The Hood River County School District is talking with the Hood River County Health Department and One Community Health about offering COVID-19 vaccination clinics as the vaccines become available for younger children. District Superintendent Rich Polkinghorn said there are no definitive plans as of yet. Polkinghorn adds a high percentage of the County’s students that are eligible to receive the shots have done so: 64% of those age 12-18. Polkinghorn says the Oregon Department of Education hasn’t yet issued any kind of guidance on what kind of metrics will be used to determine when school COVID restrictions can be eased.
