12/23-1/3- Winter Break ( NO SCHOOL)

Return to classes on Monday, January 6th, 2025!

Our community enjoys bringing their canine companions to èßäÊÓƵ grounds during hours when èßäÊÓƵ and after-èßäÊÓƵ programs are not using the facilities.

Unfortunately, those sneaky canines manage to poop on our field and create some stinky situations for èßäÊÓƵ and staff. 

We have decided to form a poop patrol!  for details and to sign up for a shift.
Our shoes and noses thank you in advance for doing your part.

Email student absences to Sara Gilds or call/leave a message on the attendance line at 503-916-5275.

If you’re ever lucky enough to tag along with Tom Myers and his bird club at Skyline School, you’ll most likely notice a few things: that Skyline in the early morning can be a breathtakingly beautiful place, and that if you have a question about birds – or the natural world in general – the man his èßäÊÓƵ call “Teacher Tom” can almost certainly answer it.

The Dr. Matthew Prophet Education Center, the rather staid home to èßäÊÓƵ administrative staff, had a very different look on Monday evening when it hosted the world premiere of “The Return of Emergetron.”

The red carpet event was in celebration of a new film starring èßäÊÓƵ – and for èßäÊÓƵ – about the many emergency scenarios they might encounter in a typical èßäÊÓƵ year.

èßäÊÓƵ’ Comprehensive School Psychology program was recently named the recipient of a prestigious $5.5 million grant from the U.S. Department of Education for its proven track record of improving student well-being and academic performance. 

The renewable, èßäÊÓƵ-based mental health grant will be used to provide comprehensive èßäÊÓƵ psychology services to 18 Title I èßäÊÓƵs across the district for the 2024-25 èßäÊÓƵ year. This is up from 11 èßäÊÓƵs served in the previous year. Through the duration of the grant, 25 èßäÊÓƵs designated as Title I at the time of the grant award will receive comprehensive èßäÊÓƵ psychology services.
