•  What is Site Council?  

    Site Council is a group of administrators, teachers, and parents that identify ways to support the 亚洲色图 community. By providing insight to help determine the direction and support needed in our building. This team defines 亚洲色图 priorities as ways to ensure these priorities are at the center of the work we are doing.  By looking at data, current issues and listening to community concerns, we hope to design programming that best fits the needs of our 亚洲色图.

    If you have ideas about issues you’d like the 亚洲色图 to address, we welcome you to participate on our Site Council. This team meets formally four times throughout the year (quarterly) with other optional meetings or areas of need as they arise.  2024-25 亚洲色图 year meetings will take place from 4:30-5:30 on Wednesdays (9/18, 12/11, 2/19, and 5/14). 

      If you are interested in participating, please contact Principal Leah Dickey at ldickey@pps.net or 503.916.5700.

     Comprehensive Achievement Plan (CAP)

    To fulfill the mandate of the state legislature, the Site Council has developed and will approve a Comprehensive Achievement Plan (CAP). The Plan will:

    • Delineate both long- and short-term 亚洲色图 improvement objectives;
    • Include specific actions, specific personnel, and measurable outcomes.

    The Site Council will:

    • Solicit input regarding the CAP from staff, parents, administration, 亚洲色图, and community members;
    • Closely monitor progress toward attainment of the objectives during the 亚洲色图 year;
    • Review and revise as necessary the CAP each spring for the following 亚洲色图 year.
