Learn how to report a concern at Orondo School District, including information about harrassment, intimidation and bullying. REPORT A CONCERN (HIB) OUR SCHOOL PROTECTS STUDENTS FROM HARASSMENT, INTIMIDATION, AND BULLYING (HIB) What is HIB? HIB is any intentional electronic, written, verbal, or physical act of a student that: • Physically harms another student or damages their property; • Has the effect of greatly interfering with another student’s education; or, • Is so severe, persistent, or significant that it creates an intimidating or threatening education environment for other students. HIB generally involves an observed or perceived power imbalance and is repeated multiple times or is highly likely to be repeated. HIB is not allowed, by law, in our schools. How can I make a report or complaint about HIB? Talk to any school staff member (consider starting with whoever you are most comfortable with). You may use our district’s reporting form (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1bgWLBN08VkW6ScWKYLu0wiXaVJff8LDl/view)to share concerns about HIB, but reports about HIB can be made in writing or verbally. Your report can made anonymously, if you are uncomfortable revealing your identity, or confidentially if you prefer it not be shared with other students involved with the report. No disciplinary action will be taken against another student based solely on an anonymous or confidential report. If a staff member is notified of, observes, overhears, or otherwise witnesses HIB, they must take prompt and appropriate action to stop the HIB behavior and to prevent it from happening again. Our district also has a HIB Compliance Officer (Stephanie Andler, 509-784-1333) who supports prevention and response to HIB. What happens after I make a report about HIB? If you report HIB, school staff must attempt to resolve the concerns. If the concerns are resolved, then no further action may be necessary. However, if you feel that you or someone you know is the victim of unresolved, severe, or persistent HIB that requires further investigation and action, then you should request an official HIB investigation. Also, the school must take action to ensure that those who report HIB don’t experience retaliation. What is the investigation process? When you report a complaint, the HIB Compliance Officer or staff member leading the investigation must notify the families of the students involved with the complaint and must make sure a prompt and thorough investigation takes place. The investigation must be completed within 5 school days, unless you agree on a different timeline. If your complaint involves circumstances that require a longer investigation, the district will notify you with the anticipated date for their response. When the investigation is complete, the HIB Compliance Officer or the staff member leading the investigation must provide you with the outcomes of the investigation within 2 school days. This response should include: • A summary of the results of the investigation • A determination of whether the HIB is substantiated • Any corrective measures or remedies needed • Clear information about how you can appeal the decision What are the next steps if I disagree with the outcome? For the student designated as the “targeted student” in a complaint: If you do not agree with the school district’s decision, you may appeal the decision and include any additional information regarding the complaint to the superintendent, or the person assigned to lead the appeal, and then to the school board. For the student designated as the “aggressor” in a complaint: A student found to be an “aggressor” in a HIB complaint may not appeal the decision of a HIB investigation. They can, however, appeal corrective actions that result from the findings of the HIB investigation. For more information about the HIB complaint process, including important timelines, please review this webpage or the district’s HIB Policy 3207 (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1QFDnLOMPLTo6mRsHuIYlnH5NgTPEVb0u/view?usp=drive_link)and Procedure 3207P.(https://drive.google.com/file/d/1EfC6MVTvDwOPrBsngqDSZTHrR8A0mIw1/view?usp=drive_link) Schools are meant to be safe and inclusive environments where all students are protected from Harassment, Intimidation, and Bullying (HIB), including in the classroom, on the school bus, in school sports, and during other school activities. This section defines HIB, explains what to do when you see or experience it, and our school’s process for responding to it. OUR SCHOOL STANDS AGAINST DISCRIMINATION What is discriminatory harassment? Discriminatory harassment can include teasing and name-calling; graphic and written statements; or other conduct that may be physically threatening, harmful, or humiliating. Discriminatory harassment happens when the conduct is based on a student’s protected class and is serious enough to create a hostile environment. A hostile environment is created when conduct is so severe, pervasive, or persistent that it limits a student’s ability to participate in, or benefit from, the school’s services, activities, or opportunities. To review the district’s Nondiscrimination Policy 3210 and Procedure 3210p visit our Policies webpage.(https://beccaf89.wixsite.com/orondo/policies-and-procedures) What is sexual harassment? Sexual harassment is any unwelcome conduct or communication that is sexual in nature and substantially interferes with a student's educational performance or creates an intimidating or hostile environment. Sexual harassment can also occur when a student is led to believe they must submit to unwelcome sexual conduct or communication to gain something in return, such as a grade or a place on a sports team. Examples of sexual harassment can include pressuring a person for sexual actions or favors; unwelcome touching of a sexual nature; graphic or written statements of a sexual nature; distributing sexually explicit texts, e-mails, or pictures; making sexual jokes, rumors, or suggestive remarks; and physical violence, including rape and sexual assault. Our schools do not discriminate based on sex and prohibit sex discrimination in all of our education programs and employment, as required by Title IX and state law. To review the district’s Sexual Harassment Policy 3205 and Procedure 3205, visit our Policies webpage.