Welcome to Stephenson Elementary School! The Stephenson Learning Community is committed to meeting the educational, social, emotional and physical needs of all students, regardless of their race, gender, background or ability. We work diligently to build relationships with every student and their families so that we may create an environment that supports every child on their individual road to academic success. All staff members, the PTA, the Foundation and the parent community as a whole, work as a cohesive unit to ensure that every child can participate in a rigorous academic program K-5. We value all stakeholders because we know it takes all of us to create a school of excellence.
Be well,
Carlos Galindo, Principal
Stephenson Elementary
Go Lions!
Dear PPS Community,
Saturday night, gunshots were fired outside of a district-wide basketball tournament held at Franklin High School. Fortunately, no one was seriously injured and the suspect is now in custody, but if you have any information about the incident please call 503-823-3333 or utilize the SafeOregon tipline.
Dear PPS Families,
As we prepare for the winter sports season, we want to share a few reminders for our spectators.
Dear families, students, and colleagues,
It has been a joy to visit learning spaces over the past four months and see our students reengaged in their classroom learning and school activities. I am pleased to observe our students interacting with peers and diving into new curriculum materials.
This has been a very productive time for Portland Public Schools. My appreciation to all the dedicated Team PPS members who work everyday to make our school system better and stronger.
Dear PPS Community,
Every single person in Portland Public Schools believes that our learning spaces must be safe, stable, and secure, and that we have a shared responsibility to ensure the safety and well-being of the students under our care. We recognize that recent events, both locally and nationally, have rattled our community.
Superintendent Guerrero issued a broader statement about gun violence and its impacts on our schools, but we also want to explain how we both keep schools safe, and keep you informed.
