11:30 update from Principal Lou Bailey:
Dear WLHS Parents:
The bear sighting occurred in Wilderness park behind the baseball and football fields. OSP and ODFW were immediately notified and are on site, but they have not tracked the bear. At no time did the bear come on to campus. This morning I did an announcement to all students telling them to stay clear of Camassia Nature Park and Wilderness Park. Please talk with your student about taking the necessary precautions to stay clear of this area.
Sincerely, Lou Bailey, Principal