(https://beccaf89.wixsite.com/orondo/policies-and-procedures) What should my school do about discriminatory and sexual harassment? When a school becomes aware of possible discriminatory or sexual harassment, it must investigate and stop the harassment. The school must address any effects the harassment had on the student at school, including eliminating the hostile environment, and make sure that the harassment does not happen again. What can I do if I’m concerned about discrimination or harassment? Talk to a Coordinator or submit a written complaint. You may contact the following school district staff members to report your concerns, ask questions, or learn more about how to resolve your concerns. • Concerns about discrimination • Civil Rights Coordinator: Stephanie Andler, Superintendent, sandler@orondo.wednet.edu, 509-784-1333 • Concerns about sex discrimination, including sexual harassment: • Title IX Coordinator: Stephanie Andler, Superintendent, sandler@orondo.wednet.edu, 509-784-1333 • Concerns about disability discrimination: • Section 504 Coordinator: Stephanie Andler, Superintendent, orondo@palisades.wednet.edu, 509-784-1333 • Concerns about discrimination based on gender identity: • Gender-Inclusive Schools Coordinator: Stephanie Andler, Superintendent, orondo@palisades.wednet.edu, 509-784-1333 To submit a written complaint, describe the conduct or incident that may be discriminatory and send it by mail, fax, email, or hand delivery to the school principal, district superintendent, or civil rights coordinator.

The Civil Rights Coordinator must make sure a prompt and thorough investigation takes place. The investigation must be completed within 30 calendar days unless you agree to a different timeline. If your complaint involves exceptional circumstances that require a longer investigation, the Civil Rights Coordinator will notify you in writing with the anticipated date for their response. When the investigation is complete, the school district superintendent or the staff member leading the investigation will send you a written response. This response will include: • A summary of the results of the investigation • A determination of whether the school district failed to comply with civil rights laws • Any corrective measures or remedies needed • Notice about how you can appeal the decision What are the next steps if I disagree with the outcome? If you do not agree with the outcome of your complaint, you may appeal the decision to the Palisades School Board and then to the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI). More information about this process, including important timelines, is included in the district’s Nondiscrimination Procedure 3210P and Sexual Harassment Procedure 3205P which can be found on our Policies webpage.(https://beccaf89.wixsite.com/orondo/policies-and-procedureshttps://beccaf89.wixsite.com/orondo/policies-and-procedures) I already submitted an HIB complaint - what will my school do? Harassment, intimidation, or bullying (HIB) can also be discrimination if it's related to a protected class. If you give your school a written report of HIB that involves discrimination or sexual harassment, your school will notify the Civil Rights Coordinator. The school district will investigate the complaint using both the Nondiscrimination Procedure (3210P) and the HIB Procedure (3207P) to fully resolve your complaint. Discrimination can happen when someone is treated differently or unfairly because they are part of a protected class, including their race, color, national origin, sex, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, religion, creed, disability, use of a service animal, or veteran or military status. Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI) All reports must start locally at the school or district level.

These rights transfer to the student when he or she reaches the age of 18 or attends a school beyond the high school level. Students to whom the rights have been transferred are "eligible students." Learn more on the US Department of Education website(https://studentprivacy.ed.gov/) Section 504 Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, commonly called “Section 504,” is a federal law that protects students from discrimination based on disability. Section 504 assures that students with disabilities have educational opportunities and benefits equal to those provided to students without disabilities. To be eligible, a student must have a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities. A 504 Plan helps a child with special health care needs to fully participate in school. Usually, a 504 Plan is used by a general education student who is not eligible for special education services. A 504 Plan lists accommodations related to the child's disability and required by the child so that he or she may participate in the general classroom setting and educational programs. For example, a 504 Plan may include: • Plans to make the school wheelchair-accessible • Your child's assistive technology needs during the school day • Permission for your child to type assignments instead of writing them by hand • Permission for your child to hand in assignments late due to illness or a hospital stay Your child may be eligible for accommodations under a 504 Plan if he or she has a physical or mental health disability that limits one or more major life functions.

