Portland Public School Share 'Learn About Options For Your K-5 Student At Virtual Event' On March 8 From 6-8 P.M

Press release from Portland Public Schools:

February 25, 2021

Dear PPS Families,

"For those who were not able to attend the Explore Your K-5 Options event on February 18, we are offering the event again on Monday, March 8, from 6-8 p.m.

This virtual event will provide information to families with K-5 students interested in thematic focus options, alternative and charter schools, and dual language immersion programs – and will include a general session to learn about connecting to your neighborhood school and applying for transfer, followed by two chances for deeper explorations in school breakout rooms.

The general session and dual language program break out rooms will be available in multiple languages, and interpretation will be available in Spanish, Vietnamese, Somali, Russian, Cantonese and Mandarin.

Learn more about K-5 options, including additional instructions for the March 8 event, at pps.net/k-5options. The virtual meeting link will be posted by March 1.

Please also note that the deadline for applying to most elementary school options is March 16. You can apply at pps.net/schoolchoice."
