Staff, Students and Families,
On Monday, February 27 th , when you arrive at school, there will be a car wreck enclosed in a special
plexiglass trailer in the staff and student parking area. This trailer is scheduled for our school’s viewing
all week and is part of partnership project between ODOT and Joseph FCCLA. The purpose of its
presence is to be a reminder to all of the importance of driving distraction free. When you are behind
the wheel, please do not let anything shift your focus away from the road. Nothing is worth the dangers
of driving while distracted and risking your life and the lives of others. Do not allow passengers, stress,
sleepiness, phones, the radio, or food to take your eyes and mind of the road. Please allow this project
to create healthy conversations between you and your friends and family. Discuss ways to stay safe
while driving or riding in a car. You are just too loved to lose!
To visit the ODOT story and display ahead of time, please visit

At the end of the week, High School Students will have the opportunity to take the Driving Distraction
Free Pledge.

Dear JCS Family,
We wanted to make you all aware that today many schools around Oregon received anonymous, detailed reports of school shootings that occurred in their buildings, which were later found to be false reports. Joseph Charter School did not receive any false reports or phone calls but as a precaution, law enforcement was on campus today. We will continue to check doors, lock doors, work with law enforcement, be aware of our surroundings, and require parents to call the school before coming up to campus.
If Joseph Charter were to receive a call of this nature, an ALERT message via text, email, and phone call will be immediately sent out to all staff and parents. Please make sure the number/email you have provided the school is up to date at all times.
THANK YOU local law enforcement for all that you have done and continue to do.
If you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to call.
WE ARE HIRING!
