The stakes today have never been higher. In this complicated political environment, we are on a journey here in Oregon to deliver an unparalleled system of educational support to the 198 school districts across our state with an unabashed belief that every child deserves an outstanding education. With an equity-based mindset and a commitment to accountability throughout our systems of schools, we are excited for the future of public education in Oregon knowing full well that the road ahead requires courage, wisdom, listening, collaboration, and a commitment to what we know is right so that every child, regardless of their personal circumstances, can succeed in school and live a full and engaged life.
