as explained and clarified by the Guardian in "Advent of Divine Justice"

To provide an opportunity for:

close association and fellowship, both social and spiritual
intellectual training in the history, principles and teachings of the Bahá'í Faith
the application to one's life of the principles of moral conduct

Oregon's National Bahá'í School Committees

Oregon has two National Bahá'í School Committees, each of which organizes and operates a School, consisting of one or more sessions, in their service area. These committees are agencies of the National Spiritual Assembly of the Baha'is of the United States, which sponsors the Schools. The Committees are coordinated by the Education and Schools Office at the Bahá'í National Center.

The Western Oregon Bahá'í School Committee currently organizes and operates three sessions of the Western Oregon Bahá'í School:

Carmel Bahá'í School for Youth, a session for junior youth and youth, in early summer
Badasht, a summer session for all ages, in mid-August
The Winter School at Menucha, a session for adults and mature youth and junior youth, Friday through Sunday of Thanksgiving weekend

The Eastern Oregon Bahá'í School Committee sponsors the Eastern Oregon Summer School at Suttle Lake, an all-ages session in late July or early August.
