauling a load of beef to Producers in Vale, you can drop your donated beef there and it will be penned for
us to haul to Northwest Premium meats, another partner in this project. The only requirement for the animal is
that it can pass a USDA inspection and be ambulatory, as they must go to Nampa for processing.
You will receive a tax donation receipt for the value of the animal once it is delivered.
