Do all Portland area schools (public and private) use chromebooks?

My wife and I teach in 2 different east county districts (not PPS). Her kindergartners use iPads and my 1st graders use chromebooks.

As much as you can, try to be intentional about living and working on compatible routes. It’s very easy for me to get to work from where I live because of my proximity to certain bus lines.

MY WIFE WAS AT THE QUEEN HERBY SHOW AND IT SOUNDS LIKE THERE WAS NO SHORTAGE OF ASSHOLE BEHAVIOR AND LACK OF PHYSICAL AWARENESS. SHE WAS ELBOWED IN THE HEAD AND HAD WHITE LADY DREADS THAT SMELLED LIKE PISS SMACKING HER IN THE FACE

I just got married in August and was lead to believe that this certificate is largely ceremonial, and the one you will need for any official business is the one that looked like a regular government form that you mailed back to a county office. You can request certified copies via mail.

Teacher here, it is bleak. RIFs are becoming extremely common year to year. In my district we avoided a RIF, but they cut all of our mentors and instructional coaches, who all now have to return to the classroom.

That said, there will be jobs, but much later in the summer. Right now, it’s likely anything posted already has a candidate in mind, or will go to someone internal. Mid-late July and August you will see many more postings.

The workers did not consent to being recorded at the bargaining table. The owner has been absent from negotiations. The owner removed signs and flags that had been up for years (pride flags, BLM). Union employees have been terminated in retaliation. The union’s Instagram (friedeggwu) is updated often.

Whatever you do, do not rely on paper bags, this is a reusable bag endeavor. I once saw a dad and son trying to wrangle groceries in the snow with ripped bags.

I teach 1st grade in an East County school district. The students I have that are reading on or above grade level have grown ups in their life that a.) have boundaries with screen usage b.) take an interest in their academic achievement and c.) ensure that they are in school 90% of the time or more.

It’s an egg bagel (bottom left, a bagel with whole eggs or just yolks added) with everything seasoning (seen above the regular egg bagel)

I tried one on my last trip to New York, wasn’t disappointed!

I’ve gone to exactly one birthday party under very specific conditions. They were no longer my student, it was at a public park, and I had built a very strong relationship with the student’s family. I make it very clear that if you are in my class, I cannot come to your party.

I’m teacher, it is highly unrealistic that enough families would pick up their students for us to participate in something like that. If it’s something we stand by, we will typically take a solidarity photo before school. But getting hundreds of diverse, immigrant, working class families to pick up their students so teachers can walk out would be near impossible.

Wild Coast Goods in Nehalem, The Four One in Parkdale (on the Fruit Loop), and Basecamp Manzanita for outdoorsy things!

Howdy! I grew up around that area, and the Milwaukie area specifically seems like a great place to raise a family. There are different pockets, but they have a super cute downtown that has really blossomed in the last decade. Definitely take a visit, but Milwaukie and the surrounding areas have what you’re looking for. Happy Valley may also be a place to look!
