KLCC s Brian Bull reports on how this year s annual Oregon Asian Celebration has been reinvented to accommodate COVID-19 protocols, and the message of unity it s promoting at a time of anti-Asian sentiment and violence have made recent headlines across the U.S.
As opposed to one day of festivities, this year’s event will be held on four consecutive Fridays beginning May 7th, at the downtown Eugene Park Blocks. Face masks, social distancing, and other protocols will be observed, as celebrants mark the Year of the Ox in an outdoor night market.

Hermosa Beach School District, an elementary district south of Santa Monica, laid off its only PE teacher in February.

San Lorenzo Unified, south of Oakland, voted to eliminate 12 PE teachers, including its entire elementary PE staff.
