This is just wow. Our kiddo’s middle school is on the list of closures. I would much rather our $ go to academics and social-emotional learning than half-empty facilities. www.oregonlive.com/education/20...

These 14 Portland schools could close under district's consolidation plan
The school district is also proposing a host of attendance boundary changes and program shifts.

Only in #PDX would a county government hire an attorney with the company name “Rational Unicorn Legal Services” 😆 Is anyone surprised that the quality of the legal advice offered by said unicorn is questionable? All joking aside, it’s things like this that make people trust government less. 🙄

This is just the most depressing story I think I’ve ever read about education. As a white parent whose kid is struggling in public school, I don’t even know how to interpret the story/takeaways in the “right” way. What’s good for one child or family is not always good for the system. 🤯

Enough said. Let’s move on, shall we? Our leaders want us to ignore the context, but voters are smarter than that. “Portland Police do not want to be judged by their misconduct on the streets in 2020 like I should not be judged solely for the tweets I posted in that same year.”

😂 Accurate. “The state has been treated like a pit stop for those traveling from Los Angeles to Seattle. Portland has flirted with fame over the years, such as in the early 2000s when the Rose City was known as a place where young people go to retire.” www.opb.org/article/2026...
