For the first time since Sept. 20, 2016, The Dalles volleyball team defeated Pendleton, doing so in four sets, 25-15, 25-17, 7-25 and 26-24 in varsity action Tuesday at Kurtz Gym.

As many as 43.5 million Americans may have dyslexia, and about 3.5 percent of students — slightly more than two million children — are receiving special educational services for a reading disorder.

The Dalles senior Bailey LeBreton chose not use her learning disability as an excuse or crutch – She finished her senior year with a 3.94 grade point average, and that accomplishment is an example to others that anything is possible as long as they press forward and make education a top priority.

LeBreton signed on to play volleyball and softball at George Fox University with an interior design major and a minor in organizational communications.
