PRESS RELEASE:
The hallways, playgrounds and classrooms in Bend-La Pine Schools will soon be filled with school spirit as thousands of students and staff don the colors of their favorite college, university, trade school or other institute of post-secondary education during our annual College Day celebration Thursday, Nov. 16.
