HERMISTON â Hermiston School District had a lot to celebrate on Tuesday, April 13.
The district welcomed all students back to the classroom full time for the first time in over a year, and celebrated the groundbreaking for two new schools.
âThis day could not get any better,â Rocky Heights Elementary Principal Stefani Wyant said.
She said she was thrilled to see all of her school full again, and to attend the groundbreaking ceremony for a new, larger Rocky Heights that will be constructed in the current athletic fields next to the school.
The softball fields there are in the process of being moved to a new softball complex next to Hermiston High School, on the former fairgrounds. Students will continue to attend at the current building for the 2021-22 school year while construction is underway, before transferring to the new school in the fall of 2022.

HERMISTON â As Cindy Middleton accepted Hermistonâs Woman of the Year award on Wednesday, Feb. 24, she thought back to the day in 1992 that her father called her while she was away at college to tell her that her own mother, Judy Bracher, was Woman of the Year.
âI was deeply touched by the way that Dad described what Mom was being recognized for,â she remembered.
Middleton was one of several people recognized during the Hermiston Chamber of Commerceâs annual Distinguished Citizens Awards banquet, along with Ken Huber as Man of the Year. The event, which usually hosts several hundred people in the Hermiston Community Center, was limited to award winners and their families this year and was held in a greenhouse at Bennett Botanical Gardens.
