❤️We LOVE to see student-centered learning and the rise of homeschooling getting coverage by Forbes! “As homeschooling gains momentum, it underscores the evolving landscape of education and the increasing demand for alternative learning models. This is a shift toward educational diversity, where families have the autonomy to choose the educational path that best aligns with their values, goals, and aspirations.” 💪Our School Choice amendment empowers and protects home education!

School Choice may be an answer to get them back on track. ❤ ️If they are still eligible to go back to grades K-12, they would be able to apply for a School Choice account and attend an online academy or any other school alternative or out-of-district public school that fits their learning needs! 🧑🔧 If they have dollars left over after graduating – they can use it to attend an Oregon college or trade school! 📚✍️ READ the amendments and SIGN the petitions (both please!) >> 🔗 in bio! . . . . . #LetThemLearn #LimitlessLearning #LimitlessPotential #SchoolChoiceAmendment #OpenEnrollmentAmendment #OregonEducation #SchoolChoice #OregonLearning #OregonSchools #EducationMatters #HomeschoolMom #ParentEducation #OregonKids
As Portland Public Schools works on district-wide systems upgrades, Lent Elementary is one of the first - and most needed. Lent is identified as a Title 1 school. The purpose of Title 1 is to provide additional support for schools that serve children who have risk factors like poverty or high mobility. Lent sits adjacent to I-205. The existing mechanical systems were implemented long ago before climate change impacted the mild temperatures in our region. School design of the past didn't include cooling, and the fresh air passive systems have been impacted by the vehicle exhaust. Through the upgrade, Lent school will soon benefit from a cooling system and a steady supply of filtered fresh air. We view this new system as a monumental improvement, and we're thrilled to participate in an upgrade to a school that badly needs it. We consider this a 1000% improvement.

Why are these Oregonians signing?

👨👩👧👦 Families want stability of programs, class size, and services in their local school. 🏫💰 But cyclical budget deficits and overall unpredictability due to strikes, weather, and COVID policies hurt a child's education. As a result, parents need to have some choice or voice in their child’s education. 🧑🎓🍎 🌟💥Yet another reason we need School Choice and Open Enrollment: to provide families with stable options for their child. School choice allows parents to navigate uncertain times and have feasible options that they can have some control over. 🧠🔍 Learn more and SIGN our petitions >> https://letthemlearnoregon.com/take-action/ . . . . . #LetThemLearn #LimitlessLearning #LimitlessPotential #SchoolChoiceAmendment #OpenEnrollmentAmendment #OregonEducation #SchoolChoice #OregonLearning #OregonSchools #EducationMatters #HomeschoolMom #ParentEducation #OregonKids

Myth: kids need phones during school. Here’s an idea. It will be wildly unpopular and never happen. But we all know it’s true. Phones in school are destroying students. Teacher’s can’t compete with the constant dopamine hits kids are taking ALL DAY LONG. “Just take their phones” you say. You try that one. I’m tired of that battle. What if we outlawed phones during school hours? Crazy, I know. Ridiculous even. @howardstreetcharter_salem has done it with a pouch system that locks students phones in a pouch during school hours. Kids keep their phones on them, but they’re are locked away. If you or someone you know is part of the Howard Street Charter community, I’d love to hear your voice. Is it scalable? Could we implement across the state? Seems like a no-brainer to me… #redfororegon

New data presented Friday in The New York Times shows an estimated 26% of public school students nationwide were considered chronically absent last school year, up from 15% before the pandemic. Rates of chronic absenteeism are worse than the national average in most school districts across Oregon. Out of nearly 200 districts in the state, only about 20 met or had better attendance rates than the national average. In Salem-Keizer schools, nearly half of the district's 40,000-plus students were chronically absent in 2023. District spokesperson Aaron Harada said the district is struggling with attendance but working to rebuild it. “We are encouraged to see some positive attendance trends across our schools this year,” Harada said.