Athletics Handbook and Documents

Our Story First People Orondo was first home to the Entiat People, šnt̕iyátkʷəxʷ, meaning "grass in the water" in the Interior Salish language. Orondo and the surrounding area are the traditional lands where the Entiat People and their neighbors have fished along the rivers, hunted in the hills, and gathered plants since time immemorial. By the 1880s, the Entiat People had been forced from their traditional homelands, and many lived on the Colville Reservation. Some of the Entiat People refused to move to reservations and took allotments along the rivers, including Chief Silicosaket, who had a homestead just a few miles upriver from Orondo at Entiat. Today, many of the Entiat People are members of the Confederated Tribes of the Colville Reservation. Early Explorers In 1804, Presidents Thomas Jefferson sent the American Corps of Discovery, led by Meriwether Lewis and William Clark, to explore America's new lands west of the Rocky Mountains. The Expedition passed just 100 miles south of Orondo on its way to the Pacific Ocean. In 1811, Canadian explorer and fur-trader David Thompson journeyed the Columbia River past present-day Orondo, becoming the first know non-Native to reach the area. The Thompson expedition camped along the banks of the Columbia River, trading with the Native People, and studying the local animals and plants. The same year, Fort Okanogan, a fur-trading post, was built 100 miles upriver from Orondo, bringing new explorers and traders to the region. A small population of Chinese miners also populated spots along the Columbia and Entiat Rivers throughout the mid-to-late 1800's. Oregon Trail The Oregon Trail stretched more than 2,000 miles from Independence, Missouri, to the Oregon Territory, which included Orondo. Hoping for new opportunities in the West, settlers traveled the Oregon Trail. The journey was hard and took up to six months by wagon. The wagons were often so full of belongings and food for the long trek that the people walked much of the way. Between 1840 and 1860, somewhere between 300,000 and 400,000 settlers traveled the Oregon Trail. Some of the earliest settlers in Orondo included Dr. John Brown Smith, Eli and Charlotte Fisher, Winfield Gehr, Fred Carpenter, John McMillan, Francis Williams, Calvin French, Richard Purcell, and Mary and Robert Cannon. Dr. John Brown Smith & Orondo Origins Dr. John Brown Smith arrived in Orondo on the 4th of July in 1884, at the age of 47, and established a town. By 1887, he had opened the first store, served as its first postmaster, and engaged in mercantile and milling businesses. Over time, Dr. Smith donated land in Orondo for schools, public buildings, wharves, steamboat landings, and a park. In 1889, he started a newspaper, The Orondo News, to promote the town, which lasted just one year. Dr. Smith served in the Washington State legislature twice in the 1890s. In 1895, he married schoolteacher Valeria A. Haynes, with whom he had a son, John H.D. Smith. Other early families in Orondo included the Kunkles, Vaughns, Sparks, and Koehlers. Several farmers had begun farming in Waterville, but moved to Orondo after seeing its potential, including Matt Miles, M.B. Howe, and Adam Thompson. Orondo's First Orchards Eli and Charlotte Fisher arrived in 1886, becoming the area's first orchardists. Charlotte planted peaches that grew into thriving trees within a few years. Soon after, Eli Fisher, Dr. Smith, and other community members planted 600 more peach trees, creating productive orchards and establishing the Orondo area as a major fruit-growing region. The earliest fruit orchards were small and almost exclusively planted with soft fruits – peaches, apricots, plums, prunes, and pears. The Fisher family opened the first large-scale orchard development in Orondo by 1910, known as the 120-acre Fisher Orchard Tracts, operated by the family's Orondo Development Company. Shipping & Transportation As Orondo grew, the Orondo and Entiat ferries began operating along the Columbia River, transporting wheat to Wenatchee. The Great Northern Railroad arrived in Spokane and Wenatchee in 1892, connecting eastern Washington to St. Paul, Minnesota. In 1893, the railroad was built on the Entiat side of the Columbia River, to the great disappointment of those in Orondo. As a result, residents organized the Orondo Shipping Company, which offered several stagecoach rides a day to and from Waterville. Thanks to the railroads, by 1906, apples grown in Washington were sold all around the world. A second railroad arrived through the Okanogan Valley in 1914. The last grain shipment on steamboats on the Columbia River was in 1910, but the Orondo ferry ran until December 31, 1959, shortly before the completion of the Rocky Reach Dam and reservoir in 1961. Between 1905 and 1915, and "apple craze" swept across eastern Washington. The rich and fertile soil, combined with the dry climate, sunny days, and