Healthy eating throughout the summer helps students grow strong and do well in
school. That’s why we’re happy to share that the Oregon Summer EBT program is back for summer 2026! This program gives families money to help buy groceries when school is out.
Each eligible student can get $120 for food over the summer.

Who can get this help?
Your child may automatically qualify if:
• Your family gets SNAP, TANF, or Oregon Health Plan (Medicaid) and meets income rules.
• Your child gets free or reduced-price school meals and meets income rules.
• Your child is in foster care, part of a migrant education program, homeless, in a
qualified Head Start, or part of the Food Program on Indian Reservations.

Your child may be eligible by application if:
• Your family meets the income requirements for free or reduced-price meals at school
• Your child attends a school that participates in the National School Lunch Program (NSLP)
or School Breakfast Program (SBP).
What else should you know?
• If you got Summer EBT in 2025 through an approved application, you don’t need to apply
again. Your family will get the benefits on June 5, 2026.
• If you’re new to the program, you must apply by Sept. 1, 2026.
• You’ll get the money on an Oregon EBT card, which you can use at most grocery stores,
farmers markets, and other places that accept EBT.
Need help or want to apply?
• Visit sebt.oregon.gov or email summerebtinfo@odhs.oregon.gov.
• Starting June 1, 2026, you can also call the Oregon Summer EBT Call Center at 1-833-673-
7328, Monday–Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Pacific Time.

Myrtle Crest students and staff would like to extend a heartfelt thank-you to our community for the incredible new track! It has been inspiring to watch this project come to life over the past few years. Seeing our community come together in support of our students has been truly remarkable. To everyone who played a part—thank you!

From the Desk of Steve Perkins April 20, 2026 If you haven’t had the opportunity to see the completed track, now is the time. The track project is finished. We hosted a Jr. High Track meet last week for the first time in 20 years and we will be hosting a high school track meet on Wednesday, May 13th for the first time in over 25 years. A special thanks goes out to Tank Parrish, the Myrtle Point Booster Club and the Myrtle Point Youth Sports Program for their financial contributions to the project. This has truly been a community effort. Another project that was just completed in the past couple of weeks is the High School Greenhouse. Our High School Agriculture Program will have a state of the art greenhouse for our Horticulture Program. The 2026-27 student calendar has been approved. Our first day of school will be Monday, August 31st. We will not have school on Friday, September 4th, so families will still have a four-day Labor Day Weekend. The calendar continues to enable us to have no school the week of Thanksgiving, so families can make plans to travel that week without missing school. For planning purposes, the last day before Christmas break will be December 18th and we will return to school on Tuesday, January 5th. The Maple Seismic Retrofit Project has been moved to the summer of 2027. After careful consideration with our Engineers and Architects, we decided that we are going to apply for a second Seismic upgrade which would make this project a two-phase project. This is an exciting time in the Myrtle Point School District. I’m happy with our upgraded facilities throughout the district. The end-of-the-year is approaching, which means we will be hosting numerous concerts, activities, etc. I will have specific dates of activities in my next district update in early May. Steve Perkins, Myrtle Point School District Superintendent
