Hello Harriet Tubman families,
All current 6th and 7th grade scholars are in the process of forecasting for their elective classes next school year. We value family input in this process and are also striving to utilize this process as an opportunity for our scholars to practice good decision-making skills. Please speak with your scholar about their choices, which are outlined HERE.
There is no guarantee that your scholar will get their top choices, however we will strive to give them as many that will fit in their schedule as possible. As a reminder, all scholars will have year-long Math, Science, Language Arts, Social Sciences, and one quarter of PE and Health on their schedule. If you have any questions regarding this process or what your scholar chose, please reach out to Ms. Pierce (Assistant Principal) at npierce@pps.net.
This year, the 8th grade commencement ceremony will be on THURSDAY, JUNE 9th at HTMS.
Time TBD and announced at a later date.
Congratulations, Legends!
Dear Duniway School Community:
I am pleased to announce that Philip Rafferty will be the new principal at Duniway Elementary School.

Dear PPS families and staff,
This week, Multnomah County health officials made an announcement about masking, due to the current COVID-19 surge. The Health Department is asking people to wear masks indoors until new coronavirus case counts and hospitalizations start to fall, and strongly recommend that people wear masks in schools. The current increase in COVID-19 cases is expected to peak in mid-June, when PPS’s school year ends.
