An unvaccinated Estacada Middle School teacher died Saturday in what appears to be the first publicly reported case of an Oregon teacher succumbing to COVID-19.
Samantha Fox, 46, died one week after she tested positive for the coronavirus. Family members said that Fox, a sixth- and seventh-grade language arts teacher at the middle school, was a beloved member of the community who spent more than 20 years teaching in the school district.
