Due Process in Proposed Grant-area K-8 Boundary Changes
Portland Public Schools (PPS) has rushed the process for changing school boundaries for the Sabin, Alameda, and Beaumont schools without adequate notification or representation of those families most affected. With a plan to vote on a final recommendation on February 7, 2011, PPS is poised to make a narrowly-made decision using questionable assumptions. We request that the PPS Board - Postpone any January or February 2011 vote on this matter. - Provide representation of Non-PPS families and all affected neighborhood associations to the Boundary Advisory (BAC) committee. - Conduct a comprehensive Grant Cluster Review to ensure an equal, transparent and long-term solution to the enrollment balancing process for all Northeast Portland elementary and middle schools that feed Grant High School.
