Oregon
PTA is organizing a series of monthly virtual meetings where we invite
experts and stakeholders to share their perspectives on school funding
and to discuss them with our members.
The
purpose of these events is to help parents and families to understand
school funding as it is right now, to explore challenges and potential
changes, and to empower families to advocate for better school funding
in Oregon for all children.
