Bienvenidos a este nuevo año escolar. Por primera vez en once años, Woodlawn es una Escuela Primaria. Nuestros estudiantes del 5to -7mo grado pasaron a la Escuela Media Ockley Green este otoño, juntamente con sus compañeros de Beach, Península y Chief Joseph-Ockley Green. 

At the end of every school year, the School-family Partnership program sponsors Student Recognition Award ceremonies for successful students across the district. These award ceremonies are essential to honor and reward students whose achievements represent the best of PPS, and to inspire their fellow students in the coming school year. We’re excited to celebrate these students and are looking forward to sharing their stories with you.

During the SkillsUSA State Competition, this April 20-21, the Benson team landed a bucket full of medals!  All gold medalists qualify for the National Skills USA conference in Louisville, Kentucky June 19th - 23rd.

Please congratulate all who participated.  They all were fantastic and made Benson Tech proud!

Hello PPS families and staff,

On April 4 I presented my proposed budget for the 2017-18 school year to our School Board. I want to make sure you know what our spending priorities are, and what they will mean for you and your PPS student or students.

This is a budget of difficult choices. We made extra cuts to central administration to prioritize direct services for students, but we still must make some painful cuts to our schools. Although the cuts will affect each school differently, they will be noticeable. This proposed budget is the first step in a long process, and we will be seeking your input and engagement as we manage this difficult fiscal climate.

CORRECTION: 2nd budget listening session is Tuesday, April 25
