2. On Thursday, April 16, 2026, Southridge High School, located at 9625 SW 125th Ave., Beaverton, is hosting an annual Veterans Visit.  This is sponsored by Kevin Bickler, a Social Studies teacher at Southridge High School. Time of event; 0845 to 1530 (Veterans can arrive between 0800-0815 to get set up).

Details: Food, snacks, water, and coffee will be provided. Social studies classes will be brought down throughout the day to be able to meet in groups of 4-6 people with Veteran attendees about their experiences in the military. Parking will be reserved for attendees, including handicapped spots.

They would love to see as many veterans attend as possible as this event is so valuable to their school, the community and their students.
