Per Oregon Law, students that are missing vaccines must be excluded from school until records are up to date or have an appropriate exemption in place. Families that have students with missing vaccines were notified via parent square in the last couple of weeks. Please bring in all updated records to the school office as soon as you can.
If you need help getting your child immunized, the best place to start is with their primary care provider. If your child does not have a primary care provider, they may obtain vaccines at any of the locations listed below with an appointment. Many pharmacies also offer immunizations. It is best to call them directly to inquire about what vaccines they offer for your child’s age. Please note: Primary Care appointments are currently difficult to schedule across all health systems. Please do not wait until the last minute to schedule an appointment.

Students, parents, and staff members, a quick reminder: Oregon law prohibits the use of handheld devices while driving (ORS 811.507). This means no texting, calling, or checking social media unless you're using a hands-free setup in your vehicle. Please keep your eyes on the road and travel safely to and from school! If you need to make a call or send a message, pull over safely first.
Patrol officers have recently observed an increase in cell phone use while driving within our area, specifically in our school zones. Let’s all remember to put down our devices and do our best to reduce distractions to keep our roads safer!

The Community Enrichment Committee of the Seaside Chamber of Commerce is excited to announce an Open Call for Artists to submit their work for an upcoming semi-permanent public art installation: TRAC – Trash Receptacle Art Campaign. What exactly does public art do for a community and why participate?
Public art plays a powerful role in enriching our community, both visually and culturally and is accessible to everyone, regardless of age, income, or background. Public art is a valuable tool for cultural expression and community development. It not only enriches the visual environment but also strengthens the emotional and social bonds that tie a community together. Here are several ways public art benefits our Seaside community:
- Fosters a Sense of Identity and Pride – Who are we?
- Beautifies Public Spaces – Transform the ordinary into extraordinary!
- Promotes Inclusivity and Diversity – Tell your story!
- Stimulates Economic Development – Become a landmark!
- Enhances Well-Being and Mental Health – Increase happiness & calm!
Submittal Deadline is February 28th, 2025
Don't miss out! Reserve your 2024-2025 Yearbook now! Only $65! You can pay Mrs. Boutin in person with cash/check/card, or pay online at https://seasidehighschool.myschoolcentral.com/
When children are hungry, they aren't able to focus on the job of learning. The Food4Kids Seaside Program is available to help and is offered to students at Seaside Secondary School (grades 6-12) who do not have access to consistent meals on the weekends. Food is fuel, and we want to help your child be fueled and ready to learn each week!
The volunteers at Food4Kids provide a bag filled with food on the last school day before each weekend. Students will bring this food home from school on Fridays.
If you have more than one child in need of a food bag, please fill out this form for each child.
If you are driving yourself to school you need to stop by the Main Office and fill out a parking permit application so that you can receive your student parking permit sticker.

Office hours are Monday – Friday, 7:30 am – 4:30 pm.
Reminder when parking on our steep hill to curb your tires to help avoid any accidental rolling.

Please click the LINK here for bus stop information.
If you cannot find your bus stop or believe it is incorrect, please contact our transportation supervisor at 503-738-7150 or cpeters@seasidek12.org.
Please be at your bus stop 5 minutes earlier than the scheduled pick-up time. Bus times vary due to traffic levels. Bus route information is posted on our school website. See link above.
During the 2024-2025 school year we will again be using our bus badge program. This program increases the safety of our students on our buses by allowing us to know who is on the bus at all times and at which stop they exited.
Here's how it works. Student ID Bus Badge utilizes an ID attached to a student’s backpack or a lanyard which communicates with the Bus Pass scanner located on the bus. Students will scan the badge as students enter and exit the bus instead of having to take paper pencil attendance.
If you prefer to opt your bus rider out of this program please complete this form. It is important to note that students who opt-out of the electronic monitoring portion of the program will still need to show their Student ID Bus Pass to ride a district school bus. Their badge will just not have an active barcode to scan.
Q: My student needs to ride the bus home with another student today - what should I do?
A: We must have requests in writing, preferably no later than noon, and are unable to accept permission over the phone. Instead you may:
Send your student with a note to give to the Main Office in the morning with the date, the name of the student your student will be riding with, and your contact information.
OR
You may email the request to sgiess@seasidek12.org or kbrenden@seasidek12.org If you need further assistance please call the main office at (503)738-5586.
