Portland Superintendent’s Notebook: Developing and implementing clear, efficient and accountable systems
This column is the final installment in my series detailing the impacts of the new Portland Public Schools five-year strategic plan. This month, I’m focusing on our “systems” priority.

Letter: Trump doesn’t care unless it profits him
We are in grave danger of losing our rights granted to us the American people. The actions of Mr. Trump and Elon Musk go against everything this country and the Constitution stand for. Example: Banning the AP from attending the White House news briefings, closing and removing people from their positions solely who did not […]

Letter: Dissent is more important now than ever before
So far, Trump and Project 2025 are doing a bang-up job. Many feel mentally bombarded by the barrage of wildly unproven lies coming out of this White House.
