Dear César Chávez families,
It is with humility and great honor that I get to write this welcome back to school letter as your Principal. I have gotten to know many of you over the last two years that I served as your Assistant Principal and I look forward to meeting new students and families as the school year starts.
This can be an exciting and nervous time for students and families as we look forward to the 2019-2020 school year. We are working tirelessly at school to ensure that all students and families feel welcome, safe and engaged at school.
Please join me in welcoming new staff to our Chávez community:
We also have some familiar faces in new roles:
Here are a few updates and reminders as we embark on a new school year.
I look forward to working with each of you this school year. I am grateful and excited for the opportunity to lead this amazing school community. Please do not hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely,

Queridas familias de César Chávez,
Es con humildad y gran honor que puedo escribir esta carta de bienvenida a la escuela como su directora. En los últimos dos años, he llegado a conocer a muchos de ustedes como su subdirectora y espero conocer nuevos estudiantes y familias a medida que comienza el año escolar.
Este puede ser un tiempo emocionante y nervioso para los estudiantes y las familias, ya que esperamos con anticipación el año escolar 2019-2020. Estamos trabajando sin parar en la escuela para garantizar que todos los estudiantes y familias se sientan bienvenidos, seguros y comprometidos en la escuela.
Me gustaría dar la bienvenida al nuevo personal a nuestra comunidad de Chávez:
También hay caras conocidas en nuevos roles:
Aquí hay un par de actualizaciones y recordatorios mientras nos embarcamos en un nuevo año escolar.

Dear PPS Families,
We are so grateful to our educators and our community who have continued to support our students through these times of transition this year. The presidential election and its fallout, especially the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, have been disturbing and unsettling for all of us, and the feeling of unease continues as next week’s inauguration of Joe Biden nears. We know it can be an especially difficult time for our students and we remain optimistic about the power of democracy and education as they try to make sense of the events and issues.
The Oregon Department of Education (ODE) has issued adapted versions of its annual reports for every school and school district, including Portland Public Schools. The 2019-20 reports do not include data on statewide assessments, class size or attendance. That data is typically included but was not gatherable because classes were conducted online starting in March during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Dear PPS Families,
I join all those in public education across the country who denounce the attack on the U.S. Capitol yesterday. The violent and ultimately failed insurrection at the U.S. Capitol was traumatic to witness for all of us, including our students, but I remain optimistic about their future and our country’s.
Dear PPS Community,
As we begin 2021, we want to update you on the work that has been completed in the enrollment and program balancing process. On December 17, the Southeast Guiding Coalition (SEGC) held the final meeting of Phase 1 work that focused on middle school grades and finalized its recommendations.
