Please join us for Project Community Care on Saturday, August 28th, 9am-12pm!
With the increase in vaccinations in Oregon, PPS leadership has now approved the planning of Community Care Day. Project Community Care Day is an annual tradition and a wonderful opportunity to help beautify our school grounds to be held on Saturday, August 28th, 9am-12pm.
Community members come together to beautify grounds just in time for kids to come back to school. Your time and energy will make a direct impact on students, families, teachers, and the neighborhood! Together, we can grow community in our schools. Please bring your own face mask, water, snacks, gloves and gardening tools.

As part of reopening Portland Public Schools in the 2021-22 school year, the district must submit a plan to the Oregon Department of Education. As part of the requirement, PPS is asking for feedback on the plan.
Dear PPS Families,
The 2021-22 school year is fast approaching, and we continue to prepare to safely reopen our schools for in-person learning. We want to make sure you are aware of upcoming opportunities to receive a COVID-19 vaccine during registration at our nine comprehensive high schools.
Dear PPS Students, Families and Staff,
As we finalize our last Back to School FAQ sections, we wanted to share with you a couple of updates. First, the district’s Office of Internal Performance Audit recently presented to the Board of Education its audit of our health and safety practices for hybrid learning last spring. We are pleased and proud to say that auditors reported no findings. From last week’s presentation:
Dear Colleagues,
The public health guidance is clear--vaccines are the best way to prevent the spread and the severity of COVID. Today we are announcing a COVID-19 vaccine requirement for all PPS staff.