the healthy supply of water, made the Orondo area a superior location for apple farming. Farmers planted orchards all over the state, including in Orondo, and Washington soon became the top apple-producing state in the country. Most orchards were small and family-owned, but some bigger commercial orchards also began to appear during this time. The Orondo Community Packing Company was established in 1917, where thousands of boxes were packed every year, helping Orondo's farmers ship fruit around the world. National Apple Day started in 1905, which became National Apple Week in 1920. Orondo Grange No. 514 The Grange is a national farmers' group that started in 1867 to give rural communities a place to meet and work together. Unlike many groups at the time, women could join as equal members. The Orondo Grange No. 514 was organized on March 30, 1912. Members met every two weeks at the Orondo schoolhouse while they built the first grange building. In 1913, the new grange building was completed, and the Orondo Grange held a grand opening dance. In 1933, the Orondo community organized Grange No. 1015, which was active for nearly 75 years before merging with the East Wenatchee chapter in 2008. Orondo Schools One of the most impactful events for Orondo was the formation of Orondo School District No. 13 on November 12, 1888. Miss Cora Brown was its first schoolteacher, Dr. John Brown Smith served as it's first clerk, and Jim L. Sparks and Eli C. Fisher served as its first directors. Classes were first held in the Gehrs Store building and Orondo Hotel while locals built the first schoolhouse, a one-room wooden building. In 1912, the schoolhouse was moved one-quarter mile east and replaced with a new brick building in 1919 that overlooked the Columbia River. The brick schoolhouse served as the town's school, and the original wood building was used as housing for teachers and bus drivers until its demolition in the 1940s. The third and newest Orondo school building was constructed in 1990. The Great Northern transcontinental railroad arrived in Spokane and Wenatchee in 1892, connecting Eastern Washington to St. Paul, Minnesota. A second railroad line arrived through the Okanogan Valley in 1914. The railroad meant more people could travel and live in Orondo, and that its delicious fruits could be shipped across the country and internationally. By 1906, apples grown in Washington were sold as far as Australia, Japan, the United Kingdom, South Africa, Egypt, and Latin America. In 1927, the town of Yakima baked the world's largest apple pie to promote the region's apple industry. Auvil Fruit Company In 1928, Grady and Lillie Auvil, together with Grady's brothers Rober and David Auvil, purchased 22 acres of land in Orondo and launched the Auvil Fruit Company. Their work transformed the fruit industry, and they would go on to achieve industry recognition as the source of several new fruits, including Red Haven peaches, Red Gold nectarines, Rainier cherries, and many apple types, including Granny Smith, Fuji, Gala, and Honey Crisp. For Grady's contributions to the fruit industry, Washington Governor Gary Locke awarded him the Washington Medal of Merit in 1998. Times of Change In the 1930s, the Dust Bowl and economic hardship drove families from states like Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Texas to towns like Orondo where they work in the orchards. During World War II, with much of the labor force occupied in wartime industries, the United States and Mexico launched the Bracero Program, bringing Mexican workers to fill critical agricultural and railroad jobs in the United States. Between 1943 and 1947, 220,640 Braceros were contracted nationwide – 13,809 worked in Washington State – laying the foundation for a lasting Latino presence in the state's agricultural industry. After the program ended, Braceros also become landowners in the area, contributing to Orondo's important Latino community that has lasted into the twenty-first century. In 1989, Washington designated the apple as an official state symbol to commemorate its centennial year. Modern Apple Industry The 1950s marked a turning point in the modernization of the apple industry, introducing innovations that transformed the harvesting, processing, and distribution of apples. Cold storage warehouses, developed during this area, allowed apples to remain crisp for months, making them available in grocery stores year-round. In 1958, a simple yet impactful change occurred when wooden boxes were replaced with lightweight cardboard cartons, streamlining shipping and handling. These advancements not only revolutionized apple production but also cemented Washington's reputation as a global leader in apple growing – a legacy that endures today. Beyond apples, Orondo has become popular for its outdoor recreational opportunities and its offerings as a quieter country life for those who enjoy the small community feel.