Good design makes the built environment accessible to all. That's why we're working with Portland Public Schools on their initiative to make 100% of the district's schools ADA compliant. It's a large undertaking, and we're honored to be involved. We are removing barriers of all kinds throughout the District and reimagining spaces. This project is truly remarkable. More than 7,500 students district-wide will be positively impacted by these upgrades. Creating environments that elevate the health, dignity and independence for all is critical. 📸 PPS #deia #accessibility #publicschool #portlandschools #portand #portlandarchitecture #oregonschools #portlandpublicschools

Oregon friends: this is for you! …but sadly it’s happening everywhere 🌎 Students fell behind in the pandemic; we all know that. The one requirement for spending federal aid? 20% has to go to academic recovery. But what does that mean? Because when districts are left to decide themselves, the term becomes meaningless. The result? 197 different districts doing 197 different things. “If 50 - 60% are not performing well, that means our core instruction needs to change.”
Update: Unconfirmed reports of gangs targeting South Salem High School are having desperate parents scrambling to pick up their children early from school This is a developing story. #southsalemhighschool #gangs #gangactivity #breaking #update #schools #oregonschools #salemkeizerpublicschools #developingstory #salemoregon #gunviolence #news #podcast

Ashbrook’s chess club players dominated the regional Chess For Success tournament at Talmadge MS this past weekend. Our Middle School team came first overall and qualified for the State team tournament, with 3 players earning perfect scores (5/5) and 5 players qualifying for the State individual tournament! Our 5th Grade players did not place in the team event but they played some amazing games! Their courage and composure were commendable given that this was the first tournament for most of them. #ashbrookindependentschool #whyweloveashbrook #chess #chessclub #corvallis #corvallisoregon #privateschool #independentschool #oregonschools
Superintendent of Lebanon (OR) Schools, Jennifer Meckley, has been a graduate of LHS, a teacher, and a principal before taking the helm. #schoolsuperintendent #lebanonoregon #lebanonor #kkphotopdx #oregonschools #oregonheadshotphotographer
Regrettably, this bill removes the ability of teachers, school boards, and parents to make decisions about which materials are age-appropriate for classrooms and libraries in a given community and puts it firmly in the hands of far-removed bureaucrats in state government. This is another step that undermines parent and community confidence in Oregon's public school system, but does absolutely nothing to improve #AcademicExcellence or #studentprogress in #oregonschools. #LocalControl #schoolchoice #SchoolChoiceNow #failingschools #letthemlearn #forthechildren
Our MS theater program acted their hearts out during their production of “Journey to the World’s Edge” this past weekend. All their hard work and dedication was on display. Congratulations to cast and crew for a job well done! #ashbrookindependentschool #corvallis #corvallisoregon #independentschool #privateschool #whyweloveashbrook #oregonschools

🏡🍎 As someone who cherishes the value of education and community, I've seen firsthand how living in a neighborhood with great schools can make all the difference. Not only do these homes keep their sparkle over time, but they also become cozy nests that attract families looking for the best for their little ones. It's like finding a hidden treasure in the heart of Oregon. If you're dreaming of a home in Oregon, here are some sweet spots where education shines brightest: 1️⃣ Lake Oswego School District 2️⃣ Riverdale School District 3️⃣ West Linn-Wilsonville School District 4️⃣ Beaverton School District 5️⃣ Sherwood School District 🍎 Finding a home in a top-notch school district means more than just great resale value; it's about giving your family access to wonderful learning experiences and being part of a supportive community. It's a decision that touches hearts and shapes futures. . . . #GellatlyProperties #pnwrealestate #EducationFirst #PortlandNests #OregonRealEstateWithHeart #MidlifeDreams #FamilyFocused #HomeSweetHome #OregonSchools #PortlandLife #RealEstateWithLove #FindYourFutureHome #PortlandOregon #HomeownershipDreams #InvestInFamily #RealEstateWithAPurpose
