Thank you to our sponsor: Pacific Crest Council, Scouting America

Spanning from the Pacific shores to the Cascade peaks, and from the high desert to the low valleys, the Pacific Crest Council delivers Scouting programs to youth and adult volunteers throughout central and southern Oregon.

They empower young people to become confident, capable, and compassionate leaders. Their safe and inclusive environment fosters teamwork, personal growth, and community service. With dedicated volunteers and community partnerships, they guide Scouts on a transformative journey, instilling values of integrity, respect, and selfless leadership.

Through outdoor adventures, leadership training, and mentorship, they equip Scouts with essential skills and values to make a positive impact. Together, they build a better future, one Scout at a time.

Thanks to Scout for being a sponsor for !

Scout saves online, hybrid, virtual, and remote learning programs in Oregon hundreds of hours of busywork a year.

Scout is the first student information system you'll actually love. By integrating with online LMSes, meeting platforms, and curriculum providers to centralize engagement and assignment data, producing compliance documentation for audits, and automating family outreach to keep parents and students on track, Scout works for you, not against you. Scout's AI data agent can build custom reports and dashboards, update data, and answer questions in seconds to give teachers, principals, and administrators access to exactly the data they need whenever they need it.

Every partner gets personalized support from compliance experts and product engineers with a one-hour response commitment. Our implementation process involves understanding your school and your needs before working closely with your teachers and administrators to tailor the system to you.
