Safety Update for North Omak Elementary
Last night at approximately 5 p.m., a report was made regarding a suspicious person across the street from North Omak Elementary School. The Omak Police Department responded promptly and conducted an investigation, but no one matching the description was found.
In an abundance of caution, Omak Police provided additional officer presence at the school today to ensure the continued safety of our students and staff.
We appreciate the vigilance of our community and the swift response of law enforcement. As always, student safety remains our top priority. If you see something concerning, please report it to local authorities.
Excitement Builds at Omak High School’s Freshman Transition Night!
Omak High School recently welcomed 8th-grade students and their parents to Freshman Transition Night, an informative event designed to ease the transition into high school. The evening covered crucial topics such as graduation requirements, required classes, extracurricular activities, student responsibilities, and important paperwork that must be completed before the school year begins.
Principal David Kirk led the session, ensuring families understood the academic expectations and opportunities available at Omak High School. He also highlighted the various clubs and sports teams students can join to enrich their high school experience.
The event provided a valuable opportunity for students and parents to ask questions, plan ahead, and feel more confident about the transition to high school. With a clear understanding of what lies ahead, these soon-to-be freshmen are set up for a strong and successful start at Omak High School.

PIONEER WRESTLERS SHINE AT STATE!
The Omak Pioneer Boys Wrestling Team traveled to Tacoma on February 21-22 to battle it out at the State Tournament, and they did not disappoint! Twelve wrestlers made the trip, with eleven competing and leaving it all on the mat. The team secured a Top 10 finish, placing 8th overall!
TWO STATE CHAMPIONS!
Big congratulations to Darrell Nanpuya and Jessie Garcia, who both wrestled their way to the top and claimed state titles! Darrell, a three-time state champ, moved to 138 lbs, and Jessie made good on their pact by winning it all at 144 lbs! Their determination and grit paid off in a BIG way.
🔹 10 of our wrestlers notched at least one win
🔹 3 seniors led the charge—the rest will be back, hungry for more next year!
🔹 Hard work, heart, and hustle—these wrestlers gave it their all!
Shoutout to our girls' team too!
They brought the fight to the mat, with 5 of 7 placing at state! Leandra battled her way to the finals, and we couldn't be prouder of her performance. These girls are tough, talented, and inspiring!
Wrestling is more than just a sport—it's a test of discipline, strength, and resilience. The lessons learned on the mat last a lifetime, and we encourage anyone to give it a shot!
Next time you see these wrestlers, give them a high-five and tell them congrats! They earned it!
