PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE

Hello Atkinson Families,

This has been a busy week of internal hiring within PPS. I will be holding a parent informational meeting to share what we know about staffing for next year on the evening of Tuesday, April 4. By that time, I should be able to give you a fairly accurate understanding of what to expect next year. Please be on the lookout for detailed information on the time of the meeting and how to access the Zoom link.

I hope you were all able to get out and enjoy the sunshine on Saturday. We are all looking forward to the week ahead and I wish you a wonderful evening.

Beth Essex

Interim Principal

MENSAJE DE LA DIRECTORA

Hola familias de Atkinson,

Esta ha sido una semana ocupada de contratación interna dentro de PPS. Tendré una reunión informativa para padres para compartir lo que sabemos sobre la dotación de personal para el próximo año en la noche del martes 4 de abril. En ese momento, debería poder darles una comprensión bastante precisa de lo que pueden esperar el próximo año. Esté atento a la información detallada sobre la hora de la reunión y cómo acceder al enlace de Zoom.

Espero que todos hayan podido salir y disfrutar del sol el sábado. Todos esperamos con ansias la próxima semana y les deseo una noche maravillosa.

Beth Essex

Director interino

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.
