The October 28, 2026 Hood River County School District Board meeting included updates on student safety, school programs, literacy training, local food sourcing, enrollment, and state education standards. District-paid LETRS literacy training was discussed at about $900 per section. The board also reviewed enrollment projections showing a decline of 421 students since 2013–14 and an estimated roughly $5 million reduction in funding associated with lower enrollment. The district described its ongoing purchases of locally sourced apples and pears from county growers through the Gorge Farmers Collective; no new food contract or vendor award was presented.
