Box 3107 / 97208-3107 Superintendent Email: [email protected] OFFICE OF THE SUPERINTENDENT February 12, 2007 To the Portland Public Schools Board of Education, I am pleased to deliver to the Portland Board of Education and the entire Portland Public Schools community a proposed budget that – for the first time in more than a decade – does not propose sweeping budget cuts to our schools. Thanks to the Oregon Legislature’s reauthorization of our gap funding, and more importantly, Portland’s strong vote last November for the local option, we are facing several years of budget stability. We deeply appreciate the support from our legislators, our voters, our employees and our tireless parent advo- cates who worked so hard to pass the five-year local option. This would be a much different budget without them! And the work continues. Portland Public Schools has joined the Education Coalition to ask the Oregon Legislature to pass a budget for 2007-09 that includes $6.3 billion for K-12 education. That figure is higher than the Governor’s December budget proposal, but one that many legislators and the Governor have said they could support as the state economy continues to grow. We will continue to join the broad coalition of schools advocates to support a $6.3 billion State School Fund, and this PPS budget I present today is based on that figure. While still tight, the proposed budget offers hope as we deliver on our five-year Strategic Plan. I believe the stable funding will allow us to continue to increase student achievement from elementary grades through high school. And leveraging our staff in new and creative ways, we will take the first steps toward ensuring all of our students a well-rounded and enriched curriculum that includes wellness, music and the arts. With this budget, we will support more students with vital counseling services and will offer teachers greater professional develop- ment opportunities to work with colleagues to improve their practice. It also continues and increases support for targeted strategies proven to help our students learn and teachers educate. With stable finances, Portland Public Schools can move forward on the promise made in our Strategic Plan – that every student by name will meet or exceed academic standards and will be fully prepared to make produc- tive life decisions. We can do it, one step at a time. Staffing our schools to offer enrichment, professional development and counseling The majority of our budget goes directly to pay the employees who work directly with our students daily in our schools. Each school receives teaching staff based on the number of students enrolled over the past calendar year: 1 licensed teaching position for every 23.5 students in elementary, middle and K-8 schools, and 1 teaching position for every 22.7 students in high school. Thanks to the local option, we are able to preserve almost 400 teaching positions, and will maintain the same staffing ratios as in the last budget. That is not to say that every school will have exactly the same number of teachers as during the 2006-07 school Introductory Information - 3 2007/08 School District No. 1, Multnomah County, Oregon Superintendent’s Budget Message year. Some schools are growing in enrollment – either by attracting more neighborhood residents or by adding grades – and some have seen their enrollment drop. In some cases declining enrollment means those schools will manage with fewer teachers next year, although during both the current year and next year we are working to buffer the staffing cuts from dropping enrollment. Although we are using the same ratios for core school staffing, this proposed budget invests in school staff in new ways to educate the whole child: • Enriching the curriculum. Next school year, every elementary and K8 student should receive at least three enrichment classes every week – whether art, music or PE. Research shows (and students, teachers and families agree) that enrichment classes motivate and inspire youth and support greater student achievement. Note that I said “at least,” not “at most.” Many of our schools already offer strong enrich- ment – and we expect them to continue, and to add offerings – but far too

  • Bringing Off-Track Youth Into the Center of High School Reform Lessons and Tools from Leading Communities
    bringing off-track youth into the center of high school reform lessons and tools from leading communities June 2009 his toolkit was prepared by Jobs for the future’s Connected by 25 team. t Connected by 25 focuses on creating the systemic and policy changes necessary to develop and support effective models that prepare students who are not on track to graduation to complete high school and advance along pathways to postsecondary credentials. This toolkit would not be possible without the vision and persistent efforts of the people and communities that have been the pioneers in this work. Many of the tools draw directly on materials developed in those front-runner cities. In the communities funded through the Youth Transition Funders Group (YTFG) Strategic Assessment Initiative, we are indebted to: Boston: Kathy Hamilton, Kathi Mullin, and Neil Sullivan Las Vegas: Chanda Cook and Hilarie Robison New York City: Michele Cahill, Leah Hamilton, Peter Kleinbard, and JoEllen Lynch Philadelphia: Jenny Bogoni, Harvey Chism, Allie Mulvihill, and Laura Shubilla Portland, OR: Leslie Rennie-Hill, Carole Smith, and Zeke Smith San Jose: Matt Hamer and Maria Elena Riddle Washington, DC: Mark Ouellette and Greg Roberts These leaders, of course, worked with countless others inside and outside of their districts to envision, design, and implement reforms. The toolkit also owes a debt to the researchers who have helped to bring a sharp focus to this agenda, including Robert Balfanz of Johns Hopkins University; Liza Herzog of the Philadelphia Education Fund; Elaine Allensworth, John Q. Easton, and Melissa Roderick of the Consortium on Chicago School Research; and Lisa Cloitre and Tammy Battaglino of the Parthenon Group.

  • 2009 REPORT to the COMMUNITY Bodyvox, Foot Opera Files, (Photo: Michael Shea, Polara Studios): General Support Welcome
    2009 REPORT TO THE COMMUNITY BodyVox, Foot Opera Files, (Photo: Michael Shea, Polara Studios): General Support WELCOME Reflecting on this past year of financial challenges, we are struck by the resilience, creativity and determination of people in our region. Last year as we wrote this letter we faced an uncertain future and RACC vowed to do everything possible to support artists and arts organizations through this tough time. While the future remains murky, we have positive things to report from this past year – details of which run through this annual report. Thanks to enlightened and committed elected leaders, RACC held its entire grants program whole and supplemented it with Work for Art dollars, which increased by 19%. People in our region care and they give. The Transit Mall reopened with 10 previously sited artworks cleaned, conserved and re-installed in new locations. Joining them were 14 new artworks, creating a sizable public collection of Northwest sculptures. RACC was delighted to partner with TriMet throughout this four-year undertaking and will be caretakers of all the public art on the mall. Americans for the Arts recently announced that RAcc’s Public Art Program is one of the top five award-winning programs nationally, which makes us very proud. The Right Brain Initiative continues to grow. All 20 original schools returned and Portland Public Schools was able to add three new ones. We anticipate having ever-greater evidence of the value of integrated arts learning at the end of this first full year of programming. We thank all of our partners, funders and participants for this growing success.

  • Portland's High School System
    Portland’s High School System: Update on High School System Design Implementation Next Steps to Accelerate Progress December 12, 2012 PORTLAND PUBLIC SCHOOLS Carole Smith Office of the Superintendent 501 North Dixon Street • Portland, OR 97227 Superintendent (503) 916-3200 • Fax: (503) 916-3110 [email protected] December 12, 2012 To the Portland School Board: This report provides an update on the implementation of Portland Public Schools’ High School System Design (HSSD), a comprehensive reform of Portland’s high school system that was approved by the Portland School Board beginning in the fall of 2010, following an extensive two year public input process. HSSD changes were formally launched at the start the 2011-12 school year and will take full effect by the end of the 2014-15 school year. (High schools had already begun implementing a core program as early as 2010-11, and making other changes even earlier.) The high school reforms we instituted in 2010 were challenging, controversial and necessary steps. For the first time in nearly 30 years we closed a high school campus. We changed high school boundaries, modified transfer policies and overhauled programs at every high school. We made these difficult choices for one reason: our high school system was failing to serve too many students. Intolerable inequities across our high school system were a major cause of unacceptably poor results: in 2008-09, PPS had a 53 percent on-time graduation rate and a 30 percent achievement gap in graduation rates (between white and Hispanic students). The status quo was unacceptable.
