Dear Odyssey Community,
I am honored to have been chosen as the new Odyssey principal. Since starting my teaching career in Florida almost twenty five years ago, I have been committed to transformational learning and am excited to move to Odyssey and the embrace of experiential learning.
I spent the bulk of my teaching career in Brooklyn teaching high school and it was during that time that I was part of forming 9th grade institutes which committed themselves to interdisciplinary learning and team work. It is with great excitement that I look forward to more of this work at Odyssey.
During my time as an administrator I have served at high school, k-5, and k-8 levels and am looking forward to returning to the k-8 world. This is truly a journey that I am honored to be on and looking forward to meeting all of you and getting to know the students, teachers, staff, and families.
I grew up here in the PNW and my two sons are enrolled in PPS. I will have a 7th grader and 9th grader next year and truly understand how important it is that our schools provide opportunities for our children to grow academically and emotionally. Critical thinking is key and I truly believe that by being self-reflective and choosing empathy and understanding, we can prepare ourselves for engagement in the world around us.
I am excited to get to know you and please do not hesitate to introduce yourselves and stop by and say hi once we get the new school year up and running. Looking towards a great year together!
Best,
Dr. Eryn Berg
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.
