The Corvallis School District is hosting its sixth annual Back-to-School Health & Resource Fair on Friday, August 14 from 8:30 am to 2:30 pm at Corvallis Junior High – formerly Linus Pauling Middle School. This is a free event that is open to anyone in the community.
To make this happen, Corvallis Schools teamed up with Benton County Health Services, Samaritan Health Services, Casa Latinos Unidos, and InterCommunity Health Network Coordinated Care Organization.
“By offering these essential health resources, we’re supporting the well-being of students and families so every child starts the 2026–27 school year ready to thrive,” said Assistant Superintendent Melissa Harder. “In line with our Healthy Communities board goal, these services build community care and belonging, and thanks to our partners, they’re available at no cost for the whole family to enjoy.”
Here’s some of the services the fair will offer:
- Assistance League Operation School Bell clothing and hygiene kits
- Dental, vision, and hearing screenings
- Sports physicals
- Kids vaccines – including Measles and Tdap
- School registration
- School bus registration
Also included:
- Free lunch (Halal option available)
- Family activities
- Community resources and booths
