Governor Kotek orders flags to half-staff for Silver Rail Elementary victims and survivors

The signed press release directs flags at Oregon public institutions to be flown at half-staff on October 16, 2026, from sunrise to sunset, in remembrance of those who lost their lives at Silver Rail Elementary School. It also points to a separate press release honoring the victims and survivors, but this notice itself only gives the half-staff instruction and does not add a different schedule or scope.
