If the language was the problem, we could have fixed it about 6 months after it was implemented YEARS ago. But PPS didn't do THIER due diligence.
The language states (you know, the part @JonGarc1a DIDN’T HIGHLIGHT) that PPS must review discipline and providing a report 2x/yr so we can create NEW LANGUAGE 2 address disproportionate discipline. NE1 want to FOIA those reports? Wait... PAT already did and THEY DON'T EXIST.

When is the last time a teacher had the power to suspend kids? Last I checked, the decision is left to principals, and thier bosses can reverse any decision made by the building level...
When you see BIPOC and SPED students disproportionately disciplined in schools, why does the Portland Association of Teachers’ contract have a mandatory minimum on student discipline?

Garcia, if you want to highlight language change by your team, how about PPS striking the words from article 9 “Full Continuum of Special Education Services” for students. Do your job. Find funding for special Ed. Run out of places to look? Quit and donate your 6 figures.

Garcia, this is gross. You know as well as anybody else that the contract was bargained between PAT and PPS and the language you see there was agreed on by both parties. Yes, these minimums need to be changed, but not by giving more power to principals to unilaterally decide.

Q What kind of leadership vilifies it’s workforce while it cuts SpED positions, pays para educators non livable wages, and can’t staff it’s buildings or keep them safe for communities?

Maddow is blowing my mind. Trump is not only leaving the Open Skies treaty he is trashing the planes! Making it impossible for Biden to easily rejoin. It’s the program that watches the Russians for 34 countries. He is a treasonous Russian asset to the end. Any Democrats home?

I just looked up my ballot online and saw it was rejected because of something re my signature. I called and was able to fix it with a series of identity confirming protocols. If you live in a state where you can check on your ballot online please do! I never would have known.

As a starting point for this project, we are beginning to plan out the development of an original anime studio that will be able to pay animators a fair salary (about two to four times the current industry standards) within the next three years.

Storytime: So this is a true story from dinner with a friend not long after the 2016 election. I knew he was socially and fiscally conservative, but he surprisingly said, "Yeah, I voted for Trump, but it's not like… instagram.com/p/CDHsRA-hREG/…
