Dear Skyline families,

I hope you are enjoying your summer. We continue to keep the essential needs of our families a priority as we prepare for the 2020-21 school year. As you know, PPS announced last week that all PPS schools will be online until at least November. You can see the announcement by clicking here. I understand some families may still need to borrow a computer and may need internet access. PPS is committed to helping families receive both.

If your student needs to borrow a computer or you need access to the internet, please use this link to complete the following form to let us know. If you have contacted Mrs. Malone regarding a device, we have your information and there is no need to duplicate the form. We will work with you to find a time to pick up a computer from the school and determine the best option for internet access. If you have any questions, please email Mrs. Hiser mhiser@pps.net. 

We look forward to connecting with all of our families soon.

Celebrate your child's birthday and donate a book in their name to the Skyline Library for all to enjoy! We are excited to announce the Skyline Birthday Book Club in connection with Bound to Stay Bound Books.

In keeping with our commitment to student safety, last October PPS joined school districts across the state in using the SafeOregon Tip Line. We want to remind you about this important resource.

SafeOregon was funded by the Oregon Legislature as part of a statewide effort to improve school safety. It provides a secure means for anyone to anonymously report suspicious or imminently unsafe situations, such as threats of violence, fights, drugs and alcohol, weapons, bullying, harassment, intimidation or self-harm. 

Anyone, from students to parents to community members, can access the system in a variety of ways, including:

·         The “Report unsafe behavior” button found on every PPS school’s website

·         The SafeOregon website 

·         A live call/text (844-472-3367)

·         An email to tip@safeoregon.com

·         The mobile app that can be downloaded from your Smart Phone via iTunes or  Google Play

Trained staff are available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, to respond. 

Please be sure to share this information with your friends and family. Remind your students: If you see or hear something, say something – immediately.  Let’s work together to keep our community safe.

Dear PPS Families and Colleagues,

We proudly welcomed Governor Kate Brown to Sitton Elementary today for a tour of our limited in person instruction classrooms there and to look at the health and safety measures the school has implemented in anticipation of hybrid learning this spring. Our thanks to Principal Dana Nerenberg for hosting us at her wonderful school. 

Dear PPS Families and Staff,

This week, Superintendent Guerrero and senior leaders presented a COVID-19 school reopening update to the Board of Education. The update largely focused on the district’s plan to offer hybrid instruction to middle and high school grades by mid-April. This follows a similar announcement two weeks ago regarding kindergarten through 5th grades.

Dear PPS Families,

We are excited to offer student-athletes in Portland Public Schools an opportunity to participate in the Portland Interscholastic League’s first athletic competitions in over a year starting next week.

Dear PPS Families,

For those who were not able to attend the Explore Your K-5 Options event on February 18, we are offering the event again on Monday, March 8, from 6-8 p.m.
