     Skyline K-8 Community,

    Happy Friday! Our “Feed the Eagle Sign” is up and it looks AWESOME. Thank you to our Skyline K-8 Foundation and PTA for all of your support.

    Thank you for doing such a great job in turning in dismissal forms – it makes the process so much better. If there is a change in the regular schedule, please include all of the following information when contacting the office at skylineoffice@pps.net:

    Student’s name

    Dismissal change

    Day and date the change is required and how long it will be if an ongoing activity.

    Classroom teacher if known

    Submit at the beginning of the day – no later than noon - or prior to that day.

    For Middle School Students:

    Notes will be given to the student if there is a change from what they are expecting or they need to ride a bus that is not their home bus or is their same bus but they are going to a different stop. Thanks for helping us make sure everyone gets to where they are supposed to go.

    You may receive a verification form from your child(ren) this month. This means it has not been turned into the office yet. It’s important for the office to have correct and up to date information on file to be able to contact you when necessary. If you haven’t done so already, please review, make any necessary changes and then sign and return to the office as soon as possible.

    Don’t forget Back to School Night - Curriculum / TAG Info. Night is next Tuesday on September 25th from 6:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. We will meet in the gym at 6:00 p.m. where I will welcome families, introduce staff

    and the PBIS Team will go over new procedures. At 6:30 p.m. families will be dismissed to visit classrooms until 8:00 p.m.

    Teachers will be expected to go over their schedules, curriculum, classroom procedures and communication plans. We look forward to seeing you all there.

     Have a great weekend!

    Welcome to Skyline School!  We are a K-8 International Baccalaureate school settled on the top of the hills overlooking Portland and the Willamette Valley.  Our school is strongly supported by our parents and community.  We average over 4000 volunteer hours a year! This support translates into incredible learning experiences for our students.  As our students explore academic subjects and improve their skills, they do so in an environment that supports creativity, inquiry and open-mindedness.  Our committed staff creates a safe place for respectful and responsible learning, grounded in the IB philosophy for all students.  All of our K-5 classrooms are blended age to support peer-to-peer learning and deeper connections between students and teachers.  Our students participate in Physical Education, Music, Spanish and Technology every week.  Please contact the main office for further information and to set up a tour.

Principal's Message

  •  Announcing Skyline’s new principal BG Aguirre

    BG Aguirre

    June 2017

    Dear Skyline School Community, It is with great pleasure that I announce BG Aguirre as the new principal for Skyline School. BG is currently the principal at St. Helens High School, a position she has held since 2013. She served as assistant principal for five years prior to taking over as principal.

    BG earned her Bachelor’s degree in sociology and Spanish from Oregon State University, her Masters of Arts in teaching from Concordia University and her administrator license from Portland State University. Following her graduation from Concordia, BG worked as an elementary school teacher in the Beaverton School District, first at Vose Elementary for five years, then Kinnaman Elementary for three years. She spent a year in the Lincoln County School District in Newport, before moving to the St. Helens School District to serve as assistant principal and principal for St. Helens High School in 2008.

    BG has proven herself to be an effective school leader and is looking forward to leading Skyline for years to come. She has received International Baccalaureate MYP Level 1 training and IB Administration Level 2 training. BG is also well-versed in successfully running an AVID school. While at St. Helens, BG was an AVID district director, an AVID principal, attended multiple AVID strand trainings and successfully implemented AVID school-wide.

    Throughout her time in both the St. Helens and Beaverton School Districts, BG has gone above and beyond her stated duties to ensure that her community thrives. She is a fluent Spanish speaker and is an advocate for all students. She has had great success writing grants and securing funding for intervention programs, professional development and students in need. She deeply values collaboration between teachers, families and administrative staff to ensure the success of the school.

    BG is a dedicated wife and mom of three children ages 3, 5 and 7. In her free time, she loves watching her children participate in extra-curricular activities and spending time as a family. BG enjoys reading, playing golf and is an avid runner. BG tells me she is absolutely overjoyed to be back in elementary and to have the opportunity to work in her community. Please join me in congratulating BG in her new assignment as the principal for Skyline School!
