		<description><![CDATA[I ran across an interesting video from a PPS boundary meeting held last January.  In it, the PPS representative says that the district doesn&#8217;t have projected enrollment data broken down by section.  They were using K-5 trend data from the past 10 years to make boundary decisions. Considering the number of portables that PPS has [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[School Board Meeting, March 14, 2011 Here’s something you should be concerned about.  In Portland we are developing a school system that is similar to the separate but equal schools in the South in the 1950’s. Only the determiner is not color of skin but financial circumstance.  And the main differences are manifested not just [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Bulldog1 has mentioned a few times that PPS was fined for illegal use of the 1995 bond funds.  I checked it out.  This excerpt is from an Oregonian story by Betsy Hammond printed twelve years ago today: Portland&#8217;s school board, excoriated by its teachers Monday for spending too much on other priorities and too little [...]]]></description>
