W ith in-person learning now back on the table, the Medford School Board is lobbying Governor Brown, state health officials, and the OSAA for a return to school sports and other activities. After voting to approve the action at a February 4 meeting, the Medford School District Board of Education released a letter urging officials to allow for athletics and other extracurricular activities to resume. The board members wrote that Oregon stands nearly alone in avoiding high school sports this late into the 2020-21 school year, citing the National Federation of State High School Associations in saying that Oregon is among only three states that have yet to play at all this year.
